New content, AI revisits, Improved driving feel - Update v1.31

Hi everyone!

We just published a new update for Truck Driver: v1.31! This update focuses on adding more content in the form of the 'Parking Missions' side activities

  • NEW: Added ‘Parking Missions’ for all clients. In these new side missions, the client will ask the player to rearrange and move 1 to 4 trailers within the client’s locale. This new type of missions can be repeated every 20 minutes for every client
  • NEW: Revisited and changed speed limits on all roads in the game to be more logical and realistic
  • NEW: Revised all engines in all trucks and adjusted steering
  • NEW: Improved visuals for AI vehicle lane switching
  • NEW: Improved suspension feel in in-cabin camera modes
  • NEW: Made visual upgrades to windscreens and sunscreens
  • NEW: Revisited the way required parking position of trailers is displayed for a clearer indication
  • NEW: Added a ‘completed missions’ list for all clients
  • NEW: Added the ‘garage’ & ‘truck damage and repair’ mechanics to the game’s tutorial
  • NEW: Added profile pictures to conversations with clients
  • NEW: Added Social media buttons to the main menu that link to the corresponding pages

  • FIXED: Removed a bug where the speed limit would drop to 30 km/h on junctions
  • FIXED: Resolved an issue where players would be fined for running red light while light is still orange
  • FIXED: Fixed an issue where AI Traffic would drive with constant braking lights lit
  • FIXED: Tweaked the turning radius for 6x4 & 8x4 trucks
  • FIXED: Removed floating pieces of road in several areas
  • FIXED: Resolved an issue where players’ satnav would display wrong starting location when entering and leaving a garage during a mission
  • FIXED: Removed incorrect signs near T-junctions
  • FIXED: Removed wrongly placed 75 km/h signs in specific areas
  • FIXED: Resolved an issue where certain languages in the menu weren’t displayed correctly
  • FIXED: Overhauled all city/town signs on highways
  • FIXED: Resolved an issue where AI traffic drove relatively close to each other and formed trains

So, there's quite a lot in here that will alter the main experience as well. Driving the truck should feel different, the AI behaves differently as well and all speed limits have been revisited. Feedback is very important to us, especially in updates like this! So please let me know what your experience is with v1.31 through the Steam Community Hub, or join our Discord server at https://discord.gg/soedesco

Have fun!
