Ideas to improve the trucking depot:

[Stevie]

·         Designate a new parking space for personal vehicles. The last bay to store the vehicles is unseen by many players and is easily overlooked. Players pile up cars (sometimes in the middle of the depot) as they don't know where it is. Moving it to the back of the depot from the sea side could help players notice it more. Also making a sign saying you can return unused trucks should be in place since not many players know it exists. 

·         Trucks and loads should be spawned in two separate locations. The amount of trucks and loads I see blown up because they get requested at the same time is fucked. We wouldn’t need god to come down and clear the yard every half an hour if those two locations got divided up. It would reduce the amount of blown up vehicles and make the place cleaner to operate in.

·         I’ve seen the police have already tried to introduce the one-way system putting up barricades to prevent traffic jams building from up and it’s a good start. If there was a way to permanently add road blockades to separate traffic going in an out with would help the depot a lot.  ( One way system implemented, being tested atm. )

·         Some long trucking runs are underpaid. A trip to Lago Zancudo is ~5miles one way and it only pays out 5k-6k. This is an easily 20k~ run. There are a few more runs that underpay and I’m making a spreadsheet to keep track of payouts. I’m yet to get 20k from Lago Zancudo.

These are just a few,
Thanks for reading.

·         Designate a parking space for personal vehicles. They are constantly being impounded by the police even if they’re parked out of the way of the trucks. I’m sick of paying 5k every time it gets impounded. We need a parking space around the hub.

There's already a parking space for cars at the Depot, it's right underneath where the trailers spawn (Fuel Trailers)

Yeah that's where I leave my car. Whenever I come back after an hour of trucking it's been either de-spawned or impounded by the police.

No no no, you're not getting it. Let me get you a screenshot.

Park your car in the spot shown below (Press E and let it store) and it'll go into the staff garage (It's in an actual parking garage when it's like this, stored out of the way of police and people alike)

Oh I didn't actually know about this my bad, thank you

No worries, if you can tell everyone down there about it too that'd be fantastic

When you're finished with rented trucks you can store those in there too and they'll disappear forever and not clog the hub, please inform people you see leaving stuff lying around that this exists

I'v been playing for over a week now and I hadn't a clue about it. I'm sure there's many more who don't know about it either. I'll spread the word

I say, make the truck stop trucks only - so if you are in any other car, except emergency services you cannot leave you car/dismount.  That will force people to park outside of the compound.   The only issue then is that we still need to enforce a one-way system somehow as it's mayhem, I think the compound needs a dev redesign, then someone to manage the traffic flow it IG/IC - not the Police but perhaps a worker.

The idea of having the car parking bay in the busiest corner where trucks and trailers are trying to bottleneck into is the silliest idea ever. 

I was using my van for storage while I was taking oil containers off from people (roleplaying that I would be recycling but also to try and cut down on the amount of oil containers dumped around the city) and due to their weight needed to regularly fill it up my van. I 100% get it's not wanted to be in the way where trucks are going to go so I parked between some concrete walls on the other side of the hub (like, otherside of the building) first time around, to find police then impounded it..

I then spoke to the chap coordinating things in the yard keeping it moving and got permission to park near the new wall in the middle but this was admin cleaned away. Police on scene were happy for it to be there also. 

This doesn't make sense and it implies staff/police would prefer I get my van in and out of parking in the middle of where all the trucks and trailers are being spawned and driven as opposed to it being parked well on the otherside of the location where it's not causing any obstruction or issue.

With recent work, I don't believe this is required as such due to recent updates.
