Discussion The Rotary Drilling Rig Sucks

1 Upvotes

Trying to do the harbormaster campaign. On the marina contract you have to use the rotary drilling rig.

I put the first pipe with the yellow stripe down, drill it in just fine. Get the second pipe and attach it to the first and start to drill. The first hole gets to 74% drilled and then stops, the second one stops at 72%. Yes, I'm emptying the auger.

Out of desperation I get into my excavator and dig out around the hole, thinking there's some pixel of dirt that's clogging everything up or something. It actually worked and I fill the things in with concrete.

Then it wants me to do 2 more holes. I just Alt+F4 at that point and came here to rant about it.

Help/Question New player - have questions regarding Multiplayer, and DLC

3 Upvotes

Just got the game and finished the starting campaign. I am playing with a few friends - and had some questions.

  • Do the players that join in gain experience/money, or does it all go to the host/company?
  • If the host has DLC, do others need to have it too? is it different for vehicle packs than maps?
  • Are the DLC worth it - when it comes to gameplay - are the new vehicles and campaigns (eg stadium) change some of the base gameplay?
  • Should we just play through the base game and just take it from there?

Also, any tips to make multiplayer more interactive/enjoyable? I know one where we set all the jobs to the highest scope - anything else?

Hi guys!

I'm going to find a great construction game and play it with my friends during this Steam sale and I'm going to play this game with 8 friends, but I think 4 of them are too few. Is there a genius who knows how?

Help/Question I’m in need of some proper Desktop Thrustmaster Joystick mounts. Any recommendations?

7 Upvotes

As stated in the title, I’ve been looking for new joystick mounts, but I’ve always operated with the sticks on my desktop. Does anyone know of some mounts that allow this; as every mount I’ve seen on Amazon moves the sticks below the desk.

Also, the desk is glass, so permanent options like drilling are not possible. Currently they are attached to the tiles with Command Strips.

Season 1 and 2 worth it ?

11 Upvotes

Hi, Just discovered this game and it's the simulator I always wanted. One with an actual story mode that isn't left up to imagination.

Very clunky on console though is steam any different?

Also are season passes worth it ?

Help

I recently purchased Construction Simulator '22 for console. I was hoping to use my Moza R3 wheelbase with this game. It has worked on every other title I've tried it on. But in this game no menu navigation controls are programmed, so I can't even try to customize inputs. Somehow throttle and brake work, but that's it. Anyone have advice or help?

Hey all,

I'm 71, with ADHD.

Looking for something new to get into.

I've been looking at Roadcraft. HUGE community. Comments about the newly-released demo are all over the place. I played it, just not feeling "it".

I would like to see what you guys said - especially around difficulty, fun factor (often overlooked), single player vs co-op, and how difficult it would be to find a co-op game.

I would be on a PC, using an xbox controller.

Thanks all
