Title: [Suggestion] Improving the turn signals while driving
Post by: Deff on April 25, 2015, 16:15
When we look left or right our turn signal is activated which blinks our headlight in the game.

This is good but the person behind us (behind us could be our convoy mate), cannot see the signal.

So in order that the player behind us is also able to see the turn signal, turn signal needs to be visible to him too!

How is this possible?
The screenshot below says it all!

So when we type Q or E, that message "<<" or ">>" should be displayed above our trucks along with blinking of headlights.
When we type Q, then "<<" should be displayed, and ">>" for E.

FAQ:
Why can't you just type ">>" or "<<" and stop being lazy?
It spams the main chat, for those messages to be seen above the head, they need to be typed on mainchat, i.e. cb19 only.

you could just get the cleo version or 'turn indicators' if you really want to use them that badly

Yeah! Why would anyone use them when no one can see them? A signal is meant to communicate the message to others, when it is not serving its purpose why would anyone use it?

No you didn't get the purpose Ethan. Cleo cannot be seen by others. When signals can't be seen by others, what is the use of making or using signals? they are meant to be seen by others to get the idea of where we are actually going or making turns.

Not a bad idea...less accidents would be then at turns  :like:
But who drives like in real life? I think nobody, because this is GTA and we often break driving rules :dislike:

I DO use the turning signals.  So, please, if you could make the turning signals work in the front lights of the vehicles, why can't you also make it work in the back lights and in the trailer's lights. Then turnings signals would be much more useful. Thank you.
