What this mod does
Realistic Coach Comfort, by Blue Ridge Mods (ChaosChaplain on Steam), fixes a common complaint about the Euro Truck Simulator 2 Coaches DLC: passengers complain about G-forces even when you drive normally. The mod raises the acceleration thresholds that trigger their reactions, so a calmly taken corner or an ordinary stop no longer lowers satisfaction.
What it changes
- More forgiving reactions in turns and less sensitivity to normal braking.
- The passenger comfort system stays active: rough driving still gets penalized.
- No changes to XP, economy, lateness, speeding, crashes or vehicle wear. The author stresses it is not a «no penalties» mod.
Version and warnings
It came out on November 13, 2026, the day after the Coaches DLC, and Steam lists that DLC as required. The author says it was tested with the DLC but does not state a game version. It weighs only 40 KB. Because it edits coach economy data, use it in single-player only and back up your profile first. If you would rather remove the penalties entirely, see Coaches – Happy Passengers; more mods in the ETS2 bus mods guide.
