๐ CargoLite Extended โ First Preview
A major new expansion for CargoLite is now in development!
I've managed to create completely custom passenger pickup and drop-off locations directly on the ETS2 map. This means passenger jobs no longer have to start or end at traditional company depots.
For example, Uber Rides can now take you directly to realistic locations such as:
Hotels
Residential buildings
City streets
Parking areas
Other suitable passenger locations
There are no traditional company yards or visible trailer setups. You simply drive to the location, enter the pickup marker and collect the passenger โ making the experience feel much closer to an actual Uber-style ride.
๐บ๏ธ Introducing CargoLite Extended
Since these custom locations are built around ProMods, I'm planning to release this as a separate, optional expansion called CargoLite Extended.
Important compatibility information:
CargoLite โ Cars & Vans: The regular version will remain available without requiring ProMods.
CargoLite Extended: Will require ProMods and all map DLCs required by ProMods.
This way, players who don't use ProMods can continue enjoying the regular CargoLite experience without any changes.
๐ Development Progress & Future Plans
I'm currently focusing on western Germany and the Benelux region, starting with Dรผsseldorf and Cologne.
The plan is to gradually introduce more custom locations across the map, expanding the available Uber Ride network step by step.
I'm also planning to integrate Airport Passengers into this new system, allowing more realistic passenger pickups and drop-offs at airports.
Since this is my first time working with ETS2 map modding, creating and integrating these custom locations is taking quite a bit of time. There's a lot to learn, test and fine-tune, so I'll be expanding the system gradually rather than trying to cover the entire map at once.
This is a major new direction for CargoLite, and Uber Rides are just the beginning. I'm excited to see how far I can take this system in future updates!
More soon! ๐๐
