[Implemented] License for HEAVY VEHICLES

[Marty_Deslions]

Nowadays there is a difference in TC between normal vehicles and "heavy vehicles". There are also some rules that apply for players driving heavy vehicles, but not normal vehicles. (https://www.city-driving.co.uk/rules/#Heavy)
There are currently 4 types of licenses that are valid for 1 year after purchase and succesfully completing a test. (cop, tow, med/res, race). You will need to purchase a license again and do the test again, if you want to have the license when it has expired. There is also a taxi license, but you don't need to complete any test for that. It's also only valid for 1 year.

I think it would be appropriate if there also was a license for driving heavy vehicles. This license should also be temporary, like 1 year. This heavy vehicle license should also have a test, since there are also different rules for driving these vehicles.

In Europe, if you want to drive a bus or truck professionally, you'll need to have whats called "code 95". This is also a kind of license that needs to be renewed every 5 years.

I've posted a similar thread some time ago, but for busses only: https://forum.city-driving.co.uk/showthr...?tid=34335

About the test, I don't think the questions need to be too crazy. Just give the player abit of awareness on the type of vehicle they are driving and the rules that apply.

Here are some questions that could be used, as an example:







Question 1: Are you allowed to do things like burnouts or donuts in a heavy vehicle?

A: Yes, as long as there are no cops around.
B: Yes, as long as there aren't other players around.
C: No, you have to behave professionally at all times.





Question 2: You are not sure whether a certain vehicle is considered a "heavy vehicle". How can you check?

A: You can't. Just use common sense.
B: You can check the modlist at TC World.
C: If a vehicles weighs more than 5000kg, it's considered a heavy vehicle.





Question 3: A cop pulls you over. What are your options?

A: I cannot run from him. If I do so, I'll get spectated automaticly.
B: I can try to escape, just like non-heavy vehicles.
C: I can try to escape, but I am not allowed to use any contact.
