Viewpoints: American Truck Simulator
Viewpoints are locations where the driver can trigger an in-game “cutscene” that showcases the nearest point of interest to the player. They are identified by a green, 3D film-camera icon and marked with a on the map. There are a total of 123 viewpoints in American Truck Simulator.
Summary
When approaching and stopping at a viewpoint, the player must turn off their vehicle. The player then presses 'ENTER' in order to activate the viewpoint. When the cutscene is playing, the player can press 'ESCAPE' or watch the cutscene. The player can play the cutscene again. Since update 1.46, viewpoints are available to watch anytime through the gallery after activating them.
