    Well I wasn't referring to the spiking, but it would be neat to kiss that goodbye too. I was talking about how cars get stuck together when they crash, like getting wrapped around a light pole and just sticking on to it.

    Another thing to add, maybe an update to the crash physics on the 2nd gen Pessima, Moonhawk, Barstow, Roamer, D-Series, and Legran (even though it's been like a year, same for the pessima update wise :p), the crash physics for all of them are garbage, and Beam needs to work on the crash physics already, because the regular driving physics are more realistic than basically any other car game out there, and currently Beam isn't doing shit about the crash physics.

    beamng devs should add a box that you can check before getting in a map called "breakable environement" (poles, crates...)
    --- Post updated ---
    I won't say that they don't give a (...), but they are more into graphics and mechanic now.

    might as well call it the "supercomputer mode"

    i didn't said buildings, only small things like rocks, poles, crates but yeah it's not potato friendly, but no supercomputer is needed.

    Well, it would require a supercomputer, because every single movable object would have to be JBeamed, and JBeam is the reason BeamNG requires a good PC. If you added that many JBeam objects, it would be super laggy without a supercomputer.

    While a city with fully jbeamed objects would fry your computer, some smaller maps could run it just fine. Take that one train yard, for example. It is able to have a dynamic enviroment just fine.

    And maybe some rocks for crawling and stuff. Also, if it’s possible, make bushes bend or tip when you drive through them, that would be cool. It would be cool if fences fell down, too, but that might be to performance-intensive.

    isn't it also that every object uses only one core? (though this might be false, heard something like that in the past)

    YES, but you know if poles could also break...

    Gavril needs a LeGran competitor an I know what car would fit the spot like a glove
    AMC Eagle

    This could fit in the lore perfectly AND make a fun car to bash around in
    Could have derby configs
    Regular configs
    Offroad configs
    Race configs
    And maybe, MAYBE a hacked-up version with the D-Series Prerunner chassis stuck under it
    And even better, you can have RWD or 4WD, instead of FWD or AWD with the LeGran
    But one downside is they would have to change the design on the LeGran for this thing to fit into the 'lore', unless during the time of the LeGran and the Eagle, Gavril and Bruckell were both owned by some bigger brand above them (or Gavril saved Bruckell from bankruptcy and stole the design for the car)

    From where I see it, we could get a new, cool car, and we could get so much lore in the Beamng universe. Seem like a good deal to me

    I think we have two LeGran rivals, the I series and the pessima.

    But the Eagle is 4WD/RWD (LeGran is 4WD/FWD) and has 4 bodystyles (4-door sedan, 2-door sedan, wagon, and hatchback), and is older than the LeGran. It also would possibly create a new brand, since the Eagle doesn’t seem like something Gavril would make, and then we could also get an AMC Javelin-esque vehicle

    United Motor Corporation or something else patriotic sounding. An Eagle counterpart could be called the Condor, just because it is also a bird and because it sounds sick. Other models could be the Hustler (Rambler) or the Toreador (Matador).
