It seems like the spheres won't draw and i can't connect the trailer even uppering the slider at the configs tab

Thank you for using the discussion :>
By config tab do you mean the tab under Simfphys Server & Client settings? I know that was recently added. There should be a drawspheres toggle at the top as well as TR: spheres renderer initializated in console.

Trailers should autoconnect by default anyways but I noticed that if trailers are struggling to reach the position they should be in, they wont connect but instead kinda pull toward each other anyways. Try doing "trailers_connect" in console once the trailers look like they should connect.

i haven't tried trailers_connect because since i've installed the mod, the console just don't appear, but don't worry i think it is related to something else in my game, still gotta check that out

@Cipher, you're writing "trailers_connect" not sitting in vehicle

i hope it would help :D

Actually, the problem regarding the trailer connect function was fixed just by re-joining the game. Kinda weird

Also, not excatly an emergency, but the TDM single axle box trailer don't have the connect sphere on the back, making it impossible to build doubles.

@Lensilver axle box should not have hitch from back
Lensilver 19 Jul, 2020 @ 1:45am 
It is like that because of some limitation or something? Because short single axle trailers are frequently used as doubles. Plus there is the attach point on the model
Supine 💖 59  [developer] 19 Jul, 2020 @ 1:47am 
it's not limitation of TR, i even support circular connections (see my screenshots).
le me check

@Lensilver oh ♥♥♥♥, i'm sorry

@Lensilver do you confirm work of it?
Lensilver 19 Jul, 2020 @ 10:44pm 
"do you confirm work of it?"

It seems like thesphere on the back of the single axle trailer is way too close to the hitbox, but that could be fixed just by raising the value of the detection radius. But still.

Also, not so important but i would reccomend lowering the single axle's king pin (pin that goes trough the truck's fifth wheel (Truck's hitch)) sphere, because it makes the trailer front way too high.

Other than that, nice work porting the trailers and re-making the add-on altogether! It would be great if you ported SGM's Peterbilt 379 + more and it's trailers as well.

@RyanS01, whoops, i'm forcing autoconnection, and disabling it doesn't do anything, sorry,i'll try to fix it
