Increased steering sensitivity range and improved mouse steering non-linearity. The ability to toggle on or off. Fixes for disappearing pedestrians and driver log issues.
SCS Software is excellent, but no patch is perfect. Here are the bugs introduced in 1.6.1 that did not exist in 1.5.2.
: Increased the probability of generating shorter-distance jobs. Fixes Specific to 1.6.1
The transition from Euro Truck Simulator 2 Patch 1.5.2 to 1.6.1 serves as an exemplary case of a "minor version" increment carrying major technical debt and future-proofing. While the end-user saw only a few new roads and visual effects, the underlying changes—map format revision, shader updates, and AI scripting—were essential for the game’s longevity.
A new gameplay option was added to simulate fuel use based on driving style and cargo weight rather than a fixed distance-based average.
Players gained the ability to link their in-game profiles to the World of Trucks website, enabling custom license plates and driver avatars.
