    So I noticed that when you spawn traffic on a map like Italy, which is in Europe, cars can spawn with non-standard european plates. I mean that the license plates have not the longer standard european dimensions, but the smaller US-sized plates. Although there may be european plates that have these dimensions (for instance some vehicles where a long plate doesn't fit, but a smaller plate does), I think the majority of european cars have the standard long EU dimensions plates.

    Let me show you what I mean.

    These were the cars that were spawned when I added traffic:

    (not the white ETK at the bottom right, that's mine)




    Take the red Ibishu and blue ETK for instance. On the rear there is enough space to fit a normal sized european plate, but it still spawned with a US sized one.



    I understand the game uses existing configurations, which sometimes just comes with the US sized plates. But I think it would be more realistic if the type of license plate will adjust to the map where traffic is spawned (that is if it fits on the car, some cars just simply don't have space for a longer eu plate on the regular place). So if it's Italy or Germany, and traffic is spawned, the sort of license plate will automaticly be adjusted to EU plates, if it fits on the car. Just like the imprint if also automaticly Italian/German.


    Small suggestion, but details like this it adds to the realism.

    Nice mod, looks good. Although I personally think that some typical american cars like old muscle cars dont normally have a wider space at the back for a wide EU plate. But it still looks nice, also the amber turn signals. Would be nice to see something like this added to the vanilla game.
