This is a smaller update focused on compatibility and fixes, also some clarification on the ATS 1.58 update and what's coming ahead.
I've also attached a video overview of the latest features from recent versions, recorded by Daniel from the moderator's team. Big thanks to him for putting it together! 🎬
___________________________
The changelog:
🚀 New / Improved

Road Connection between Alaska and Promods Canada
Alaska to Washington (No ferry)
Mods updated:

🐛 Fixed
Tweaks to the UI Scale feature:
No longer applies to config popups
Now applies correctly to waypoint popups on the map (also made the detection area for waypoint buttons a bit larger)
Fixed some issues where the scale wouldn't apply correctly after switching device orientation or restarting the app
⚠️ Known Issues
ATS 1.58: Works fine, but new map areas from the update won't be reflected yet. See below for details.
Routing can send you to the wrong company when two companies share the same name in a city
Occasional incorrect U-turn suggestions on highways

📋 A note on ATS 1.58
ATS 1.58 dropped recently, and the app currently runs on 1.57 map data. Many of the major map mods (like Promods Canada and Alaska) are still crashing or not yet compatible with 1.58, so updating the app right now would mean breaking support for those mods. The ideal solution would be to support both game versions simultaneously and let you choose, but the app isn't there yet.
So for now, the plan is to wait a few days until most important mods catch up with 1.58 and then release an update that brings everything up to date together. In the meantime, the app still works correctly with 1.58, the only difference is that the new/reworked map areas from the update won't match what you see in the app.

Happy trucking! 🚛

Hello, I have a question when will there be an update to version 1.58. Regards
Hello yes, we're waiting for Promods Europe to update at this moment, but if they take longer we'll update before then
So is the default map for 1.58 supported yet or are we still waiting? Not sure if I'm not doing something correctly.
Not yet, the app is still running on the 1.57 map, we're mostly waiting for Promods Europe to get updated at this moment but we'll update anyway if they take longer
Do you have now (or plan to have) a gear indicator? I want to get this, but I really need a gear indicator with my rig since I have a real dashboard and hide the game's dash.
