@werewoooooooolf

I misinterpreted this twitter post.
I thought there was no other reason for SCS to put this open-ended question on social media other than to tease one or more upcoming features; I mean why would you ask out when your own forum is bustling with ideas & suggestions. I was wrong in thinking that & have been corrected since. ;)

Is anyone else bothered by how useless the NG DAF retarder is below 50/40km??? It's decent above that mark but once the truck slows down to 50 or 40 it's stopping power is laughable.

@55sixxx you think the DAF 2021 retarder is bad? Sounds like you've never tried the Next Gen Scania retarder.
But to answer the question, i think the DAF 2021 has a great retarder. Even below 50 km/h.

Actually, the NG Scania retarder is my second favorite, it has 5 stages and on the last you get amazing stopping power. Well, at least it is so in my 650S.

the SCS gearboxes have no auxiliary brake defined, so you only have the retarder, if you use galimims drivetrain mod you have proper ZF Intarder, meaning it will start to use the engine brake with higher level of Intarder use, because, now that i learn, the ZF one is RPM independent (Secondary Retarder), where the Scania one is RPM dependent (Primary Retarder)

That's probably why i think the retarder is great on the DAF 2021. I use galimim's drivetrain mod.
I should try with SCS gearboxes again. I don't know if i will, since galimim's made them realistic (and better), in my opinion.

I wonder if we'll ever see accessories for the XF, XG and XG+ being introduced this year... And i'm not talking about a tuning pack, i'm saying just some light bars for the roof, some slots on the grill and perhaps a painted grill (Although I don't think we'll ever see that last one outside a tuning pack, unfortunately).
