# ai\_licia now integrates with American Truck Simulator

Nicolas JellabMar 19, 2026

We’re excited to introduce the **American Truck Simulator integration for ai\_licia**, allowing your AI companion to react live to your driving!

This new integration connects ai\_licia directly to ATS telemetry, allowing her to respond to real gameplay events as they happen. ai\_licia is also keeping track of key data points about your truck and your driving in addition to her usual job of distracting your chat.

# What the ATS integration does

With the ATS integration enabled, ai\_licia becomes aware of your driving session and reacts dynamically to important game events.

She can currently react to:

- Job started
- Job delivered
- Refueling
- Low fuel warnings
- Critical fuel situations
- Possible crash impacts

This transforms ai\_licia into an active co-driver that reacts to your journey. Imagine bringing a friend in the cabin of your truck with you, sounds fun right?

# How to activate the ATS integration

Setup takes only a few minutes. Make sure you have downloaded the ai\_licia Desktop App first.

### Step 1 — Install the telemetry plugin

Install [**scs-telemetry.dll**](https://github.com/RenCloud/scs-sdk-plugin) into:

```
Documents/American Truck Simulator/plugins/
```

### Step 2 — Restart ATS

Restart the game so the plugin loads.

### Step 3 — Connect ai\_licia

Inside the ai\_licia App:

**Integrations → Games → American Truck Simulator**

Click **Connect ai\_licia**

### Step 4 — Start driving

Load into your profile or start driving so telemetry data begins flowing.

# Quick troubleshooting

If ai\_licia shows **"waiting for game data"**, try:

- Checking the DLL is in the correct plugins folder
- Restarting ATS after installing the DLL
- Making sure you're loaded into your profile
- Disconnecting and reconnecting after the game is fully open

Most issues happen when the game hasn't fully initialized telemetry yet.

# Push immersion further with ATS keybind actions

If you want to take immersion even further, you can combine the integration with the ATS & ETS keybind actions bundle:

[https://www.getailicia.com/bundles/ats-ets-keybinds](/content/bundles/ats-ets-keybinds/index.html)

This bundle allows ai\_licia to trigger truck functions through keybind actions, making her feel like an actual in-cab assistant rather than just a commentator.

Examples include:

- Turning lights on during storms
- Activating wipers when needed
- Managing cruise control
- Starting the engine
- Controlling hazard lights
- Managing the parking brake

This enables roleplay scenarios like:

**AI co-driver**
ai\_licia helps manage truck systems while you focus on the road.

**AI dispatcher**
She reacts to deliveries and job progress.

**AI truck assistant**
She responds to commands and helps manage the vehicle.

When combined with telemetry reactions, this creates a much more believable AI co-host experience.

# Start your AI trucking experience

Install the integration, connect ai\_licia, and start your next delivery with a fully reactive AI co-host.

Your AI is no longer just watching.

She's riding shotgun.
