Trucker Career


Recommended Posts

Are there any plans on further improving the trucking system in the future?

 

I feel like some obvious things are holding it back.

- Lack of real business transports, when business owners keep overriding the system and driving out the goods for 1 dollar per crate.

- Due to the real business transports being redundant, it overloads the ship transports way too fast. 4-5 active truckers will overload eggs/fruit/meat/clothes/bricks/logs in just a matter of hours. This is probably not sustainable in the future if we keep growing the playerbase. Would it be smart to either up the total capacity or make the SA food processing factory process more than 10 products per hour?

- Some transport routes are insanely profitable, whereas for example all the milk/fuel ones are very bad in comparison due to long loading times, long routes and less money.

I've brought these issues up in the Discord. I believe the consumption is set wrong and also the buy orders on player owned businesses are bugged. 

If you have to invest 164 hours and approximately $900k for a truck to have access to the best routes, only to find they are over saturated by other players and now unprofitable, it makes the whole job useless. There is no incentive to do the job if there is no profit incentive and the content becomes dead, so why have it at all?

The system needs to be rebalanced by the team otherwise it may as well be removed.

Hello!

 

The trucking hours are always shown as 12, but in reality it requires 12+1, same goes for all the next ranks aswell, following rank will be 24+1, then 32+1 and so forth.

I managed to get promoted to the rank of courier, but under /jobhelp it still shows me 12 hours, as if I had only worked 12 hours, but in fact I have 30 of them, of which I have worked 25-26 because I'm always transporting something.

Can someone explain what's going on?
Up to 12 hours and reaching the rank of courier, this hour under /helpjob increased.

[22:22:54] [ ! ]{FFFFFF} You have logged 12 hours on this job.

Time played:[30 hours]



Since I am a driver in real life, I was also a manager in one of two companies on another role play server, when I picked up on the subject and obtained finances for a car, I entered these industries and managed to get a good grasp of everything. But I saw one strange line.
And a little suggestion. There should be a ban on searchers entering a lower price for a product than the price in the wholesaler. There are plenty of offers for $1, $20, $200 for drinks, and the manufacturer's price is $252...

Hey!

 

/Jobhelp only tracks hours for every rank, not total hours as a trucker.  When trucking guide shows you 12 hours until next rank, it's always calculated as 12+1, next rank will be 24+1, then 32+1 etc etc.

 

Hope this helps.

Okay, thanks for the clarification.
Now I waited until the full hour and noticed that it had increased to 13 hours 🙂👍
I just thought that it doesn't reset after a new rank and that 12 hours are added to the 12 hours and the next rank comes 😁
