Hi, I would like to know based on what the AI cars/trucks turn on the lights. It happened to me many times, at sunset, when it is not yet dark but even more clear that on the highway (for example) the AI cars had the lights off. In rainy conditions it is very dangerous.
In the mirrors they are not seen to arrive. Does it happen to you too?
Thanks

yes, i think SCS must adjust this a bit more.

if you like you can try my traffic mod. there you will have all day long lights on, and increased traffic.
also faster vehicles in night and if it´s rains.

So it depends on the mod? I am currently using Real Traffic Density and Ratio 1.30.b by Cip

EDIT: I try your AI and Cip fixed version.

I am using DP´s ai traffic mod.
I did modify that ai car file and now all of the ai cars use lights all the time and that is why i can see them better in the same way as i can see real life cars in the road too,in bad weather or in good weather,when they have lights on.

You are welcome.I hope that it will work for you too.
You can modify the files with Winrar.
Unpack the files first and then pack it again and unpack the packed files and choose what settings of the mod you like to use and save them before using the files.
DP´s ai mods usually have different options inside the files,so that people can use it how they like,if they know how to open them first.

I don't know: i use DP’s Realistic Traffic 1.0 Beta 1 and yesterday from Pescara to Nice all cars had lights on. Today I try from Germany to Austria and half traffic have lights on and half traffic have off.

EDIT:
I tried the fixed version of Cip and everything seems ok: all the cars, trucks and buses have lights on at all times of the day. It seems like a good mod, in general.

It is good that you did find an ai mod that works well for you,but you can change the settings in the Dp's ai car mod,because it has different options for people to use inside the files.
For example maximum safety for all:All of the ai cars use lights all the time or minimum safety for all:Ai cars use lights only when they need to do that even if night comes or it starts to rain,they use lights as late as possible then.
That same ai car mod works in the Ats in the same way.

The AI cars should respond to our indicators. It feels we are using those indicators for nothing.

Indicating for nothing? As in the real world you mean? :P
