air pressure too low?

[ColaBB]

I hadn't played in a while but never had it before. I looked it up and it said something about braking too much. I don't have air brake simulation enabled so I'm not sure what's causing this and how this would affect me since I literally never had this warning.

Using the 'Air Brake Simulation' option would mean when you brake, you lose some air pressure, whilst braking too much would result in the truck stopping and you would have to rev the truck in stationary to build up the pressure again.

You should only use the option should you play ETS2 with a steering wheel and pedals + shifter.

Yea I figured as much. So why do I get the air warning when the option isn't even enabled in the first place?

Mind you that I got the warning in the daf xf, after that I switched to my volvo fh classic and haven't seen it, so I guess maybe a glitch but just wondering.

Disagree, I play with mouse and have no issues with it. People on automatic could have problem, since my solution is usually to put full neutral and then shift to 1-3 gear to get quickly moving (unless I have to brake in the next 10 seconds, it is enough to make the truck moving).

This critical simulation option should be enabled. I always check the pressure before moving because I've smashed my truck so many times from insufficient braking. Braking intensity is also adjustable to suit your preferences. The Volvo Heavy Equipment DLC is recommended and will test both you and your truck well.

If it's keeps your truck from moving, than disable it. Otherwise it's just a warning. The new MAN dash layout has a more pronounced warning sign. previously it was just a red indicator symbol on the dashboard, by the parking brake warning.
