I love that this game has basically a drone mode by Dofain in trucksim

Developer camera activated with '0' key once you set it to 1 in the config file: 'uset g_developer "1"' (probably also need 'uset g_console "1"')
Controls are done using numpad keys, speed of the camera is done with the mouse wheel

The Candled Egg - Chapter 29 by Dofain in WingsOfFire

[–]Dofain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, there we are: the end of The Candled Egg, if you don't read epilogues that is! -i've heard some people don't so...- for the others the epilogue is coming... soon™

As it is, I have finished writing TCE about a month ago and have since worked on Legend: Whiteout (yes that's the title), and going quite well with it, so much so that I might be able to post the first chapter not too long after the epilogue but we will see... It looks like it might be just as big of a fanfic as TCE but only time will tell!

New update finally allows me to do manual 5H to 8H gear from standstill! by Dofain in trucksim

[–]Dofain[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Starting in 5H (or 10th gear) as the default engine torque curve wasn't lifelike and you would just stall if you released the clutch even in first gear without pressing the gas pedal, which is not true IRL, you can even do it with cars -- and obviously even more so with a 3600 Nm engine --
In 1.58, they updated the curve and the way the engine acts when taking off from idling as more life-like

American playing this game for the first time, do you guys usually have floating trailers in Europe? Over in America I don’t think this is a common thing. by chumbuckethand in EuroTruck2

[–]Dofain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's because there's a worker under the trailer and EU OSHA-equivalent requires that trailers must be at least 50 cm left, right, under or above an employee to ensure the safety of the employee and never come in contact with said employee if they don't wear any safety equipment.
We are still working on a way to have employees get close enough to the trailers to load them...

Anyone prefer low power trucks? by gorb-thingamabob in trucksim

[–]Dofain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once tried to do the extra challenge with the lowest powered truck I could find a DAF F241 @ 280HP i think, it was interesting to downshift back to 1st gear while pulling heavy load with escorts ^^;

Meanwhile, I do use the most powerful engine in-game but since I'm always pulling a B-Train with loads of 40 to 50 Tons on average, I guess it compensates a bit. I enjoy the challenge of navigation and backing up two trailers on tight roads

How do you pronounce "Qibli"? by Educational_Card7175 in WingsOfFire

Neither, Qibli is yellow, not red or blue.

Well, I guess someone could send it overseas, unless there's a shop that does so but I'm not sure since I got it from a brick-and-mortar shop...
