After building the Freight Force base in Milan, I turned my eyes more north of Europe decided to build a Captain Logistics base in Hanover, Germany! Version 1.1.0 introduced the Captain Logistics Hub, and Version 1.2.0 makes it even better. The update was challenging to develop, but I’ll walk you through the improvements at the Captain Logistics base
Before I go over that, I’d like to thank captainorigami01 for the slight return to Captain Logistics as Content Creator. Our VTCs have both formed a partnership to make things clearer, and Captain Logistics gave me permission to build this base. Anyways, Fasten your seatbelts and enjoy the tour around this new base!!
The Garage
Starting off then, obviously for the community mod every base needs a garage. When I found this base in Hanover I thought ‘Ohh this is a good one’ Because the amount land just behind (which we will get too in a shortly) was perfect for a captain logistics base. Also, a Scania dealership was near by from the base and I know how much Captain Logistics love Scania’s 🤣. Anyways, the garage is always important for a base in the community mod but that’s a story for another time!
Adding Euro Goodies
Eurogoodies? In the Captain Logistics base? Yes, this is for real and this was the most difficult part of building this base. captainorigami01 suggested to me if I can put a job market here, at first reaction I thought ‘Oh right, that’s going to be tough but I’ll give it a go!’ and give it a go I did! Hours of Research, Hours to make & build and Hours of scripting, I managed to get there and pulled it off somehow! and here’s what it looks like in the base:
Jobs here are fully working, Freight market is working, Cargo market I haven’t tried yet because I only got a flat bed trailer and they don’t work at EuroGoodies😅. Integrating this company into the Captain Logistics base was the toughest task I’ve tackled in the ETS2 editor. But we made it happen — and achieving it is what matters most. So lets make the next turn into the parking bays!
This was easy to create, as I had done it for the Freight Force base back in Milan & I may as well do it here in Hanover. No surprise at all, this turned out to be a piece of cake.
Parking bays and rest area for Captain Logistics
VTC parking bays act as dedicated truck rest areas and convenient staging points for convoys organized by the company. These bays help drivers prepare, rest, and line up smoothly before each journey. As it stands for the Community mod, this is the best parking bay! Only because it’s right next to EuroGoodies so that’s the slight advantage they’ll have for now 😂.
Trucky dispatcher integration
Another thing I want to clear up, when you have the mod installed, trucky (if you use that, I highly recommend to those that don’t have it) will pick up your job okay and it will say you’ve taken or delivered cargo to EuroGoodies in Hannover. I was expecting for this to work on the first try and did, so that’s something to celebrate!!
Captain Logistics base expansion – UNDER CONSTRUCTION
The final part I want to share quickly, This construction site will be here for this update. I’m planning something here at the moment & I will share that information later. Anyways that will conclude this tour around the Captain Logistics base. We’ll release this mod update as soon as SCS Software launches update 1.56. The new version will be available on TruckyMods shortly after.
CONCLUSION AND DOWNLOAD
This will conclude the blog and I’ll leave you with this for now, Will’s Community Mod for American Truck Simulator is in the planning! Project development hasn’t begun yet, but planning is underway to bring new updates to the Captain Logistics base.
Take care of yourselves and I’ll see you soon!
Reminder: This ETS2 mod requires all official map DLCs to run correctly. Download the mod from TruckyMods only after you install all ETS2 map expansions to ensure it runs smoothly
