This is once again peak UI design. You have to select 'disabled' to active the function... Thanks for clearing it up! Appreciate the quick and informative video.
It is pretty poor labelling that the lane assist options in Gameplay refer to always-on lane departure avoidance features, and the lane assist option in Controls refers to an entirely separate toggle-able lane keeping assist.
Thanks for sharing amazing stuff. If you've been sitting for too long, you can briefly stretch on the gaming chair or interact with other players on the chat system while the lane assist takes control.
Very instructive video! I did not even know that this was a new feature introduced with v1.50!! I discovered it by chance, and started gathering infos on the internet, when I stumbled into this very video of yours! Again, thank you!! Happy trucking and, although on the wrong side of the road, drive safe! (Kidding, eh!? Just kidding! I am italian, unfortunately (!!), and love to drive on the left side in ETS2 when I travel to England - which I do whenever possible! It reminds me of when I was a kid and the bus did so when driving me to school to Summertown in Oxford! Such lovely memories!)
this is what i've been waiting for years! in ets2 the autopilot, i mean literally now i can eat in peace while my truck drives alone, and more in truckersmp which is what i play the most because i like the multiplayer.
Good news! As of the 1.50 update, Lane Assist has been added to ATS :D. That means I can now let my truck cruise at 80mph unattended! What could go wrong
Hi I just tried this and it seems to work, but it doesn't turn sharp enough. The turning of the steering wheel is much too slow, am I doing something wrong?
@@TiJayFLY That's a very strange way to order the list, newest to oldest except the very newest which is last. Thanks for that, I'd have been stuck waiting for it to leave experimental without that clue :)
I thought it only had a function to return it to prevent it from simply departure, but does it also keep it lane centered actively without having to install any other mods??
I can define 2 shortcuts for both the lane assist and the lane assist mode, but the mode does not seem to work?! Only when setting the mode in option i see some effect.
Guys I found out why. It only Works when you have selectet "gamepad, Joystick" in the steering settings and it does not work when you have selected "Steering wheel"
That makes sense as keyboard input only sends commands when pressed, whereas the mouse is constantly reporting position (and overriding it). I wonder if there’s a way SCS can ignore the mouse while it’s activated.
@@dxutube check on ETS-specific forums etc how to make it work with your type of controller. Gamepad and mouse need additional config IIRC but that’s beyond the scope of this channel.
isn't the fun of driving a sim the driving ? what's next full autopilot ? just put your destination in and go cut the lawn and come back and watch it auto park too..?
If you need additional help, please seek it in a suitable place - for example, ETS2 forums or Discord servers.

Not quite. You still have to monitor speed and sharp turns, and once you go under 55kmh at toll booths or cities you have to take over manually.
@@jonaszswietomierz8017 al final mala mia, yo pense que era autopilot tipo tesla. pero bueno.. al menos se manejar a lo bravo con carga pesada xd
@@EzSergioMC Nos conocemos, ¿xd?
Very good thank you - recommended from Discord
Thanks mate. This video helped me a lot
thank you it worked
Requires force feedback to be set fairly high or you do not feel anything.
woahh thank you!
Awesome! I wonder if this will come to ATS?

Hi I just tried this and it seems to work, but it doesn't turn sharp enough. The turning of the steering wheel is much too slow, am I doing something wrong?
I think it probably depends on how tight the curve is and how fast you’re going
@@TiJayFLY I tried it at different speeds on different corners, it still was steering at the same speed. Maybe it's because I'm on mouse steering.
@@b3as_t oh yeah mouse just doesn’t work afaik
@@TiJayFLY AHH ok
Some reason it only works when I use my steering wheel but not on kbm, so I can’t afk on long car rides with this 😭
@@The_Original_Rtxyz I used KBM for this video
How do you find the 1.50 beta ? All I can see in the betas tab in my Steam library is old versions up to 1.49 ?
It's at the bottom of the Beta list - 1.50 Experimental
@@TiJayFLY That's a very strange way to order the list, newest to oldest except the very newest which is last. Thanks for that, I'd have been stuck waiting for it to leave experimental without that clue :)
Only works with a mechanical force feedback Steering wheel.
Also works with gamepad and keyboard. All wheels these days are FFB anyway
@@TiJayFLY Nope my PXN V900 steering Wheel does not work with this feature. And it's from 2023
@@McGarrettDKI have PXN V9 and it doesn't work either
I thought it only had a function to return it to prevent it from simply departure, but does it also keep it lane centered actively without having to install any other mods??
Yes it has lane centering without mods
i have no sound alert
so for some reason the auto pilot won't work while using wheel T300 RS GT but work on keyboard only
hope this comes to tmp cause i am bad at driving in 1 lane for too long
You should be able to use it in TMP once 1.50 is live, as it's part of the regular ETS gameplay options.
Some reason lane keep assist won’t work when I’m on kbm, is there something I’m doing wrong
@@The_Original_Rtxyz your mouse will constantly be overriding the steering position. Set it to keyboard steer
@@TiJayFLY I use keyboard for steering
@@The_Original_Rtxyz weird. I used keyboard for this video
@@TiJayFLYyeah idk

@@mih1959 check the other comment threads here. There’s extra config for certain controller types.
@@TiJayFLY No it's not a gamepad issue, even when i use they keyboard keys, the switch of mode does not seem to have any effect.
@@mih1959 no idea, ask on some ETS forums 👍
how can I see which assistant is currently on in the interior interface?
@@alexybogomolov that’s the fun part, you don’t 😄
Lol I was wondering this too
Doesnt seem to work for me, i only have the warning when i press the button, even though i keep it on disabled
Yeah... same
yep
same…

@@lolfresh6129 Omg thank you so much
Doesn't seem to work on my wheel. Thrustmaster TMX Pro
There’s a comment further down from someone with a name starting “lovre”, the thread might be useful for you
It's working properly with keyboard steering but not with mouse steering
That makes sense as keyboard input only sends commands when pressed, whereas the mouse is constantly reporting position (and overriding it). I wonder if there’s a way SCS can ignore the mouse while it’s activated.
@@TiJayFLY It's working, but it's barely staying in the lane. The auto steer is weak and it's swerving in the lanes with mouse steering.
It doesn’t work on kbm for me only my wheel
If anyone wants the autopilot u need to use keyboard steering or a steering wheel
Did they not provide a method to get it working with pad yet? Damn
Actually I still can't get it to do anything.

Eh I’m a nerd, I find it interesting watching a computer drive a car 😄
@@TiJayFLY Our cars have this lane assist and blind spot detection etc and it's a pain the backside. I disabled all that junk when we bought them. LOL
