not far; 900xp a delivery doesn't help much when you need nearly 10k to hit next level

[NekoNeko]

aww..bummer...so will it take you another night to get the amount you need..or do you think longer?

[Resh1138]

longer; until Arizona DLC comes out there just aren't the higher xp bonuses for distance which makes easy leveling become possible

base xp = 1/km
bonuses that can be added on(varies by distance and delivery):
Long distance +25% xp bonus(kicks in after 250 miles)
high value +18% xp bonus
fragile +22% xp bonus
just in time: +20% for important or +30% urgent

[NekoNeko]

ouch....that sucks

Edit : ..I never asked this ..but ..does what you carry affect your gained bonus' ?
like if it was oil or grains....or animal cargo trailers???

Edit 2 : I'm off to bed ...3am here..this kitty is done for the day..be good

[Resh1138]

Oil and all other ADR goods give only monetary boosts

Livestock/Box/Reefer trailers/gravel/grain/etc... All give the same standard base xp per mile; they get boosted if they are rush orders or have other related modifiers attached

Example:
High Value fragile loads like luxury cars will provide the base trailer with those two modifiers attached

[NekoNeko]

ohhh...okay ..I understand now

[Resh1138]

basically distance = xp

so with ~900 miles current max delivery distance you are limited to ~900 max base xp

given that most deliveries will only have 2-3 modifier boosts you tend to not get more than 1200 total xp on the high side

[NekoNeko]

hummm....I guess that's not so bad,,is there much of a delay between hauls?

[Resh1138]

each haul is ~20 min irl; the delay between them varies upon rng job market having things close to where you are

[NekoNeko]

'kay-'kay
..how's tonight's game-play going?

[Resh1138]

not much; was and still am am watching a cbt livestream of the Arizona expansion

should i get the vegas garage and a truck(will want that garage so it will be a quick trip to Phoenix) or just get more trucks for ai drivers in my LA garage

Edit: I bought the Vegas garage; if I manage to grind out the 500k to finish filling the LA garage I'll let you know; otherwise don't expect too many updates

[NekoNeko]

late getting here...
how much time and mileage do you now save going to Phoenix ??

[Resh1138]

Not enough to notice as of now; it's just so that I can quick travel close to Arizona when the next patch comes(so a month at most)

Next truck should be bought in 2 trips

Arizona patch is in closed beta so thus no real solid info on release

[NekoNeko]

hummm....Nice...
...at least they could give a guesstimate on the what could be in store when the patch is finally out that would be kinda nice

[Resh1138]

i know what towns and other stuff are in that dlc patch; just nothing of the release date

[NekoNeko]

ahhhh...'kay-'kay...I had thought other wise...a general type announcement "there will be a patch to add Arizona" but not other info at all...

[Resh1138]

ahhhh...'kay-'kay...I had thought other wise...a general type announcement "there will be a patch to add Arizona" but not other info at all...

there was a closed beta version livestream that they had allowed last weekend

[NekoNeko]

'kay ...how was your gaming last night?

[NekoNeko]

arrrgh! ,,,I am trying to migrate my older comp's data and OS over to a new drive .....it is not being happy about it ...actually I believe it may just be a bad drive I'm trying to migrate it over to....I did have it checked ..but that was a while ago....

*crosses fingers.....here's to hoping it will go alright with ghost 9's back-up ...didn't with it's original back-up ....*

*sigh* ..was a wonky drive after all ...bummer....*

Edit : ...well I did manage to get a working OS on that drive...just not my back-up of the version I wanted...a strange flaw in the drive would not allow it to resize an image file with out mis-aligning the data blocks to the orientation of the cylinder heads ....was a 1 in a million drives...gesh .....

[Resh1138]

Sorry for taking so long; have had a horrible sleep schedule due to both the open beta of the 1.13(Arizona patch) ATS patch and rl

Am trying to sleep more as of today but with little luck
