Hello!

Thanks for the post.

We have received similar feedback regarding the sand leaking for this vehicle, and we are currently investigating this feedback.

Thanks for your support.

Awesome to see a Dev comment and acknowledge this issue! Thank you Fsikens!

Yes it is almost Awesome .
It would be greater if someone had played the game before release and this obvious error had not occurred at all.

Also Awesome would be if something like this would have been fixed 1-2 days after release via hotfix.


Yeah Yeah soooooo Awesome

I must admit, yes it is a bit annoying, but it isn't gamebreaking. I am sure the stability of the game is more important than this.

baikal have stuck problem with down side center of chasis

All the dumps can leak, but this one leaks like crazy. It is way, way too sensitive to leaking compared to the others.

Yes, everyone loses sand in extreme situations.
But this truck has a flap at the back and this can be closed for driving in real life. And open it when you have to spread the sand at your destination.
In the game, the flap is always open and that's why the truck loses so much sand, even when simply accelerating.

In the meantime, it makes an excellent garbage truck.

While they are looking at it maybe they can shave down a couple of hit boxes on the thing like the central hinge joint and that massive shovel for a front bumper might be nice if it didn't manage to get itself irretrievably stuck every 30 secs or so.

Thank you Dev for looking into this. The Baikal leaks so much sand. every turn, bump, and even accelerating leaks sand everywhere. I only use this truck if a sand pit is in the area to lay my road otherwise it just dumps half my load before i can get to my destination.

Agreed completely. This truck fill up to beyond its own capacity and always leaks immediately - even on flat ground. It then further leaks large amounts of sand on pretty much any incline in any direction. I'm not even talking about climbing hills or trudging through mud. A paved road which runs up a slight hill will cause spillage.

It's not until the truck has lost what looks like a good 10% of its sand until it can be driven reliably. Either the truck needs to just carry less sand at maximum, or its capacity to hold on to its sand needs to be improved, because it's presently ridiculous.

It is *not* filled up beyond its capacity. It is leaking because the 'flap' doesn't close.

It doesn't just leak from the back, though. It also leaks over the sides, and even out the front on occasion. In fact, I'm almost positive that the flap is purely cosmetic, considering the "sand" in the back is not a physics object.

So do the Bowhead.
The flap have purpose and it works. Look at the bowhead (if you dont have look at video)
