Improved Truck Physics for ATS
Compatible with 1.2.x of ATS, but should work on older versions too!
- Mod adds more realistic and hard physics for ATS trucks
- It is now more difficult to drive a truck, "feel" of the truck is increased
- Changed driver body movement physics, which is now less static
- Added five new modes for windshield wipers for vanilla and mod trucks (four intermittment modes, one long, one short) from 15 item list
- Lots of changes was made in truck behavior:

- Lots of changes was made in truck behavior:
- Changed cabin weight to a more realistic value
- Changed brake efficiency: less overall effectiveness an less effectiveness at low speed (but higher upper margin of "low speed"). Increased max. brakes temperature, increased warm up/cool down rates
- Decreased autocentering speed of steering wheel. Decreased truck turning ability
- Increased rotational wheel resistance and air resistance. Also, increased inertia - slower acceleration and stopping
- Increased clutch strength for more realistic clutch-transmission behavior
- Decreased retarder effectiveness
- Increased chassis suspension travel values for vanilla trucks
- Slightly decreased overall damping force for truck/trailer chassis suspension
- Transmission inertia decreased
- Added tyres slip possibility. Tyres a little less rigid now
- Increased flywheel resistance - RPM drops faster, when not in gear
- Increased intensity of engine braking - truck slow downs faster, when truck is not given throttle
- Decreased engine compression - truck loses speed more quicker, when no throttle is given
- Increased transmission resistance - more losses in transmission

Installation:
1. Extract .scs file from downloaded archive to mod folder of ATS
2. Open in-game mod manager and enable "Improved truck physics" mod
3. Play!
Important:
If you will use this mod with supported truck mods (look at added trucks list), use it with higher priority!
