Hi everyone! 🚚❄️

I’m sharing two images I created to better illustrate some ideas I submitted on Focus Together for SnowRunner. The goal of these mockups is to show visually how these improvements could work in the game, especially when it comes to vehicle rescue and recovery operations.

The suggestions are mainly focused on three points:

1. More anchor points on vehicles

Currently, when we need to use a crane to lift or recover a truck, we can usually connect the crane cable to only one anchor point at a time. Because of this, the vehicle often gets lifted unevenly, whether from the front, rear, or side.

My suggestion would be to allow multiple anchor points to be used simultaneously — for example, four points distributed around the vehicle — making it possible to lift, stabilize, or flip trucks back onto their wheels in a much more controlled and realistic way.

2. New lifting equipment and crane types

Another suggestion is to expand the variety of lifting equipment available in SnowRunner by adding new types and capacities of cranes.

It would be really interesting to see larger and more specialized equipment, perhaps even licensed cranes from manufacturers such as Palfinger or other companies in the industry.

3. Heavy-duty cranes capable of lifting trucks

I also suggested adding truly heavy-duty cranes capable of performing recovery operations involving even the largest and heaviest trucks in the game.

This could create a whole new layer of gameplay for vehicle recovery, where certain accidents would require specific equipment and suitable support trucks to recover heavy vehicles.

Some of these mechanics already exist in different forms in RoadCraft, so I think it would be very interesting to see similar concepts considered for future SnowRunner updates as well.

These suggestions were submitted through Focus Together, the official platform where the community can share ideas, vote on proposals, and interact with content related to games such as SnowRunner and RoadCraft.

So, if you would also like to see these improvements in SnowRunner, I’d really appreciate your support: please check out the link below and vote for the suggestion.

The more support and votes this idea receives from the community, the more visibility it may gain and the greater the chance that it could eventually be considered by the developers for future updates.

If you also feel that SnowRunner could benefit from more complete and realistic recovery operations, feel free to share your thoughts. I think this is an area of the game that still has a lot of potential to evolve.
