Ok I know dispatching can get confusing depending on what map your running etc. We try to keep it real here so we might name places in a dispatch that don't exist on the map your running. (SEE EXAMPLE BELOW)
Dispatchers Name: SCOTT ****Load: OFFICE FURNITURE***** ****Location of pickup: J&M FURNITURE***** City location of pickup: DALLAS, TX Time of pickup: 03-16-13 11:35 *****Location of Delivery: OFFICE MAX***** City Delivery: OKLAHOMA CITY Time of Delivery: 03-17-13 0800 Comments: Signature: SCOTT
I put the "*" by the things i am trying to make a point about. Some maps may have these names but the bulk will not. The beautiful part of the game is that you can post a screen shot of a dock or warehouse and say it's whatever. THE MAIN POINT I AM TRYING TO MAKE IS THAT YOU WILL BE KEEPING THE TRAILER YOU HAVE. This isn't normal drop and hook game play.
As far as flatbed dispatching goes that's a toughy. Right now we do not have a company flatbed trailer pack so we really do not know what cargoes you have and what you don't. You will most likely get dispatched for a load you don't have. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT. Haul whatever load you do have and then just post your log book with the mileage for the city's you were dispatched to.
Please feel free to post any questions in here that you might have.

Everyone pretty much run's a different map for the most part. Some use the cali map other's use the beer map of ACMU 4.5 or what ever. If we could get a general idea of what we are gonna do about a " Company Map " that would be great , however , the unfortunate thing about that is the fact that it's gonna take some time for even a good map modder to build. I say in the meantime you just find a load in what ever city you are dispatched from going to whatever city you are dispatched to. If your are lucky enough that someone know's the map you are using pretty well then most likely the will also know the load's that can be hauled and what city's they can be hauled from and to. Flatbed is kind of difficult but like trent said I just find a load going to the city I've been dispatched to and most the time since I use glenn's map and the tti trailer mod there is usually a flatbed load that I can haul. It may not be exactly what I was dispatched but none the less it work's for me. Just because you are dispatched to take deli item's to some place don't mean that's what you half to haul. If there are no companies with deli item's then haul frozen food or whatever is available. Just my take on the whole dispatching issue. Do what you want. If we could all run the same exact map with the same exact cargo's it would be a different story but that's not gonna happen.
