I get that but for an Italian, living in the area, seeing "Suzzara" and not seeing other main cities is wrong

It seems to be a main city for truck drivers, so the city should stay.

Amalfi coast is absolutely stunning, if there is space it would be a challenging adventure navigating through the beautiful villages and narrow hilly roads - which is the big downside on the contrary because it will be extremely complex and time consuming to build.

What I'd also love is the Amalfi coast, that would be very awesome. There only is Naples/Napoli nearby so I'd guess you have a bit of space just south of it... or not?
Trucks are not allowed on SS163 (the main road of Amalfi coast), due to very small lanes (driving a car, in some points you cannot go through if another car come from the other way). As you can see on https://www.google.it/maps/@40.6725762, ... 312!8i6656 only small lorries are allowed up to 12 t, only at night and only in one direction (from Positano to Vietri).

Hi guys,
finally i've reinstalled the game, and i was able to discover the new Italy add-on: i like it, they did a good job, but there's room for improvements, especially when you drive on your mod, which has a big quality stuff.
Some personal remarks:
1) the A1 Milano-Bologna route: in real life is almost straight, without any turns for many kilometers (in fact you see first turns after Cattolica, south of Riccione, on the A14 Bologna-Taranto, when you exit the Emilia-Romagna region). The SCS version is a bit off, since it has some turns which shouldn't be there. Probably they don't use Google Maps as reference. The M95 version was MUCH, MUCH better (kudos to him).

2) A1-A14 node: if you want to go in the A14 (Taranto direction) in real life you don't need to exit the highway, just take the junction on the right, and then go through that (you will run in the famous "Bologna-Borgo Panigale -home of Ducati" section).
I mean, no one uses the junction SCS did (the Casalecchio di Reno one, except you have to go in Bologna) because you take the first section, much more fast.

3) the A4 Torino-Venezia, in real life, is a big italian higway, 3 lanes for each sides, and most of it hasn't any turns at all. Ingame is only 2 lanes, it has many turns and, most important thing, doesn't have the milano-torino route.

Just my personal observations about this beautiful add-on, as an Italian i appreciated so much the M95 work (i was i big fan of his work, they did a marvellous work), so i hope my country he will receive some love from Promods team! :)

Cya all, happy trucking to all!

I explained three pages ago why this cannot be done.
GRA1 will not be needed in game after GRA2 has been completed.

SCS likes to curve all straight roads to reduce sightlines and therefore save performance. We'll try to find a good compromise. ;)

Just as they curve motorways to avoid overspeeding IRL.
