Real Cargo Weight 1.0.2 - RCW

Description
Mod corrects cargo weights and *rewards.
Actually it affect only specs in `dlc_oversize` DLC, while `dlc_heavy_cargo` and `dlc_trailers` are looks legit.

(!) ATS mod version is on a scssoft forum[forum.scssoft.com] (!)

Requirements:
  • Special Transport DLC

ETS2 versions:
  • 1.41 - made from
  • 1.42 - tested
  • probably should work on older/newer versions due it use dlc content only.

Specs:
  • Boiler Part 45t(70t) to 140t, reward 36 to 107
  • Cat 785c 55t(70t) to 102t, reward 39 to 94
  • Industrial Condenser 120t, reward 39 to 110
  • Cat 6060 excavator Bucket 25t to 40t, reward 31.5 to 62
  • Coiled Heat exchanger 77t(70t) to 163t, reward 40.5 to 172
  • Construction Staircase 55t, reward 33 to 45
  • Michelin 59/80 R63 x4 20t to 19.6t, reward 31.5 to 38
  • Silo 40t to 30t, reward 31.5 to 37
  • Service Boat 25t to 14t, reward 37.5 to 42
  • Mystery box 44t, reward 39 to 64
  • Mystery cylinder 45t, reward 36 to 54

Idea:
  • Biggest boilers are 120-140t, ingame looks huge.
  • Cat 785c is 102t
  • Industrial Condensers upto 120t
  • Cat 6060 mass is 500t, bucket should be near 40t while bucket for 75t trucks near 4.5t
  • Coiled Heat exchangers 5m x 55m are 500t, ingame size 5x18, so it gives us 163t
  • Construction Staircase aren't huge, keep standart 55t
  • Michelin 59/80 R63 4.9t each there are 4 like this, it gives us 19.6t.
  • Silo can contain 250t-500t of different stuff, once installed, 500t silo weight 28t, thisone have "giant" label, so let's say 30t
  • Service Boat looks like Cabin cruiser for 48f size, it's 14t of weight
  • Mystery box/cylinder left as they are 44t & 45t, just reward was corrected.

Advices:
  • Steer carefully when drive huge cargo
  • Speed is your friend when road goes up
  • Retarder is your friend when road goes down
  • Diff-lock is your best friend
  • Shifter is better friend than A-transmission even in powermode
  • Lift axle for stronger contact on a "non-flat roads"

P.S. Default speed limit 60 km/h is more than enough, in some countries it's x2 slower.

Personal tests
Using 600hp motor and 6x4 chassis you can complete 120t delivery and even 150t delivery well and in time, it will cost you 100l/100km 8-)

Ordering: above all the mods which affect cargo.

@darkomastar thanks :)

@nikitasius No problem yet in ATS. BTW, ATS is on sale right now. 75% for the base game. Should be good value to buy.

@darkomastar cool :)

if there are some issues, post them here, i will check. Normally it should be fine, it's made same way as an ETS2 mod: rewards & weight are changed.

Thanks. Will try it in ATS.

hi @darkomastar , i already made a mod for ATS on a
scssoft forum [forum.scssoft.com].

I can't post it in steam because i don't have ATS game :| (to share mods for the games you need to have those games).

But you can download it manually and place inside a mod folder.
