Announcing Automation & BeamNG.drive collaboration!

I did read some older FAQ where they mentioned that with team of 6 it would take way too much time, but I think there was mentioning about if there would be enough sales, then maybe, however from current FAQ I read this:

https://automation.gamepedia.com/Game_FAQ

Hopefully someone makes tutorial of how to place interior from Gavril to some car, that would perhaps be very useful.

 

Will universal wheels be planned?

 

Are they going to have universal wheels ?

 

Well, I guess some users from the BeamNG forum could find a new job now

 

Will the cars from Automation have engine thermal simulation?

 

Well, maybe it could be possible to model an interior yourself for your Automation cars.

 

Round shapes are hard to model, as well as HD modeling, I do just low poly things and not very complex of them

 

With some luck, Automation get on sale around 13th july. (at least it would make sense, so more would buy it and they make more money at the end of the day, wouldn't they)

 

They announced that there would be a sale starting July 13th, with discounts towards the other product available if you own BeamNG or Automation.

"Keep an eye out for a joint release from BeamNG.drive and Automation on July 13th. The cross promotional sale starts then!" - BeamNG devblog

 

sorry for getting to you late, I was at a junkyard today.

I made it look like that so it would kinda look like a Toyota van wagon.

thanks for the suggestion though! I wanted it to look like a mixture of a caravan, lumina, and van wagon.

 

Amazing! I remember purchasing both of these games around the same time and think that combining them would be insane/awesome

 

I really love the idea of Automation coming to BeamNG but my real concern is the converter being the more popular way to make mods. I’m worried that the quality mods our forum makes will decrease if used too much.

 

Not it in the initial release. IIRC you need a proper exhaust for thermals. We do have a sweet dynamic exhaust piping generator in the works, and once that's done we can do thermals too.

There will of course be brake fade in the initial release though.

 

How many features from BeamNG will the Automation cars have in regards of the drivetrain/engine simulation at first?

 

I'll have to check with one of the programmers for an exact list (I'm one of the artists), but most of the features are coming across, power, fuel consumption, turbos, sound, a bunch of gearbox parameters, limited slip diffs, locking diffs/transfer cases etc.

 

Oh boy, can't wait to export my 1200 hp kei car

 

Holy shit. Now I can drive my shitty communist cars that only go about 80 mph.

 

Will the cars be able to catch on fire?

 

Will there be heavy vehicles (semis, buses), tiny vehicles, more old vehicles, and flat-8/10/12 engines planned for Automation?
