    Don't skip tip #6!! A lot of people don't know about it! If you found these tips helpful don't forget to Like and Subscribe for more!
    **Note on tip #8 - I worded this poorly, choosing one side of the tree does not block you from being able to progress down the other, it just keeps it locked until you put points into it.

    To add to tip 6, if you ever forget to sell or buy something, don't worry, keep the mag locked into the store and get out of your seat and go to the back of the truck with the airlock door closed as you see at 5:25 with the store icon. I never knew this until I seen his video. I was doing it the long and hard way by unlocking and then backing up to lock in again. I used so much power.

    If cash is low, don’t be afraid to go down to negative $2,500 balance stocking up before a mission, it’s free credit and can save you from failing and paying more in penalties.
    Also if you skip a weigh station and jump system it’s an instant $2,000 fine

  • @vincentkeith5259
    @vincentkeith5259 5 днів тому +1

    Notes:
    The skills to increase your load help - If you've just claimed a bunch of salvage and then jump into a zone with weight checks - you will be forced to surrender enough items to get under weight - that can be expensive.
    External Camera - works great - but remember to switch back regularly to check your status. You can lose air or freeze to death if you're not paying attention.
    Truck Upgrades - The mag-lock Dampener reduces collision damage to trailers. The Anti-Capacitive Shielding will reduce the number of Pop'd Surge suppressors (and they're expensive)

    When it comes to driving, don't baby foot it, hit the gas, turn early and stop turning a little early. If you want it to go where you point, over turn just a little and hit the gas, it pulls you back on target where you're trying to go much easier than turning direct to it and then getting nosed away when you try to go. Acceleration while turning gets you on target and away from danger much faster than coast turning or trying to slow down and turn slow.
    Turn early, the truck does a lot of drifting.
    Turn off the driving assistant when possible, it saves fuel, and you can cruise without using cruise, because the thrusters won't work against you and slow you back down, & saving power too 😜.
    If you leave it on you can accelerate and cost. You can usually coast about 4-5* longer than you accelerate for and this up and down speed instead of full blast all the time gets more distance for fuel. Coasting without assistance on is ideal but he assists slow down slowly and the forward acceleration is pretty quick.
    Keep the lights off, even the outside ones. Don't really need them 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Wonderful tips😊
    I really enjoy this game.
    What i like to do when docked at Stations i love to turn all engines off and then.
    I also turn off all relays and enter the airlock when i exit the game.
    I know that it is not a tip. But I just love immersion.
    So when i load in my game i am always inside the airlock.
    So i basicly just start up the entire truck. Engines Will be cold though.
    But yeah like i said i love immersion. And enjoy all the sounds the truck makes.
    Really cool game 😊

    You missed the fact that you can completely turn your gravity off in the cab at the breaker after you have secured everything and stop draining those batteries. The gravity generator is an extremely high drain on a battery and if you can tolerate it being off there is no real negative other than the small amount of damage to items in the airlock.

      Opening boxes stored in your shelves fixes them in place. So no need to dump boxes in the airlock.

  • @CreedComander
    @CreedComander 5 днів тому

    I've personally found if you put big items downstairs in the corners lift the stairs and purposely turn off gravity it's very rare anything ever flies up toward the seat. It works out much better if you're planning on going after salvage beacons.

    Been playing for about 20 to 25 hrs now, ngl, I just dont use the E brake.
    Pro tip btw yall: the truckers *WILL HIT YOU* even if you're "pulled over". I was literally filling up at a gas station, in Medusa Six I believe, last night and got hit BAD. Totaled my truck. Their pathing *SUCKS.* Highly suggest using tip 3 from here.
    Bonus pro tip: as I found out from that gasoline AI driveby from yesterday, truck WILL still run with little to no difference in performance even if HP = 0. Dont worry about totaling, worry about the cost to fix it.

    I love the game, but I just encountered my 3rd bug that caused me to have to abandon the cargo and get penalized. I had to just stop playing it until it gets a few patches. There's enough to spend money on as it is in game without bugs/glitches adding to it. FYI if your delivering cargo to Darkside, there's a cargo bay that has an invisible wall around it, and of your told to drop off in it, your S.O.L. Maybe I can spare someone my last fate

      They're just electric clouds. As long as you drive around them or drive through them quickly, they aren't a problem. Sometimes they spawn on a docking point for a shop or job board, so just watch the electric meter on the dash (left side, above cruise control) and make sure it's not filling up to the red.
