Can SCS software add these things in ets2 and ats PLS this will make your games be more realistic
The game would be better if scs adds the thing to be able to get out of the truck and walk with 3d-person camera and 1st-person camera and when we sleep we can sleep in any place we want, we just turn off the truck and get out of the driver's seat and walk to the cabin and sleep and add food to the game, we just order food delivery and we eat and finally in MULTIPLAYER we can get in other players trucks and get in the passenger seat and help the player with alot of things and add realistic truck issues like high temp, low level oil, and low brake oil. And if we are the admin in a convoy we can pay or give a gift or send money to a player

The more realistic something is the more you are limiting the audience of the game. However, you forgot the paperwork. You know, filling out the contracts, the hireing contracts, DOT inspection paperwork, taxes (both income and company) etc.
Don't know if that is fun to you. But I can promise you that it won't for about 99% of the playerbase. It actually might be better if you do commercial truck as your full time job.

ATS/scs will never do this. its more of an arcade game than a simulator shouldnt even have the word simulator in its title.
Have you done a search on which titles have "Simulator" in their title? There is e.g. Goat Simulator and Deeer Simulator. Are they really Simulators?
And if you want a list:

Scs had clearly talk
Our game world is generally not designed for exploration on foot
so i think this would not happen for your other wishes is think is this the better place.

Steam doesn't develop the game, they sell it
If you want to get the developer's attention you need to go to the SCS forums.

Speaking of simulation, how many in this game use the steering wheel rather than the keyboard? What is the popularity of economy mods? How many have moved the track stability sliders to the left?

I'll answer right away - this is a minority. People use this game as an arcade game. Yes, it has the potential to not be an arcade game, but most people just don't need it.

I second what you wrote, but if you look at it objectively, nothing in the "simulation" section is likely to be released. Just new maps and graphics.

And I'm OK with it, until we have a choice. So.... More realism can't do any damage if they implement it in form of "sliders" or "on/off" alternatives. On that way you pleased everyone, us hardcocorers, and arcade players.

This game simulated a delivery from point a to point b, that is the defintion from simulation for this game in my opinion. This is not a lifesimulation, who i had to shower, eat and trink or something else like that and it's not a 1:1 simulation of a truckerwork, it's only lean back and enjoy the ride.

If you want eating and sleeping and walking around your truck, My Summer Car.

If you want all of those plus multiplayer and some limited truck maintenance, The Long Drive.

ATS is not a life simulator, it is focused on driving.

At that point you are making a separate game that is fundamentally different from the current game.

I'm trying to get the developer attention, I want ats to be like Alaskan truck sim but not the map, if it's possible. And because if I play Alaskan truck sim it will crash bc I have a amd ryzen 3 3250u
