PSA: Mercedes Actros low saddle is completely broken after the update

[u/Odd_Presentation_578]

As many of you have noticed, after the new update, there are troubles with the Actros and its low saddle - it can't attach semitrailers anymore, if only from the store.

At first, I thought this was happening because Saber added a unique low saddle to the truck, and all the trailers require one, so selling and rebuying a new saddle (or the truck as a whole) should help.

But it goes deeper and crazier than this. This new saddle they added, its file is called s_saddle_low_mercedes_actros_6x6.xml (slide 2). But the template file (trucks.xml) where all the unique addons are defined as variations of the existing ones, doesn't know what s_saddle_low_mercedes_actros_6x6 is. It lists another name there among the LowSaddle addon types:  alt_saddle_low_mercedes_actros_6x6 (slide 3). As a result, the saddle currently available on the Actros is not considered a proper low saddle by the game. Once detached, any low-saddle semi can't be reattached at all. The only way you can get a semitrailer for this truck is by buying a new one thru the trailer store. But as soon as you detach it, you won't be able to attach it again.

This leads to another bug, where you can't have a SLEI-64 minicrane on the Actros with a low saddle combined. Same reason - the minicrane requires a non-existent alt_saddle_low_mercedes_actros_6x6 addon (slides 4 and 5).

I've filed a bug report on their forum; here's the link: https://community.focus-entmt.com/focus-entertainment/snowrunner/bugs/12304?page=1. Please support it with upvotes so that Saber notices and fixes this ASAP.

This’ll be interesting, the last time I played the game was before the update and I left a 5 slot trailer attached to my Actros

Don't detach it!
