    On any car that I’ve ever been in, there is no off label. 0 is just 0. I am aware that they exist, just not as common as something sitting on 0 RPM when turned off.

    I think they’re talking about the ETK gauge cluster. The F30 gauges and the ETK gauges should both have an “off” position (when car is off, obviously) and a “ready” position (0 RPM, I assume needle is here when in acc or run). currently the needle only goes down to the “ready” position even when the ignition state is “off”.

    If you release the starter button before the engines starts, the engine starts early

    I would like that in the next fix 0.28.2 it would be possible to turn on the emergency lights when the ignition is turned off, and even when the ignition is completely turned off, the handbrake lights do not go out at ibishu covet and gavril grand marshal

    and also so that the chandelier burns at ambulances and police cars when the ignition is turned off

    I'm not certain if having emergency lighting stay powered after the vehicle power is off would be realistic, IRL it would kill a battery REAL fast. I wouldn't be surprised if they did stay on though, seems like it could be helpful if a police vehicle stopped running or was turned off for some reason at a scene.

    in any car, emergency lights will work when the ignition is turned off and the headlights and chandelier of special services cars. The only thing that a car can do to avoid battery discharge is to automatically turn off the lights in the cabin and the radio, emergency lights should always work even when the ignition is turned off and the chandeliers of special services cars

    Emergency lights should work even when the ignition is turned off, in order to eliminate battery discharge, the car can turn off the low beam after a few minutes (which in reality also burns when the ignition is turned off), it can turn off the lights in the cabin and turn off the turned-on radio after usually 40 minutes. But emergency lights should always work , as well as parking lights , but they are not in the game yet
    --- Post updated ---
    in reality, in all cars they turn on when the ignition is off, and they do not discharge the battery as much as the headlights
    and emergency lights can work from 15 to 30 hours until the battery is completely discharged, parking lights are about the same, but they are not yet in the game

    emergency lights should be lit even if the ignition is completely turned off in real life, they will work in every car when the ignition is completely turned off

    emergency lights should always work even when the ignition is switched off.

    moreover, in reality, the headlights are on (but then they turn off automatically) and why in modern cars in the game, for example, cherrier vivace, the stop signals do not light when the ignition is turned off, although they should, they only light up in old cars

    well, I hope to update this in 0.28.2, as well as the chandelier of special services cars should also work with the ignition off
    --- Post updated ---
    and in ibishu covet
    , the handbrake lamp does not go out when the ignition is turned off, as in moonhawk, and in hiroshi sunburst, the inscription beam navigetor lights up when the ignition is turned off.

    In older versions, Starter was slower so we can start vehicle realistically; But now, The starter starts only with a press of button; Please fix this bug, It makes the game really unrealistically.

    What? It’s the opposite. In 0.26, you only had to press the ignition button, but now, you have to hold it
