Why are European Trucks so hard to drive compared to American trucks?

I recently started playing ETS2 after taking a break from ATS, and noticed something, when hauling a cargo and turning (with Keyboard) if you take a hard turn, and then stop steering the truck will continue to steer and when trying to counter this (with pressing left when truck goes right out of control) the truck will swerve in that direction, and either go off road into a ditch or bump into a tree causing massive damage

this never happened with me on ATS, and its driving me insane

Strange automatic transmission behavior.

My friend has an issue with AT in ETS2. It won't shift or downshift at normal RPM or sometimes it won't shift at all. For something like entire last month he tried anything, every mod, every option, even reinstalling the whole game was useless. What is even more strange, there isn't any mention on whole internet about this problem. I'm playing ETS2 right now and everything seems perfectly fine. So what he didn't (or did?) do to break the game?

What's everyone's favourite truck and why? (ETS and ATS)

In ETS I love the Volvos for their looks and engines. Been driving around the FH2022 mod a lot.

I haven't played ATS long, only about a week or so but I quite like the Western Star 57X so would be interested to know what others like.

Accelerator deadzone

Hello,

So I bought new steering wheel + pedals (Thrustmaster Leather Edition) and I have noticed that acceleration is a bit sensitive. I have tried to adjust the deadzone of it but I can't seem to find a perfect spot. What is your current deadzone for the acceleration? Or is there a perfect point?

Thank you in advance!

Live driver positional data export

Hi

As a server admin and streamer, it would be cool to be able to display a live world map showing server members current position WITHOUT needing a game client, for the purposes of a stream overlay. Is there a mod or tool that can do this?

Big Wheels Keep on Turning

I don't know what i'm doing wrong here, and i'd appreciate it if anyone has any ideas.

I've completed 2 deliveries of 'Big Tires' from Ardmore. neither triggered any achievement progress. I understand the achievement text says 'Tyres' instead, but i thought that was just a geographical version thing, and not necessary for the achievement ('tyres' aren't available for me). Do they have to be 'perfect' delievries?

Discovered Prague today.... Prague, Oklahoma!

I found it on accident after missing a turn onto I-40 wb. I noticed a lack of barriers but no road and proceeded north and discovered the rendered town of Prague, OK. While it only encompasses about a city block worth of driving, there is tons of detail.. Did they plan on making Prague a destination city but ran out of time? There is a TidBit prefab in this town. I know in Wyoming visiting the hidden town of Bill will get you an achievement, but I didn't notice any popup when I entered Prague.
