About this mod
In the base game every place you can stop at (loading bays, fuel pumps, garages, dealers, rest areas, ferries) is marked with a big glowing icon floating above the road. This mod swaps them for realistic painted markings on the ground, in worn yellow paint that doesn't glow, so they blend into the world and can be read from either direction.
Dead-end barriers become yellow hatching with cones. The triggers themselves are unchanged, so everything works as before. It supports 1.60 and 1.61, was tested with ProMods 2.84, and has over 12,000 subscribers.
Features
- Separate markings for dispatch, loading, unloading and delivery
- Fuel, service, garage, dealer, rest, ferry, train, toll and border markings
- Special Transport and bus/car jobs supported
- Dead ends shown as yellow hatching with cones
- Works on the base map and ProMods

Notes for this mod
- The dead-end hatching is only paint, so you can drive through it. The author warns you may reach areas you couldn't before, or fall off the map, so don't cross it.
- Some places don't use a standard marker, so nothing changes there.
Known conflicts
- Use only one interaction-marker or icon replacement mod.
