1.57 Update: Dynamic Cargo Loading & Unloading

[COSMIN]

We have some exciting news for our European truckers! The dynamic loading and unloading feature is coming to Euro Truck Simulator 2 for the very first time with the upcoming 1.57 update. Let's take a closer look at what's in store for you!

We first introduced this feature for American Truck Simulator, and now we're excited to bring it to ETS2 as well. It will debut at selected custom and prefab depots in the upcoming Nordic Horizons DLC, and will also be added to all suitable prefab depots across the base map and map DLCs, plus one custom depot in Greece - so everyone can experience it!

For now, this feature will be available for logger trailers. Drivers using an ownable logger trailer, delivering Logs, Large Tubes, or Iron Pipes, will be able to experience loading and unloading their cargo with the help of a material handler equipped with various attachments or a crawler excavator. Once you arrive at the designated area and position your trailer correctly, the loading process will begin automatically with the cargo you're hauling.

Once loading is complete, your GPS will automatically update with your destination. When you arrive at the depot, simply select the "Where do you need it?" option and head to the unloading point, where your trailer will be emptied.

Across prefab depots in the base map and in currently released map expansions, you'll be able to experience this feature at several sawmills, construction sites, material stores, steelworks factories, and more. For custom-made depots, it will be available at a number of timber harvest depots in the upcoming Nordic Horizons DLC, as well as at one custom shipyard depot in Athens, Greece. We plan to expand this feature in future updates.

We hope you will enjoy this new feature in ETS2 once it is released in the 1.57 update. Until then, stay tuned for more updates from this map expansion by following us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Bluesky, and YouTube, or by signing up for our newsletter. We will see you on the road!
