Remove Sleep Fines

Description
This mod will remove the fine for all 'avoid sleeping' offenses completely from the game.

Changes made to the Police_data.sii file include the following
  • fine_amounts: 0 # avoid sleeping
  • offence_check_delay: 999 # avoid sleeping
  • offence_probabilty: 0 # avoid sleeping
The above includes identical changes for all 'police' checks as well where applicable for the associated strings.

You can still fall asleep, and every other fine is still present in the game.
This mod aims to remove only the fine for avoiding sleep.

If you wish to use any of the changes in this mod for your own creations, feel free to do so.
I ask you do not reupload the mod with no changes made, at least tweak some numbers first.



Tested on 8th September using American Truck Simulator version 1.45

Or any rest ares in the game that have a bed icon.

There was an option in most 18 Wheels of Steel Games that allowed you to sleep anywhere! But now you can only sleep at your Garage, Truckstop and Service Stations.

I see trucks parked on road shoulders especially turnpikes. What's the sense of having a cabin if you can't pull over and rest.

Recently had the chance to continue testing with the mod on the current version (ATS v1.45) - I've pushed a small update to the mod that merged the newer police.sii file with my mod, allowing previously (possibly) missing updates to police.sii to now work with this mod

I'll have a look into this and find out what changed.
With my current schedule, this fix could take up to a month to solve, please have patience

No sleep fines needs to be updated, does not work in version 1.43

At least in game, I find more fun trying to take risky trips and pushing for that extra hour at the risk of passing out.
The punishment with this mod being writing off our truck or failing delivery if you flip. Mostly just preference in my case.

IRL you get caught not getting any rest and you could go to jail. Usually they'll put you out of service for 10 hours and give you a large fine to pay. It falls under falsifying your log book. With electronic logs it harder to falsify them and you'll still get caught and fined.

Thank you, i personally don't understand the point of being fined for not sleeping
