I have never seen that in my 2700 hours of play time. At least not fully turning off. Stalling, yes. If the vehicle lacks power it can stall if not in an appropriate gear. The game's automatic gearing does not downshift when appropriate and it up shifts slowly. Both can be compensated for by tapping the left bumper on a controller at the right time.

>>>I have never seen that in my 2700 hours of play time.

Wow, I'm surprised. I've got 1500 hours on, and as far as I recall it's been the case since the beginning. I just assumed it was part of the game.

I'll look into shooting some video and posting it.

Thank you. I would appreciate seeing that. Maybe you are encountering something I have not seen.

I had this happen with ANK MK38, its like you drive, there is a litte bit of lag, truck stops and start from zero gear 1, It happens with others to, but mainly with this truck for me.

But he said the engine actually turns off, causing anything winched to lose the winch. Have you ever seen that? Normally when vehicles stall in this game the engine never turns off. And the stalls are not random. they are related to lack of power in a given scenario.

I have that too, and I have a steering wheel with pedals for playing.

Someone wrote here somewhere that this happens when the game temporarily loses calibration with the game controller. Then it turns the motor off and on again.

That problem has been in the game forever.
I only encounter the issue when playing with a wheel and pedals, with a ps5 controller, it doesn't happen.
The only ''solution'' that i found is to assign the ESC button to any button on your wheel and press it like every five minutes. That way your truck will not stall out of nowhere.

>>>I have that too, and I have a steering wheel with pedals for playing.

Ahhh....that might explain it. I use a Logitech 920 wheel and pedals. Thanks folks. Mystery solved.

I agree with Vimpster, in 2083.9 hours, I've never had that. But I'm on Mouse / Keyboard.

As to the wheel, yes I think there are some Twitch streamers that showed that you can't use the actual 920 settings for it, and to use legacy.

(*BUT I'm just going off memory on that so I can't say for sure it's a thing*)

I've played over 2400 hours on a G920 (it's actually not a bad wheel for SR, WHEN it works properly with the shi%%y in game drivers) and have had this stalling since day one.
It is apparently to do with uPnP devices disconnecting and reconnecting and this makes the trucks stall. So on some wheels (and maybe on controller?) you may not see it but for others like the G920, you almost certainly will.
I've also had the other (much worse) stutter issue from day one where it will have massive framerate drops, sometimes 5-7 in a row with about a second apart. After ages searching I found this patcher which fixes both issues for me, but depending on your wheel, maybe not the occasional (and very brief) stalling: https://www.reddit.com/r/snowrunner/comments/pt78i8/i_fixed_the_stuttering_issues_where_your_throttle/
(BTW, this patch is also available for RoadCraft, search for "Roadcraft stutter patcher" or similar, I can't recall the URL now but it was written by the same guy who did the SR one)

I recently switched to a Thrustmaster T300RS and not only do the occasional stalls still happen, but the wheel randomly jerks around now and then, usually when you change vehicles or maps, or even just go from the local map back to your current truck. And when trying to plot a map it's awful, I pick up the controller to lay a map and for some reason I think the T300RS is interfering in the input and turning random amounts, mostly tiny but sometimes bigger, which then rotates the map taking your current point way off from where you wanted to plot it. It's so annoying that I'm thinking about going back to the G920 (which I still have) just for playing SR.

I've spent more hours in this game than any other and I still love it but the whole input and wheel situation and these sort of stutters they just never fix unless it's serious. I've given up counting how many bug fix requests I've submitted on these issues, so I've learnt to live with it.

Btw, for anyone that's new to SR, this page has a really good controller layout for the G920 (and lots of other wheels for many games): https://www.briankoponen.com/snowrunner-logitech-g29-g920-settings/
I use these settings and while there is still no FFB (Sabre's fault not the wheel's) these give me a good feel when I'm driving - YMMV.
