More Jobs per City

[elWexler]

Hi, is there any good MOD you know that add more jobs per city? from a city to have more delivery options to more cities, companies, distances, cargo type, etc. Thanks.

But that shouldn't apply to cargo jobs (ie, player-owned trailers).

As for me, I'd be _very_ happy with some sort of integrated "Virtual Speditor" mod. Or even a mod which just regenerates jobs without time passing (effectively giving you "more jobs" just without the option of seeing them all at once).

I'm so bleeping sick of waiting for the game to generate -any- Munich-to-Vienna job right now that I've temporarily stopped playing and moved onto other games.

I do feel ya! man. Been there...

@micha the cargo jobs are generated from a list of ten seed values (which are actually future times in the game's minute based time continuum) and since you don't see the cargo that is to be loaded then all you need is an empty bay to pull up to. As to your anguish over the jobs you are after not showing up, mentally I just shrug and go do something tangential, whilst keeping an eye open for the job(s) I'm after. I completed the French Eco stuff that way, and Industry Standard in the Batlcs - some times those jobs showed up and weren't in reach, so rinse and repeat, other times they cropped up when I actually wanted something else (I completed Industry Standard all the way from Corsica because the final piece of the puzzle popped up the first day I landed on the island to explore)

@metpei Freight Market jobs are always there on the yard and if you go away and come back again during the lifetime of those jobs they will be in the same slots. WoT jobs materialise/dematerialise before your eyes.

def/cargo/cargo_name.sii

cargo_data: cargo.aromatics_m
{
	name: "@@cn_aromatics@@"
	fragility: 0.5
	adr_class: 3
	group[]: refrigerated
	volume: 1
	mass: 129.274
	unit_reward_per_km: 0.23205
	unit_load_time: 30
	body_types[]: _lowbeelcale
	prob_coef: 5.0
}

That last line in bold isn't a default entry in cargo data, but it does exist. Max at SCS Forums posted this tip about cargo spawning. The default value is "1.0" which means the probability of a job for that cargo appearing. I added that prob_coef attribute which increases that probability by 5. I see a lot more jobs more frequently for my Maxicube trailers since adding that line in the trailer mod.
Good luck.

Is it just the default trailers and cargo you want to see more of?
I'm off to work soon but I can write a mod for the default cargoes tomorrow and post it on Workshop.
No harm in tryin', right?

You propably know too is there any possibilities to remove SCS cargo or at least box trailers minimum?!

In the same files I mention above, you will see the attribute:
body_types[]
I assume you can comment out (ie. # or // at the beginning on any line) the body_types you don't want to see?

You'll prolly have to sleep a couple of cycles to see any changes.
Let me know how it goes. It might be my imagination that it's actually generating more cargo jobs :)

WOW Dude! I'm On it rn!

It may not be working as intended. It should be noted here that 'probability' is the key. There's no guarantee of any particular trailer/cargo appearing at any given moment.
I know, for example, that in ATS the Oversize Cargo DLC "Pilot Boat" cargo is extremely rare so there IS coding that governs this situation.

Anyway, mod deleted.
