Faroe Islands and Iceland Development

[jasper]

Iceland is my most favorite part in Promods's map , it brings some challenges while driving

Lemme say this,

Iceland is possibly one of the most interesting parts of the Promods map. The winding roads, especially on the Eastern Half provide for one of the most interesting driving challenges along with changes to the road.

The people who made this part of the map had definitely done a first rate job!

Today, I had a delivery I couldn't complete on Iceland. My truck was a 6x4 taglift with only one powered axle. Trying to drive up a somewhat steep snow/ice covered hill and couldn't do it. Had to cancel the delivery.

This was AWESOME!!! Love these challenges. I've since changed the chassis to 8x4A with four wheels getting power.

Well, you apparently used an automatic transmission. Iceland requires manual/sequential. And some horses under the hood.

And you, apparently are wrong. Without asking questions, you made some glaring, incorrect assumptions.
Vehicle specs:
Make: Volvo Globetrotter XL
Engine: 750 HP
Transmission: Sequential
Chassis: 8x4A (two powered axles) (previously, 6x4, one powered axle)

I've tested all roads with 510PS DAF and manual transmission with 24t cargo without any issues. Some hills were hard to climb but it was able to go everywhere.

There are maybe two or three places where you have to use manual. I drive ohaha's Volvo with 750 (or 730?)HP and I was using automatic gearbox when discovering 99,5% of Iceland 4-axis, 2 powered.

I managed all hills with automatic transmission - but you need to be REALLY REALLY careful with the gas pedal - sometimes I dorve only at 3 km/h

Ya gotta understand; I wasn't moving at all. The rear wheels were spinning, but there was no traction on the ice. And, it was a steep hill just after a sharp turn, so I had no forward momentum.
