Open the Dispatcher
Make sure you make a save or quick save in-game before, in order to open the Dispatcher:
- In the game, you have to press ALT + D, works only if you have the Overlay enabled
- Out of the game, open normally Trucky from the tray icon and click on the “Dispatcher”
Game, profile and save selection
If not automatically selected, select one game (ATS or ETS)
Choose your profile if it’s not already chosen, your profile needs to be local, turn off Steam Cloud. Trucky will load automatically your last game save.
Please use ALWAYS Quick Saves or Manual Saves. Don’t save edit your Autosaves.
Load Save Edit from the cloud allows you to paste code to either get a job, a job list, or a position
Delivery Management
First, choose if you want freight or cargo market, then to create a delivery choose your cites, companies, and cargo, for example:
Freight Market is always available – Cargo Market is available only when the game is running and Trucky correctly connected to the game.
You can use the Dispatcher on Freight Market also with the game closed. If you don’t like the overlay, you can always use the Dispatcher from the Desktop Window, ALT+TABBING from the game to the Desktop.
Cargo market only: choose what difficulty you want to pick up your job and Long trailers setting turns your truck and trailer in the exit direction.
Then, press Add delivery, you can add as many deliveries as you want. Freight Market jobs can be stacked and added in a batch into the game save. ⚠️ Only one delivery for Cargo Market because of game limitations.
When job are stacked, they have a “sliding expiration time”: the first job expires after X, the second after X+Y, the third after X+Y+Z and so on. So you have all the time to reach each destination and find the job available for next run.
Finally, press Update Game Save and reload your save! Don’t forget this step!
Reload the save!
Reload the save you have just edited. There are differences how you should expect to take the loads you created via the Dispatcher, if Freight Market or Cargo Market, as described below.
Freight Market
Jobs injected are available in the Freight Market list. You have to select them, reach the source company, access the Company Jobs from the rotating marker and take the job, attach the trailer.
If you don’t find the job immediately, search for the source city name or order by expiration date in descending order.
Cargo Market
When reloading the save, the job is already assigned, like you have reached the source company and selected the job from the Cargo Market list.
Now you have to reach the green flag on the map (the source company)
You will find also the red flag, the destination company
Approach the loading bay and load the cargo
Sharing and importing Dispatches
Every job dispatched from Trucky has:
- a single Job Unique ID
- associated to a Job List ID
You can import either the single job id or the jobs list id, Trucky will recognize if it’s a single or list and will import the Dispatch content.
You can create Dispatches also without writing game to the game save: every time you create a Dispatch, the job content is saved on Trucky servers and will be immediately available for other users.
Copy buttons permits to copy quickly the single Job ID or the Jobs List ID.
You can even feed a Jobs List ID adding new Jobs:
The Permalink permits to share the Jobs List publicly on the Trucky HUB website: example https://hub.truckyapp.com/dispatch/MGNBU0M9
