Route advisor (GPS) | Interface American Truck Simulator Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Another important element displayed while driving in the lower right corner is the Route Advisor. Its top displays important information such as current speed, gear, truck state, fuel level, bed icon that symbolizes fatigue, e-mail icon, day and hour and the company's bank account balance.

The option marked with an arrow shows the speed limit on current road. This option can be turned on or off in options.

The tab with a cursor icon ([F1]) by default) pauses the game and allows you to navigate through the road advisor using mouse. The first tab ([F5] by default) contains a map. Click twice its button ([F5] by default) to change the map's scale. If you have set a destination place or you are completing an order, the route is marked in red. Below you can find estimated information about arrival time and remaining distance.

The second tab ([F6] by default) presents information about current order (they are shown only if you decided to take an order). You see data about your cargo, place of destination and company being the cargo receiver, delivery date, estimated income (if everything goes right) and remaining time (including time for rest). At the very bottom you see when you have to stop to rest. Also, you can cancel the order here.

The third tab ([F7] by default) presents the truck and cargo damage level (the latter affects the income). The fourth tab ([F8] by default) is less important. It show email messages received from companies, employees and bank.
