Produce Loads on Flatbed (Onions, Melons, etc...)

[Dainel96]

Does anyone know about any cargo mod tutorials? It would be awesome to make Produce loads to haul on a Flatbed/Step Deck like Onions and Melons. The Onions are on Pallets and the tarp only goes on top of the load. The sides stay open for the Onions to Vent unless it's raining, if it rains the driver also has to drop the Tarp on the sides.

there's a tarp trailer that SCS has made ownable for us. Would that work? I have feeling this isn't what you are talking about. I have vision of what you are talking about. How many pounds of produce?

Do you mean the Sliding Tarp trailer by SCS? I’ve used that one but honestly it doesn’t let you keep the tarp on the sides open like you would if hauling Onions. That trailer by SCS is like using a dry van lol. These produce loads are almost about 47,000 lbs. Because Onions them selves are 50 lbs each bag x 900 bags is 45,000 lbs plus 1,500 lbs for the pallets them selves is around 46,500 lbs

Yes that's the trailer I was referring to from SCS. Doesn't some produce can be stored in refrigerated/temperature control trailer. Like the reefer.....and other produce can be hauled in a dry van trailer or even the new trailer SCS recently made ... sorry the one with the moving floor trailer. I can vision the trailer I am talking about, but the name escapes me. Sliding floor trailer .

I haven’t seen the Sliding Floor Trailer yet. I’ll check it out later today, have you ever seen loads tarped on a regular Flatbed in this game?

[meistroracer88]

No..I have not. Most of it is machinery for the flatbed or lumber, bricks.....Oh look in the trailer browser or listing and it should list what each trailer will haul.

The name of that trailer is the Chip Van trailer.

I have looked in the vehicle browser no produce for the flatbed

Hopefully SCS comes up with some Produce shipments for Flatbed and Step Deck whenever they make it.

Funny thing is, box trailers are famous on ETS2, but apparently they are too on ATS (and they shouldnt). We should have less box trailers (its getting ridiculous at this point) and more flatbeds/lowdecks with exotic cargos.

SCS has been increasing the amount of box trailers in ATS version after version to the point that right now ATS looks more like ETS and the game is plagues with box trailers everywhere. They dont seem to have any plans to start introducing more lowdecks or flatbeds.
