I do remember one other trick not a lot of people know about, when in automatic mode if you tap the gear select button quickly as if you were bringing up your gear stick you can actually Force the automatic transmission to either shift up or shift down to either accelerate quicker in an open straight, or if your encountering mud have the transmission downshift before it stalls out and goes back to first gear

если играешь на клавиатуре, то самое удобное это назначить передачи на numpad и при ускорении или замедлении грузовика нажимать на 5, тогда происходит ручное переключение. так же можно использовать shift но важно не передвигать курсор, он будет передвигать рычаг.

Tricks I use: When crashed, sunk or tipped over, i quit the game and reload since last autosave. Thats faster than trying to recover. Infinite cargo- if you need wooden planks for example and somewhere on the map is a task where you are given a trailer with wooden planks that need to be delivered somewhere, id accept the task, take the planks off the trailer, reset the task and new trailer with planks will appear.

Now that is genius. Massively cheesy, but God damn genius

One big tip is in the settings change steering from controller to wheel. When its in wheel mode, when you let go of the joystick, the steering wheel will recenter just like every other game with a car. When you leave it as controller, you need to recenter the steering wheel, the driving is the same as the original grand theft auto 2d game.

I also use this. Another hidden advantage of using this method is if you stuck in mud, you can creep your way out by repeatedly switching between L+ and H (offroad gearbox only)

I figured out a lot of these on my own (trees as anchors, road trains, using the crane to get unstuck, etc), but wow this video would have been convenient when the game first came out. Excellent stuff!

New player here! @ 9:08 "Use your crane to help you get unstuck. This trick could really help you one day." -- CAN CONFIRM! LOL. I just had to do that to get out of a nasty mud trap in "Drowned Lands". Literally would have been 100% completely impossible to self-recover my International HX520 without it. Watched this video when I was just starting out, and have had these tips in mind as I explored. Additional to the crane, I had the Articulated Towing Platform equipped and used it similarly to angle and dig in to push my truck forward a little while bracing with the crane in another spot. Great advice, thanks! 😄

@renaissancedoot9919

I did that exact same thing with the towing platform once.

For hauling lots of logs in one trip, put all of them unpacked in the trailer/addon, remove them until you have 3 (the ammount required for packing) with the crane, pack, deliver, put 3 more back in with the crane, rinse and repeat. I've delivered 6 packs of medium logs with a single simple medium logs addon. Be careful though, you GOT to drive smoothly so they don't fall from the back of the addon. Sides and front are okay.

Great tips. For the road trains, when you come across a tight corner or don't have the power to pull it up, if your train looks like the one in the video where it's 2 trucks with 2 trailers each, you break your train and try to do each truck with it's 2 trailers, if that fails then do each truck with 1 trailer and drop your trailer, reverse back and get the second one. Depending how narrow the area is you might have to take the trailers further before you drop them but this is still a lot faster than doing 2 trips since most of the time the distance is very far. Also if you do 2 trips you might still take a second vehicle with you to use as an anchor point in some sections where it's super muddy.

Your observations on cargo weight are correct. There is a chart that shows the difference in weight for all cargo types as per game config files - even the heaviest of loads are not more than 2 tons when unpacked. For example long logs are 0,8t vs 12 t when packed! Oil rig is 2t vs 10 t unpacked!

At start if you have Season 1 pass, you have decent trucks already in first garage- International HX 520 or that KRS 58 Bandit. Bandit can be used as piggy bank if you dont like its fuel tank and better choice in my opinion is Paystar 5070 which is unlocked from level 0, 6x6 from beggining and diff lock capable. Options for attachments are nice-almost every thing which you need at first 2-3 maps. Even it can get crane+bed+trailer combo. This all for ~75K $

Brilliant. Yes I've stacked cargo on top but always lengthwise. I just never thought of doing it sidways.

Another one is if your using the controller and you see your truck tipping. Double tap Y. The direction you are looking will be the direction you will put out a winch rope Very handy at times and also pays to be aware of winch points in difficult terrain. Also, when in the cab of your truck, you can go through swamps this was as well. The winch line will shoot out the direction you are looking, allowing you to quickly travel to places like that.

dont forget the unhooking trailer. if you are pulling a trailer and feel like you are getting stuck in mud or something. unhook the trailer and the truck becomes lighter and can probably free yourself and winch the trailer towards you.

The overloading trick blew my mind. I’m definitely doing that from now on.

Figured this out a few days ago. It’s been a challenge now to see how much shit you can stack up on one truck 😂

11:33 - unpacked cargo has less weight for cranes ) You can also unpack logs - you'll get much less weight and only 3 trees inside. And you can load like 15-21 trees in cargo trailer and the pack them by 3 at destination - that equals to 5-7 usual runs.

Geez, that sounds like a massive tip o_o Thanks for sharing that.

My "Hard mode" strategy: 1. Accept a contract like “Deliver a 2000-liter trailer of fuel to a cold, distant village to save civilians.” 2. Pump fuel from the trailer for driving on other contracts until there is 250 liters of fuel left in the trailer. 3. Deliver this almost empty fuel truck to a cold, distant village. 4. Contract completed "Thank you for your help. Now civilians are provided with fuel for the long long, cold winter!" 5. "My pleasure!"... And pump out the remaining 250 liters of fuel from the trailer, if it not dissapear.

Using a tree for leverage for a small truck to lift a larger truck is a great idea. I've been playing for a while and I'm sorry I didn't think about it sooner!

Go to EVERY OLD MAP and hunt down EVERY trailer you ever left everywhere when yoy have monstrous trucks late game. I recovered about 400,000 in trailers from all my old DLC maps 😆. And its fun to revisit old maps with a reason in mind. Just a tip from a Snowrunner fan 👌

Advanced trick (more like exploit lol) that has saved me countless times: Since the devs have programmed the small cranes to open with the might of Zeus when you activate them, and they continue the opening animation even if your engine shuts down midway through it, you can use the small cranes to save yourself if you see that your truck is going to flip over (but only to the right, since that's the direction the small cranes open to). Basically, if you see that you have screwed up and your truck is flipping to the right, quickly open the functions menu and activate the crane, D-Pad Up and Square, just two buttons so it's super quick. If you manage to do these inputs before your engine shuts down it won't even matter if your truck flips and the engine turns off, once the crane opening animation has started it will play out regardless. At the very least it will hold the truck a bit more vertical so you can turn the engine on again and try to save yourself with the winch or with the crane itself (by pushing it down against the ground). At best, the opening of the crane might even bounce the truck right back onto its wheels and you can just keep going. Hope this helps someone out there o7

TOP advices I've ever met! Respect!

Thanks for your tips. Especially winch point from the rear really helps me. I barely delivered large fuel tank on first map yesterday. But winching tank's back helps a lot.

@tvctaswegia497

If your truck or winch is not great, do not autowinch, always winch from rear. What he didn't say is that winch power increases with the line length. That's why you can winch easily from far away but the last few metres is tough. Always maximise your line length for maximum pulling power.

Overload is Very OP 🤩

Some great tips, thanks. Found the stacked cargo very interesting .

Best tip video I've seen. Very clever tips that don't take away from the experience.

I already use every one of these lol but I learned the hard way.

Stability with unpack truck makes sense. When you pack it, the center of mass is higher, making the truck tippy'er.

If you have to drive along a sloped surface that can tip you over you can use your crane or even your own cargo as a counter weight by lifting it over to the side of your truck. It has gotten me past a few otherwise impossible areas before.

Most useful tip, not mentioned here - do not use flatbed addon. Where you going uphill, at some point (steep enough ramp) the load can just slide off. Better have other addon, if load gets unpacked, it will stay in there long enough for you to notice and stop and pack it again.

Thx About your repair station trick: There is no need to leave the repair point to fill up again. You can stay within for the whole process. Love the overloaded crane. However, I usually have cargo, the crane just barely can lift a single piece. I used the reset of maps to un-stuck a truck. E.g. I had a 73210 with crane tipped and sunk in ice in Amur Urska. No Tayga, no 605 was able to pull it out.

I used the right material from the wrong trailer when delivering...and that screwed up that. Period. Thanks for a great vid.

Another trick is that unpacked cargo has no collision with environment, so for cumbersome cargo you can just unpack and pack if you get stuck with a tree or similar.

Another tip is to look for the Tire Comparison spreadsheet. There is such thing as the best mud tyres for the current truck you are using.

The Azov 73210 😍

Those are very good and useful tricks! I was expecting more common stuff

Indeed , i just saw a chart for cargo weight, unpacked cargo is strangely lighter than packed. I suppose so you can lift it with a crane? For example those pipes are around 1 ton unpacked and 5 or 6 tones packed from what i remember.

Amazing winch tips

I been stuck hauling loads with a damn truck with no 4 wheel drive. It gets the job done but i need a good 4 wheel drive for some of the extra rough terrain.

best tip : if you flip over your truck press alt+f4 (wait for save sync) and load game again, mostly it will load before the crash

@vladvulcan

no bonus points. In fact, there are no points at all in the game, only money and experience

With the introduction of the New Game+ start even if u havent fully completed the game once already i would recommend starting any new game or if its your first to use this New Game+ and consider changing a few starting conditions. The first 1 i would turn off is the ability to recover truck. With this option turned off u cant just throw your truck into every situation becouse if u get stuck u actually have to send another truck over there to assist it. Maybe not turn this off if its your first time ever playing the game but if u know the basics i would recommend to turn recover truck off. Another starting condition i would change is the truck and trailer sell%, Trucks to 50% and trailers to 10% or 30% if u dont wanna go as low as 10%. There are so many free trailers around that u dont even need to buy any for the basic 1-2 slot cargo and the once u use can be placed on main roads making it easy to go get them if u do need them. Setting trailer sell% this low also makes u not wanna use a trailer shop as a free garage by buying a Service trailer refueling and repairing from it and then sell it back again at full price. With trailer sell% low u cant just resupply for free at a trailer store. Another setting to change is to not get a free repair and fuel if u enter a garage and instead making use of the diffrent service trailers and fuel trailers. U will find duplicate trucks that u just dont wanna use and when u find them u generally have to repair them to some degree or try to tow a broken truck back to a main road where u can have a service trailer or a truck with the Van body to repair it. Having the recovery option turned off makes it so u cant just discover a truck or drive until the tank is empty and instantly teleport it back to the garage. It also makes it so u cant drive crazy becouse if u speed crash and pop a hole in the tank and u cant repair it or if u bust the suspension your most likly gonna need to bring a repair truck over there unless your very close to a service trailer already. The reson for having truck sell% at 50% is becouse pretty mutch all trucks u get to keep need some repair and getting its 100% full value or even 80% i think it is now after a patch a while ago is still abit to mutch imo. U can unlock 2 free Scout Tatarins in Russia fairly easily each value of around 140k and even if u just sell 1 at full price u still kinda break the cash flow abit to mutch. If u wanna include DLC trucks or not i dont think matter as mutch however if u decide to include them i would set your own rule that even if u never use a specific DLC truck to never sell it becouse most of them sell for ALOT even with the 50% truck sell option. When it comes to mods its gonna differ what each person thinks is okey. Me myself i only use 1 mod and its the modded scout Khan 39 Marshal and i will be the first to admit that the thing is overpowered as hell to the point that u can pull heavy trucks out of deep mud with it if u really wanted to. I have the pre-order version of the Khan but when they nerfed it by slicing its fuel tank in half they completely destroyed its viability when u dont know where the next fuel station or fuel trailer is gonna be. When u scout out new areas the last thing u wanna worry about is running out of fuel. So thats why i use the mod instead of the in-game 1. However just like the not selling DLC trucks i have a specific rule to never tow anything that isent another scout truck or a trailer meant for scouts like the scout fuel trailer for example. I may use its winch to flip a truck over if it tips but i will never tow any truck bigger then a scout with it.

i understand the high range gearbox one, but to get back p to speed i usually just use the clutch tapping thing

bro this is very helpfull thanks

Hm, in my experience in general turning off AWD provides a better turning radius in game and this holds true for real life as well as you get a much better radius when the front wheels are not driven by the gearbox and having the max angle of attack limited by the tourqe on the input shafts. But perhaps for larger trucks as you said, and especially trucks with multiple wheels on the steering axis I can imagine why AWD would indeed improve radius.

on which maps do you recommend using high gearboxes rather than off-road?
