Descriptions:
This mod must be installed at a higher priority over other sound or AI mods.

DEFINITIONS
– Cargo
– Cargo and trailer combinations reworked.
– Inspired by LAFAYET47’s Ownable Cargo Market Rework mod. Consider mine the ‘lite’ version of his.
– Cargo not requiring a cold-temperature climate will no longer use refrigerated trailers.
# Some exposed cargo transported by Flatbed trailers can now be transported via Curtainsider trailers.
– Vehicles
– All AI cars, trucks, and buses have realistic acceleration and top speed behavior.
– For every car, engine power and weights have been carefully researched. Each car will accelerate differently. The primary source of information is “automobile-catalog.com”. The secondary source of information is “car.info”.
– Top speed for every car is based on either factory tire specifications, a set speed limiter by the manufacturer, or a theoretical calculation from “automobile-catalog.com”.
– Top speed for every semi-truck varies according to certain configurations and conditions (Euro maximum 90 km/h).
– Trucks pulling some oversized loads will travel according to the displayed speed number on their trailers.
– Top speed for every bus is 100 km/h. Most of them, if not all, have been at the correct setting.
# In traffic, there is more variety of trailers (empty and loaded).
# The following Combination Vehicles (CV) are added…
# Doubles.
– Traffic density has been reworked.
– Special thanks to cipinho for letting me use part of his Real Traffic Density mod!
– World
– Traffic signals have longer and realistic timings.
– Green light interval is at least 20 seconds.
– Left-turn interval is 10 seconds.
– Amber (yellow) light interval is 3 seconds.
– 5-second delay interval between signals.
– Every signal (except on larger intersections) is disabled from 23:00 to 05:00.
SOUND
# AI
# Car, truck, and train sounds are emitted based on engine specifications.
# Example: If you see an AI Scania with a V8 badge, you’ll hear the actual V8 sound as it drives past.
# Horn sounds for both cars and trucks have changed.
# Police sirens are replaced with more realistic-sounding ones (Euro style, particularly German).
# For now, the sirens are German style until game code allows for multiple styles of sirens for certain countries.
# Environment
# Bad Spring/Summer/Fall Weather
# Rainfall is slightly louder, noticeable during heavy precipitation.
# Feel Thor’s power through your speakers with better thunder sounds!
# Bad Winter Weather
# When it is snowing, all you can hear is the sound of air (wind).
# Mover
# Sounds have been added to various movers such as flags, hot air balloons, and commercial airliners. Some sounds such as the helicopter have been improved.
