Real World Economy v1.3 (1.37.x) for ETS2 | Euro Truck Simulator 2 game.
- is a mod that brings more reality in Euro Truck Simulator 2 game.
1)Truck Prices/PartsThe price of every truck has been checked through the internet and updated accordingly.
2)RevenueThe game offers 30-50 euros per km which is way more unrealistic. FYI, an average European truck driver earns 0.5-2 euros per km. The revenues are updated accordingly.
3)Bankthe bank is the most important part of a European truck drivers career. The banking system has been modified as follows:
i) 9 Loans
Added 5 more loan amounts. Now, there are a total of 9 different amounts of loans that can be availed.
ii) Interest Rate
The interest rates have been made real. The interest rates have been increased slightly.
iii) Time duration
The time duration in the game to pay the loans are way more unrealistic. Generally, a vehicle loan
lasts between 2-5 years. The values have been updated according to the data available on the internet.
iv) Credit Limits
In real life, credit limits are calculated based on your earnings. But in-game, SCS calculates credit
values based on your level, I have increased credit values up to 5 Million Euros which will increase till Level 70.
4)Fuel pricesFuel prices have been updated for every country according to the data on 6th July 2020.
5)Towing and Refueling pricesThese prices are updated according to the real-world prices. Eg refueling is quite cheaper in the real world.
6)Police finePolice taking 140 euros for red-light jump and just 200 euros for crash is way more unrealistic. Fines are now updated according to the information about the fines in France.
7)Ferry/Train PricesThese prices are updated and the info was collected from private ferries' websites.
8)Ai DriversThe majority of profits earned by Ai drivers now go to you. AI drivers are paid wages realistically. Now, there is not much difference between the earnings of you and ai driver. But, the difference is that a share of ai driver's earning is given to you.
9)Time LimitsThe time limits to deliver the trailer/cargo has been made realistic according to the data collected from the Web.
10)Currency of the worldCurrencies of more than 60 countries have been added to make you feel home country. Players from countries that have a high currency conversion rate will feel the game way more realistic as you won't earn millions from a deliver
.
11)Garage valuesThese values have been updated according to data on property selling websites.
11)Trailer Prices - the prices of trailers have been updated accord to real-world data.
12)Tollgate - I have updated the toll prices for all the countries except Italy and France. I will update their value in future update.
13)Damage Data - the real European truckers are really excellent at their job and usually don't deal with damages to trucks unlike us. Although, the damage data by SCS is very realistic but a not so good player can't maintain finances with such damage data. So, to balance out the money, the damage rate has been reduced slightly.
14)Initial Start - Now you start a new game with 500 euros instead of 2000 euros.
