This will list ONLY jobs originating in that city.
Never travel empty, or “bobtail.” When you go to job selection, click on the dot on the map for the city you’re in. It’s way more expensive than on the mainland. Also note that if you turn slowly enough you can actually push cars blocking your trailer without causing damage. Slightly terrifying, but better than wasting hours going out of your way trying to get back on the right path. If it’s too far to the next exit and going to take too long, just carefully pull a u-turn, get on the shoulder, and head back the way you came. Miss your exit? Well… You won’t be penalized for driving the wrong way on the shoulder. They take a lot of the pain out of toll plazas. You can slow to 30 kph and breeze on through the EZPass lanes, so watch for those, there will be nothing blocking the close end and a red “30” or whatever above the entrance.
You don’t have to go to green squares and stop at most plazas. As of this writing you don’t get a bonus for delivering cargo early, so sleep on the clock. For the really long jobs you’ll have time to sleep 2 or 3 times and have time to spare for checking out new towns along your route. (Hit F6 to see exactly how much longer you have before you get sleepy) Most jobs will allot you enough time to sleep once, especially after you put a few points in the long distance skill, which you’ll want to do early on. Don’t bother sleeping between jobs unless the job selection where you’re at is lousy or your rest meter is nearly pegged. Start looking for a place to park after the first yawn, no sooner. Every time you rest it’s going to burn 8 hours, even if you’re not that tired yet. There is no such thing as a partial rest. Running with cruise control it’s easy to get in the zone and miss a speed limit sign. Watch the speed limit signs though, especially in areas where speed cameras are common. *Note: It’s been brought to my attention that the actual safe limit may be 10% over the speed limit. So set your cruise to 6 or 7 over the limit and travel at max efficiency without risking tickets. You can safely travel up to 9 kph over the posted speed limit without getting cited. Or how many times the distraction of having to constantly check my speed caused me to wander over the lines.īuilding on that, set your cruise tolerance to zero, turn on auto retarder. I played about 20 hours without it and I can’t even guess how many speeding violations I got or how many times out of fear of getting them I travelled under the speed limit costing me time.
