If you would make a tram, the hardest part will be the curves. The game sees the object as one solid block and it will rotate as a whole. You can't make bendable sections (we tried this with trains, but the current mover system does not allow this; it will make the sections disjointed). This is a big problem when you are going to make tight tram curves...

One of the best places to put tram movers in ETS2 world is in Rīga. There is one tram track goes paralelly with Brīvības prospect (a.k.a. A2/E77 outside of Rīga) until the crossroad with Ropāžu iela, which means, that there is almost not any curves IRL, but with scale limits of ETS2 you can really make it straight, and it will dissapears in the crossroad, I showed in given link. ;)
I hope, RacerToft will take it as idea. :)

And, yes, I know, that it is Romanian map progress topic.

The only straightest sectio of the bucharest tram is from Danny Huwe (Razoare) Square to Frigocom...
Trouble is, most of the trams that go there are Tatra T4R...

Oh, please stop it.. As far as I remember, it's not "Euro Tram Simulator 2".. Tram lines are enough. ;) Meanwhile I must focus on more important things. Btw, I'm sorry Michael, I know you're a train/tram guy.. :lol:

@jscharpf Looks like you had a very Romanian experience, mate! Glad you enjoyed it! :)

This is good idea and we can do it on this map. All thinks in this map doesn't must be realistic .This is my opinion. Sorry for mistakes :D

Romania is fantastic, in my opinion. I like the city/country life of Arad, no crime, just nice. I feel in love with the country.

My wife has cooked Sarmale several times over the years. I love it! We also had some while in Romania.
The only thing I did not like is "tuica"??? much too strong for me I am not a heavy drinker lol. :oops:

However, your wine is incredibly good (I managed to sneak a few bottles from the Vrancea region in my luggage back to the states :)

Also, I would say your roads are in very good shape, the freeways are wonderful to drive on and see the sights.. I did not know what to expect when I rented a car in Arad to drive east. I was pleasantly surprised.

These words make me happy.

Guys don't make trams! These things make the traffic very hard.

:shock:
And i agree. The traffic in Bucharest is like a jungle.
Playing PM since 2015. Why? Because I like this mod. A bit laggy, but very well made.
Favorite truck brand: DAF.

Letting trams go on certain lines within the traffic is impossible. Movers don't stop at traffic lights and don't mind driving through your truck and AI cars. AI traffic on the other hand can't be limited to only one course. So, if trams, they would only be possible on an extra driveway using underpasses at intersections.
