Mods?

[LInk in bio]

Would love to see mods in this, like maps, car skins etc. Is there anyone who is trying to make this possible and will there be any workshop editions?

Love the game so far but already feel like the map will run dry after a while and i know from the ets community that map modders are great to have for a super game.

Hi, thanks for your feedback. Mods aren't currently in our plans but we will consider it again in future.

Do thatb bc i do really think that would give the game even longer content, could even be just local mods that i can see like skins so u can sim better!

Mods are not an essential priority, they are used to compensate for the lack of content. However, the T&LS developers are open to all suggestions and ideas. Including mods would penalize console gamers, and that's not the goal here when we know that the heart of the game is "Playing together".
As for DLC, it's optional, so think of it as support for the developers.

"Including mods would penalize console gamers" not necessarily they could implement same what Giants Software did with farming sim games, you have in game mods store that are compatible with console players and pc players,and you still can use other mods that are only made for pc players.
and i am 99% sure they did port for console players because lack of pc players wich i understand people compare this game to ets2 with lack of everything they wont even bother with this game.
having big modding community behind you helps alot, iwe seen in nummerous games games are alive only because modders are keeping them alive

Modding is something that we will look into in the future. We just do not have the capacity to support it right now.

Rather than spending months on modding (which you never know if people will even use, very few games have active modding) we want to prioritize our new coming content (DLC and Free Updates).

A very large part of our playerbase is console, so we would have to make a solution that works on console, which requires even more time. Modding would likely only consist of customization, not making vehicles and maps. That doesnt add too much to the average player.

Again we will consider it, however it is not a priority :)

Cheers!
Michael

Hello, now almost a year later there is still no movement as far as modding is concerned. Will it stay that way or are there still suggestions to do this?

[malorob]

they talk about future content and yet nothing is coming out.
no wonder people want mods.

at least with mods the game will continue to grow.

We sure need more added to this game, continually driving this same map get a bit boring. Are there any plans on bigger maps and longer drives especially for the big trucks?? But so far I'm loving the game, keep bringing the updates..

Map extension is in development but will take some time. It will be a free update.
