Title: Location, Odometer, Truck Name
Post by: MikeMan on June 09, 2012, 16:23
In one of the more recent updates to CVT we've seen that in the box on the ride side of the screen which displays are fuel consumption, speed, and either or GPS or ODO, that the name of the vehicle was added. Now, i'm not sure if this was suggested or not so please don't rip me a new one, however,

I am suggesting that, instead of having a choice between, GPS or ODO (Odometer), we have both. I feel it'll be more realistic to the game and i feel it will be a successful addition since you have an easier understanding of where you are in the game by just looking instead of opening the map or switching over.

So in a nut shell im suggesting the right box reads:

-(Name of Vehicle)
-Speed
-Fuel
-Odometer
-GPS

and of course when i say GPS i mean current location. Again please don't hate just tell me whether its good or not.
Thanks

+ This is good idea and you can have better visibility.
- Speedometer box will be bigger.

Yes, however, you still have the option of hiding your HUD by pressing F8, and it wont be THAT much bigger. Perhaps 1 Line longer.

F8 is for taking screenshots.You mean to press F7 twice, but then i will lose my map and chat.If u mean on /hidetd it will hide my work bar too.I didn't said that this is good or bad idea,i just said what is good and what bad about this Suggestion.
And Yes,i think this suggestion is good :)

+1 i think this would be a good idea because sometimes i like to see the GPSS and other times i like to see the ODO. The box wouldn't be that much bigger, and if you don't like it, you can just /hidetd
