unfortunally there are still some kinks in it:
sometimes when i drive throught the gate to the company, i hit ivissible objects, giving me damage in the range 14%-50%
or if you are close to the barrier in the midle of the road (close, but still not touching it, then you are suddently hitting it a few times, giving small damage 3%-5% damage.
if you run a curbe you also get damage 5%-10% where as with the normal tractor/trailer, you could drive on the sidewalk, not hitting a thing.
