Trailers and Cargo

[MandelSoft]

I don't know if that's a good idea. It may break some companies...

[bumbumek]

True. I deleted some trailers 2 weeks ago, and I lost IGLO company (was totally invisible on the map, and freight market).

Removing a trailer will not break a company unless that company's outgoing was ONLY pulled by that specific mod trailer. In which case, just add default scs trailer info to the cargo folder to reenable the company.

bumbumek; I just checked IGLO out of curiosity. Disabling Promods trailers shouldn't affect IGLO at all as the only trailers connected to it are stock scs ones. If you removed the Promods cargo (canned fish/seafood) then that would have caused the problem as those are the only outgoing cargo for the company.

Every time there is a Promods update, the first thing I do is remove the transporters and change the cargo for IKEA. (Maybe they do sell diggers, but that would be a huge flat pack to take home.) Because Promods now requires Scandinavia, they could actually drop their truck transporters completely and just connect their companies with the default scs truck cargo. Save some space in the mod not having to have the models too.

Yeah I don't know why ProMods still includes the not-very-realistic truck transport trailers. SCS's look better too. I just want the map to be honest, not trailers.

Ahum, please explain the "not-very-realistic" aspect of the trailers. If we don't know what's wrong with them, we can't improve them

the scania's and volvo's on wrong type of trailer. the other trailers need some skin prettifying lol

[Volleybal4life]

Can you please show an example of a correct trailer? And what you mean by 'skin prettifying'?

[stummer]

You talk about this trailer?


Yes, it could need some small improvements - but as you see, it's not a "wrong type"...

Just stating that something is wrong doesn't help. This will still leave us wondering how we should improve this situation. So, give concrete examples of things that are wrong and what you would like us to do to improve that. I'm not a trailer expert (and frankly, I don't think most of the team is an expert either), so you have to point out in more detail what is wrong...

We don't yet know if we will include the truck transporters in our pack.
