Trailer coupling farther behind rear axle?
It would have been nice to have a chassis/trailer combination with the coupling farther behind the rear axle. When driving forward through turns, it'll pull the trailer farther out, more closely following the tractor's path. And when reversing, quicker response from the dolly/tandem on the trailer.

About this far: https://www.rothermel.de/fileadmin/bilder/fahrzeuge/baustofffahrzeuge/offener_pritschen_haengerzug.jpg
Very commin 6x2*4 taglift with swap-bodies: http://www.fahrzeugbilder.de/1024/man-tgs-26400-haengerzug-dhl-59968.jpg

It's quite difficult to back up the dolly trailers otherwise, but it seems like the advanced parking option is always greyed out?

Yes I very much agree! Wish it was this way. It seams like the Kraker NTM Tandem addon for Volvo FH16 2012 does this,

but I haven't been able to test it myself yet.

You can change your profiles config.cfg g_simple_parking_doubles to 0

uset g_simple_parking_doubles "0"

Finally got out my wheel again to complete the current WoT event, but I can't get the 1.30 mods to work. The replacement mod doesn't seem to replace anything, and no chassis are added.

I can't get the 1.31 set of mods to work either, from http://download-ets2.com/trucks-ets-2/volvo-trucks/14207-kraker-ntm-ekeri-addon-for-eugenes-volvo-fhampfh16-2012-v10-bycapital.html Seems like the game is always crashing when visiting the Volvo dealership :(

Bit of a bummer, but I might look into it again when I have more patience. The event only uses the new Krone trailers, so we're back on the tractor truck for a while.

Thanks for bringing it up though, it looks great and I hope I can get it to work eventually :104: :)
