take jobs directly from Freight Market

[bolero3232]

I like the option to see jobs From Current Location when you've parked your job. However, I don't like that you can't see your Rest status from there. Once you leave that screen you can't go back to it. Also, I wish you could accept jobs directly from the Freight Market, with your Rest level displayed there as well.

I despise the 'rotating question mark' thing with a passion. I always have, since ETS, and also with ATS. It's time for it to go. Please.

Just change your tactics a little:
After you park the trailer, first check your driving / resting time BEFORE driving on the rotating question mark.

In addition, if you jump out of a job search without taking a job, you can easily resume the job search from that company by pressing <Enter> as you are already holding the question mark.

Since the time to next rest is barely relevant it would seem a little unnecessary to add it to the jobs screens, but no harm in doing so I guess. Personally I would like to be able to see the rest status from the in-game desktop rather than having to drop back to the cab and F6. Perhaps the 'change your tactics' answer is to remember to check your rest status immediately before pressing T or E to finish the delivery?

@brian, I think you've slightly misunderstood the scenario since I believe the OP is referring to displaying the jobs available from the company you've just delivered to via the button bottom left of the end of job screen (something like 'Current company job offers' in the English localisation)

There are several mods out there that replace the various icons. I use chuvachok which replaces the icons with with people apart from parking which is a cone outline.

Pitts, yes, I think you understand me correctly, for the most part. My intention is not to rest from the Freight Market screen directly, though. But it could work I guess.

Brian misunderstands a bit. When you enter the Current Company screen, it has nothing to do with entering the question mark screen; that is the part I'd like to get rid of altogether. I hate that f....ing thing.

I'd like to see everything done from the Freight Market screen, including calculating rest stops along the way.

Finish job and go to hotel or even truck service- you can sleep in both. Then select map view and click on your blue icon. If you are in a city it will present all jobs in the radius of your starting point, if you are outside of jobs just drive nearer to a built up area and do the above.

[bolero3232]

Bobby, you're not getting the point. I know how to do all of that.

[bolero3232]

mojo, thanks for that. I've never used it; I just came here to chat.

I will start using that forum.

This does annoy me as I like to check other jobs before maybe taking one in the current depot but driving back to the entrance to activate the listing is very annoying.

I've kinda got into the habit of checking my rest status before I complete the job so I don't have to leave that screen when I first bring it up.

[bolero3232]

Exactly, J4mes.

As for checking your status before turning in the job...... yeah, I keep telling myself to do that.
Of course I never do. lol

Get rid of the 'question mark', make it all one Freight screen, done. Easy.

look at your hours before looking at and accepting a job....... guess what, it's what happens in rl....... funny how ppl want "realistic" but don't want realism .. rolls eyes

g_show_game_elements 0 in the console will sort that out for you.

[bolero3232]

Initially, I really didn't think your comments were worthy of a response, but something about it has been gnawing at me.....

Yeah, I see floating, rotating green question marks at all of the loading docks I've been to. Talk about complaining about 'rl'. **rolls eyes**

[Karlia]

sounds like you gnawed your eyes out
as I said g_show_game_elements 0 in the console will sort that out for you.

Thats right there are no rotating question marks at loading docks or anywhere else in rl (thank you for pointing that out, I didn't know.. 🙄🙄🙄
The roll eyes was for you complaining about those rotating green things but wanting a hours baby sitting feature added. If you are a trucker as you are implying then you will know looking after your hours is on you, not on a logistics broker and certainly not on their computer interface.
Have a good day and drive safe..

[bolero3232]

I was right with my first impression of you.
