Not likely, search for ferry bug
Time and distance for ferries is not used when calculating, and shortest/fastest is always used, payout depends on driven distance, alas you loose money if you choose the correct route over land

I don't really understand why you would even want those ferries in the game.. It's a trucking sim, not a ferry sim.. And it's not that far to drive from Helsinki to Turku to take the ferry to Stockholm over there?

There are no ferries going from Stockholm to Helsinki, as i see on Google Maps. Neither from Nynäshamn to Helsinki. The one in Stockholm goes to Turku and Tallinn and the one in Nynäshamn is going to Ventspils, Gdansk and Visby.

That is true and they also operate from Helsinki to Tallinn and Tallink Silja operates from Stockholm to Riga.

From those websites it is possible to see the routes for both of those ferry companies.

Hi,

Sorry but those ferries will not be added in 2.0 for the reasons plykkegaard and Volleybal4life have already given
- Ferry bug : Time and distance for ferries is not used when calculating, and shortest/fastest is always used.
- It's a trucking sim, not a ferry sim..

The ferry connexions from Finland will so be :
- Stockholm-Turku
- Helsinki-Tallinn
- Vaasa-Umea (not yet confirmed for 2.0)

Regards,
Platypus
