question regarding convoy and mod in 1.45, what if i have added some custom accessory parts like sideskirts, will only the sideskirts display as a box/be invisible or the whole truck ?

[Optional Features]

I'm not sure why are you surprised, since you expected that to be the answer. Surely not what you would like to hear, but here we are. You're welcome!

I actually didn't expect it to be expressed that way, no.

If I was part of the team of a company making a simulator, I would say something like "well, no: this wouldn't have been a feature on ____ list of models, but it is on ____ list of models and will also be on future additions to our truck lineup."

Saying of course it isn't realistic makes it sound like realism isn't even the goal (which is obvious, but normally isn't expressed from a yellow name).

Some people will go out of their way to go overboard with their criticisms to the point where it is borderline to outright bashing ones product because what they wanted for features or updates was not in there.

I was hoping for an improved AI which did not get addressed yet, which is ok I'll keep waiting.

here we go again, first they complain feauters are restricted and not an option, now they complain feauters are not restricted according to truck generation, what do you want ?

Custom accessories will just be invisible. No green box, just nothingness.

hm, i can live with that

Well, with our monthly patches, I would hope for fixes to long-reported bugs like the log loader cab and the 16 foot tall cattle trailer. We're not getting those apparently ever.

We're not getting new cargo, and we're not getting more delivery points.

As for AI, I also want to see that, but it doesn't seem to be a priority.

I'm honest and direct. No point in arguing with you either. We can't please everyone, someone will always complain about something. On this regard, it is a feature you can literally choose to turn ON or OFF at your discretion, for whichever trucks you will drive. Some people might just use the feature for every truck they drive, some might not. You can choose what you prefer. Don't like the feature at all? Keep it off then.

Have fun trying out 1.45, though! I hope the rain sensor option won't ruin the whole update for you.

EDIT:

Just had to chime in for this one too - you've been here for a while. Certainly you must have noticed that new cargo tends to show up with every new map DLC. Same with new company prefabs. Are we that bad?

Most trucks in my company have automatic headlights and wipers, literally one of the most useful features, I got so used to it IRL, sometimes when I'm driving a truck without that option, I start wondering why the visibility is poor

[xXCARL1992Xx]

so, ATS got silos, does it mean ETS2 will also get Silos ? wich would mean Feldbinder isnt far off
