A SimHub Dashboard for ETS2

A SimHub dashboard intended for Euro Truck Simulator 2 telemetry.

Installation Guide

  • Download and install the latest release of SimHub

  • Download the dash file

  • Import the file into SimHub

  • Adjust the dashboard variables

    • Crawler Gears: If your transmission uses crawler gears, put the number in here, otherwise put 0
    • ShowPSI: Want a brake PSI meter? Say true here. Want it off, say false.
    • ShowSteeringIndicator: true/false
    • ShowEffeciency: true/false, show your fuel consumption on the dash.
  • Enjoy.

Features

  • Lists your current freight and it's weight
  • Time until end-of-job
  • Time until next rest stop
  • Indicates if your truck and trailer have liftable and steerable axels
  • Indicates graphically if your liftable axels are lifted
  • Speed gauge knows about speed limit and adjusts coloration accordingly
  • Combined fuel and consumption gauges
  • Break PSI gauge
  • Steering angle indicator which I find useful while trying to reverse
  • Gear indicator, which can be configured to display crawler gears and multiple reverse gears correctly
  • Gauges dim to indicate electricity/engine are off
  • Indicators for Cruise set and speed, low and high beams, parking break, retarder, engine break, check engine light, speed limit, and turn signals
  • Truck make, model, and plate number, and plate numbers for attached trailers

Todo

  • Have RPM gauge adjust green, yellow, red lines automatically
    • Need to investigate GameRawData.TruckValues.ConstantsValues.MotorValues.EngineRpmMax and GameData.CarData.CarSettings_CurrentGearRedLineRPM and other data points
    • Possibly make it a dashboard variable, like crawler gears
  • Buy American Truck Simulator and see what needs to be changed to work there? Graphic and units changes, of course
  • Make configurable for Metric/English units?
  • Test with makes and models of trucks, currently tested:
    • Renault -T
    • Mercedes - New Actros
  • Odometer/Trip displays?

What's outright not working, impossible, or problematic

  • At this point, I'm still working on getting the fee/toll/ferry/train display to work
    • Currently it hides itself completely, all the time
    • It should show itself for a period of time after any of those events happen
    • Investigations continue as to why it does not
  • I'm not exactly happy with the way I'm indicating Liftable and Steerable axels on the truck/trailer graphics (LS text over wheels)
  • Nor that the liftable axels don't color code correctly
  • Does not appear to be possible to display hired driver income or bank payments
  • Consumption value is litrers/100Km average since trip reset
    • Would have liked to do an immediate consumption value instead/in addition, but ETS2 does not export that value that I could find
    • Does this change based on the make/model? Possibly, had to add an inertia() function with the New Actros to prevent it from having odd jitter
