Manage drivers skills the same way you managed yours, smartly.

[red]Truck wear and tear – Damage[normal]

Reworked damage parameters.
Rebalanced wear and tear. Tires must run over 30.000km before losing grip. (original tire lifespan were less than 10.000km).

[red]CoInsurance[normal]

CoInsurance system implemented. This system works by evaluating your driving behavior and applying a discount factor in “Repair Costs” when repairing in the Shops.
Getting fined, damaging the cargo, driving recklessly will lead to negative “points”, reducing the discount.
Carefull driving will be rewarded by increasing the discount.
Be aware that Insurance Contracts are defined at the purchase. So if you purchased you truck with the previous version of this mod, the contract rules for this truck remains intact. To use the new values, you need to buy a new truck.

Wrong way: 200 EUR (after 20 seconds, 33% of probabilities to get fined)
Speeding (Camera/Radar): 30 EUR / 90% of probability to get fined (Why just 30? Because if you drive by law, you will never have a 30km+ speeding fine. If you want to drive like a maniac, well, realistic mods is not your thing)
No lights at night: 20 EUR.
Running red lights: 90 EUR. (yellow light is now 4 seconds long)

Police car patrols fine are the same. Some probabilities adjusted. No increase factor.

[red]Delivery windows[normal]

  1. Hi and thank you. Just one question do I have to start a new profile for this to work?

    1. iTzSplashed

      I’m sure that you don’t need a new profile 🙂

      1. iTzSplashed

        No you don’t have to i just found this in the mod desc. ^^:

        If you are starting a new profile, taking quick jobs with low skills, some fines may have a important impact in your income.

        IF you are starting a new profile.. means you can use it on your current one aswell ofc! Enjoy!

  2. Mate, the mod is interesting, I can’t say otherwise, but the diesel prices are anything but realistic. Do some more research upon it. There are websites with the official diesel price for each country in Europe that is updated weekly. Put that in it and correct your mod.

    1. Who the hell has time to update mods weekly just for the price of diesel? atleast in finland this mod has 1.313€ and thats close enough

  3. For me the mod does not work properly. I had access to the loan after 10 orders. And the specified loan rates are not there …….

    Have the game version 1.32 and no other mods running.
