[Fixed] [1.01] Game crash when opening job list

[rayden]

I though I was just being lucky but tonight I have reached that limit too, and when there is only two cities left to discover, the famous crash on the freight market just happened, I guess that +1000 jobs just got available. I have Promods + DLC and I'm on level 32. I'm glad they put some light over this problem and a solution it's possible, hopefully in a near future, till then I start making house calls instead of using the Freight Market

After reading Max post about those +1000 jobs limit of the UI, a simple solution would be to when opening the Freight Market, instead of showing by default all the jobs available, only the ones on the city you are at the moment. Most of the people don't look for jobs very far or outside the town where they just finished a job. The UI could show only jobs on a city at a time. That would solve this problem and should not be too hard for the SCS guys to implement that.

That would solve the Freight Market, but it wouldn't help those looking for quick jobs as people aren't so bothered by current city as they are payoff.

I suppose they could offer options tickable options such as "county" "price" "distance" and limit the returned results to categories selected (though I imagine that would be a fairly big UI overhaul to do.)

@Nico I meant trailers not trucks, but if it's possible to use UKTS style trailer files to paint both sides do point me in the right direction.

Or, don't show any jobs by default, show them only for the city you are actually clicking on (on map). Yes, store ALL the 1000+ available jobs in memory, but don't show them all, just if/when I click on a certain city (which will be from my current area). I don't even need to see all the available jobs, I always click on the nearby cities and pick the most favorable one, not some well-paid 3000+ km distant job. By the time I get there, it would probably expire long ago anyway..

This last post of BULIGO in my opinion is a winner.

Too many times I've found a job that payed very good money all the way from Helsinki to maybe somewhere in Italy, and I was way over in southern Poland somewhere and the job had like 1 hr 20 min left.


Please SCS, please?

Just tried the 1.7 update. The save I used would crash every time and now it loads the jobs menus just fine.

Edit: Well after several more starts. I had another jobs crash. I guess I was just getting lucky before and had some of those rare occasions where the game would load correctly.

So in a way my hunch of a overflow situation was after a fashion correct.
Time to exit the game, let it update and floor that g*ddamn pedal.

Guess I'll have to wait till 1.7 hits the web for the non Steam version. Believe me I can wait.

From ETS2's website:
"Version 1.7.0 is already up on Steam.
The patch for non-Steam users is on the way, thank you for your patience!
Consider using your Product Key to activate the game on Steam."

If you're kind of desperate.

Steam paid some good money to let SCS do that :p

Sad to hear that it still hasn't been solved.

yea i tweeted them to put in a search box so when u type the name of a city it should pop up in the jobs list. They havent tweeted me back about that idea i sent them.
