This mod is compatible with version 1.30 of Euro Truck Simulator 2 and includes a semaphore patch. It is designed to provide a maximum level of realism in the simulation. It’s important to note that starting out on your career will be challenging and the earnings will be low. Every mistake you make can result in significant financial losses. Enjoy your journey, gain experience, and become the ruler of the road transport empire.
