Hey SnowRunners!

We just updated the PTS to version 15.2! Due to technical inconvenience with saves backups, it's only available on EGS for now.

Your feedback helps us to improve the game, and it's greatly appreciated!

Here are the changes:

Additions

• Added addon Ramped Addon Towing Platform
• Added addon Articulated Towing Platform
• Added in-game music for the Don region
• Added loading screens for both maps (Industrial Zone, Antonovsky Reservation)

Bug Fixes

• Improved sounds playback from nearby trucks

Trucks

• Added customization options for Tatra Force T815-7 and Tatra Phoenix
• Added tow ramp control for Tatra Force T815-7
• Fixed a bug where the hook of a heavy-duty bumper on ANK38 was floating in the air
• Fixed a bug where cab reverse lights did not work for Derry 4520
• Tweaked wheel offsets for Khan Sentinel
• Fixed a bug when the fuel consumption indicator of a stalled engine showed 0.1 gals/min instead of 0.0 gal/min
• Raised position of boom crane Avto-23 to avoid collisions with snorkel

Mods

• Fixed a bug when greeting popups were created incorrectly
• Added ability to set up separate addons as “able to pack truck”

so is the first map called Factory grounds or Industrial zone its as clear as Mud

@ukgamer808 It's a mistake in forum post translations, "Industrial Zone" is direct translation proposed by google translator from the version in russian PTS posts and russian game version, "Factory Grounds" is proper version proposed by person behind english translation. Same with the second map.

@Nextej thanks for clearing it up as they did this with Phases and now they are called season cheers

@ukgamer808 for that case, I think the only reason for change, was because Season 1 was split basically between 3 updates (Rift, Lake Kovd and Imandra), so it was no longer convenient to call it a phase.

But haven't you fixed this problem ???
It is impossible to complete the mission

Resolved.....
Ok, with the old rescue, irrecoverable, I had to start all over again, to solve the problem ...

Nice with the two new addons.

The articulated towing arm is still very "janky" and unable to pack trucks.
The physic of the arm is very weak, and please don't forget to automatically disengage the parking brake of the towed truck if a packing function is added.

I'm a bit surprised with the design choice for the towing platform, I would have liked a ramped rollback just like some modders did, for its simplicity.
Nonetheless, the platform works great and is pleasant to use.
Nevermind, just found the rollback, but can only be used with the Voron AE-4380

EDIT:
This is my suggestion for the towing arm:

• Drive close to the truck that need to be towed
• Deploy the arm
• Position it close to any axle of the towed truck
• Add in the function menu the option to pack the truck
• Pack the truck with any axle closest to the towing arm
  Doing so would
  - Auto disengage the parking brake
  - Reduce the packed truck weight by 50% or even more
• Then manually raise the anchor as well as the prism
• Drive away

The weight of any truck on the towing arm raises the front of the Tatra force, effectively making it almost un-steerable.
Hence why reducing the weight of the packed truck.

This one is mine!

Yes sir!

Bug Fixes

Ahhhhh... The beautiful sound of two trucks side by side and listening to the engine purr of the truck sitting next to you.... heavenly bliss! Nice job, devs! Thanks for getting this fixed!

@Roby1164 As always, there are plenty of bugs, but they, as always, will most likely be eliminated only in the official server. I myself cannot go through the mission on the plot, where it is necessary to restore the supports of power lines - there are no metal beams on the map
