ETS2 DLC?
Well...
After! Balkans and Iberian peninsula's finished. Belorussia etc too, I think, tbh.
Who knows, might be more DLC's too, until hopefully someday, SCS visits northern Fennoscandia.

Will be interesting to see what Finland 2.40 brings to the table :)
I am sure Pori will have had some sort of rebuild, due to SCS not adding Vt8"E8" north.
There I hope that PM keept, but just moved the west part of SCS Pori more west. To get room to add Vt8 north.
Lahti, exit 17 of Vt4"E75" wonder if it will see a rebuild or not? Tbh, I prefer SCS's variant compared to the IRL 1.
Tampere... maybe some small interchange rebuilds?
Or maybe even adding Vt12 part thru Tampere? "This maybe in the future?"
Checking on google maps. Without Vt12 thru Tampere, the distance is 11km longer, but only 1 to 2 minutes slower. I checked at 16:52CET.
And Vt12 has intersections + interchanges. While the partial ring road only has interchanges, making it faster.

@Shiva. The 2.40 will have new things in it,but i am not going to say,what they are and where they are.
It would not be a surprise to you or anybody else,if i would say nothing or would it :?:

There are also areas,that will come to the Pm map,that i dont know nothing about yet.Only the map makers knows that. ;)
I always say like this:Good things comes to those who waits or something like that. :mrgreen:

I also would like to see many other new places in Finland,but Finland is a long country to drive.
So that is why there could be possibilities to add new places to the Pm map and i do know that not every place can fit the area of Finland in the Pm map,
because of the game scale.

I don't really know at all why the port of turku was removed from the game and the port of Naantali to replace it to this game? So stupid. Because port of Turku is much more bigger and used much more it is Bigger port? So I don't get it at all? Please put Port of Turku back in this game. Come on guy's. Naantali? REALLY???

Go complain to SCS and say that they are stupid, because it's their choice in the DLC, not us. :roll: :evil:

The port of Turku is a bigger port,then Naantali is,even i know that from my real life trips from Turku.
I also know,that Scs did made it like that,but Naantali is a good port for ships too.
So maybe you could think,that your truck did not have any kind of place inside the ferry and you had to go to Naantali,so that you could get your truck to Sweden.
That can be a stupid idea,but if it helps at all.
I think like that sometimes.
That could happen in the real life and it could bring realism to the game,well i think so anyway. ;)

Thing is. Both ports are used in real life.
Those that want Turku harbour ingame.
I have a tip for you.
Turun satamaan iso yhteisterminaali
Turun Sataman yhteisterminaalihanke etenee
"Joint terminal project in Port of Turku"
It is possible, if building this future harbour.
New Joint Terminal.....
Check the draft for the area.

If I had the skills, I would build it.
But I do not have the skills needed.

Nissantruck, Pori had less? of an rebuild than I tought there would be.
But it looks OK :)

A good reason for SCS to make Naantali was surely that adding Kapeelskär -- which has a ferry connection to Naantali instead of Turku -- was so much easier than rebuilding Stockholm.
That being said, I would love it if Promods enhanced the Turku-Naantali region. Ferry-hopping to Mariehamn would be really cool!


I'm reasonably happy with the realism in Southern Finland though, there might well be many more pressing issues across Finland and beyond the wider map.

It could perhaps return in the future, right now it wasn't really an option to expand this area with all the other work that had to be done
