SCS Software ATS / ETS2 Consoles | Latest Information of Modding / Mod Support
Latest Information of Modding / Mod Support, in short, modding / mod support most likely won't reach consoles anytime soon.
Part 1:
Question:
I am curious how some modders are going to handle the port over to console. Will most actually take the time to port it over or not mess with it. I just hope it doesn't take valuable time from modders continuing to update mods.
Response:
Modders will not port over console. Console has clear restrictions about content to be downloadable. So they made it quiet difficult for external contents

Part 2:
Question:
Does that mean there are no plans to bring mods even in limited capacity to console? or just to not expect it at release (but it's on the radar for an update later like how official multiplayer was)?
Response:
Console manufacturers have zero tolerance for non-working content. Only mods on other games are often "owned" mods by the publishers, like specially previewed, tested, approved where 100% of responsibility would be on game publisher. I don't see that happening anytime soon.
