I thought minimum for the long tankers (in the US anyway) was triple rear axle. Front axle can lift when not loaded.supersobes wrote: ↑29 Jun 2022 12:47Yes, that is normal. If you had a two axle 53 foot tanker, you would never be able to fill it up all the way. More volume in the tank means more capacity to fill more liquid which means more cargo weight. To deal with the extra weight, you need more axles to be legal.clifflandmark wrote: ↑29 Jun 2022 11:13 do 53 ft fuel tankers have to be 4 axles ? There's no option 2 axle for 53 fuel tankers. There might be regulation in US about these tankers. only 4 axle option is available for 53 ft's.

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
Flight, we can't see it either in game. Irl, you can't always feel the wind either (if you're inside a building, riding in a low profile car, etc). But you can always see wind effects and hear the sound. The same is true in many video games: wind causes plants to move faster or a sound to play. I don't think we have either of these in game. Nothing will ever feel completely real, but at least we can have some effect. And the look is the start.
Sadly, that was only for a couple weeks. Back to the car. But yes, there are a lot of forces I experienced in the cab, most noticeably braking too hard or hitting bumps. I don't think a game could quite do the same thing for me (without a motion sim); however, again, from an outside the cab view, something like My Truck Game has a far better perspective on how a truck bounces, lugs, etc in an offroad environment.Acceleration/deceleration? You said you drive a dump truck now right. I assume loaded and unloaded you feel that difference in real life. The same feel can't happen in a game. Bogging down and longer braking yes but you don't feel that push of weight in cargo. Your asking for too much. But as usual when people disagree, they are defending SCS or annoying because we don't see that change valid.

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
Yes, I have 1200 hours in game. I have a lot of problems with the stability system, though. The higher it goes, the more unrealistic it seems. Perhaps it isn't the setting itself, but SCS road design since real life highway curves are banked and sweeping, not inserted into a straight road like a train set piece. I should try it higher while driving through Reforma and see how it is.
I have the same problem with the brake slider. The farther left it goes, the weaker the brakes get. I don't want weak brakes especially given AI driving, so instead, I use either a 50 or 70 ton weight mod which makes the truck feel like a train, but now the jake brake has a purpose.
I think I have, although maybe I could adjust my settings more. It's not a bad game, but I wish I had way more control over my playing experience.For you to complain as much as you do, you need to have played the game a whole lot and experienced everything the game has to offer for committed sim players.
Well, I think someone needs to complain, especially about things that could be improved. As long as this game has been out, I think we should have had a number of simple things added/unrestricted. The pace, however, is slow, and progress outside of maps is limited.And don't get me wrong, I got nothing against you as a person but it's already getting old and annoying opening the forum up and getting welcomed with nothing else other than complaining posts.
If I bug you that much, though, you're welcome to add me to the foe list. It wouldn't hurt my feelings.
On a separate note, what @pigbrother shared is brilliant. That's something already in game that has way more movement than the vehicles it rides in.
I also agree with @Eugene We need way more suspension effects in game: I was passing a semi on a bridge last night, and every time he went over an expansion joint, the trailer hopped and the roll up door shook. I wish that was a thing in game.
Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
Cool to see the Rain sensor function is a game feature and not something a modder needs to add to a truck mod., same thing with the suspension feature in 1.44 .

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
An interesting thing in the game files is \vehicle\trailer_owned\scs_drybulk\references.pur where you can see all the references that SCS presumably used while making the trailer. The file requires PureRef program to open (you can enter zero in custom amount field to download the program for free).

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
Is there a reference file for each of the ownable trailers? Or just the dry bulk?

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
@SuchManor I believe all trailers have reference files.

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
I only see one for the dry bulk trailer. I'm kind of thinking SCS might have left it in there by mistake. Not even the fuel tankers have a reference file.

Re: ATS 1.45 Open Beta Discussion
It could be that too. But, if I'm not mistaken, I already found it from Dryvan/Reefer, but I'm not sure if it was in "PureRef" format. Anyway.
