Modelling wise, I would suggest turning the electric motor 90 degrees sideways, so the direction of rotation lines up with the gearbox. Also, does anyone know how to make an electric motor work with a manual gearbox? I've tried a few combinations, and it never works for me.
Motor→clutch→sequential Remember to uncheck options→gameplay→clutch assist before loading the vehicle
I've tried that, but for some reason the power doesn't want to go from the trans to the torsion reactor. the gear selector also isn't showing up in the UI. any ideas?
Did you define the gear ratios? What's inside your jbeam? You may refer to a sequenial transmission jbeam to find out what the problem is.
I can't help you much with getting the thing ingame because I don't know jbeam at all, but I have only one tip for you... Remove the gearbox, as it's not needed & it doesn't connect to the electric motor like that. The halfshafts should come out from "thing" at the front of the electric motor & hook up to the wheels; no gearbox needed
well its elekric so i will avoid it like any real one it basicaly kills the fun and the feel off any real car... i think you should shrink it and make a toy rc car out of it with a antenna on top then it would make sense just an opinion
it could be really funny a tiny electric city car a bit like the autolib who have been in Paris (they got sold )
the fun is relative exhaust sound gone intake sound gone individuality of sound gone engine caracteristics gone shifting gone clutch gone vaerty of engines gone modifikation abylity gone tuning parts gone handling gone (like a brick) fast refuiling gone high vmax gone long fast driving gone (due to overheating of the elektic engine internals wich arent possible to cool without way more mass and enrgy waste) user maintanance friendly gone enviorment friendly ? not in the slightest way with a waste date at aprox 5-7 jears (in praxis often les than 5) just a slight overvew
i don't like electrics in real life too, but in beamng it's always nice to see variety of cars with all the body/drivetrain/weight possibility so i really like this idea of an electric city car (i won't go in your electric inferiority debate )
Just a few things I’d like to point out as someone who likes electric vehicles- Take Teslas for an example. They have excellent safety, good handling (not “like a brick”) with a low center of gravity, a variety of battery packs and trims offering different performance, very environmentally friendly compared to gasoline powered vehicles (and also rated at roughly 130 MPGe if I recall correctly, and producing under half the emissions of a gas-powered equivalent according to the Union of Concerned Scientists), the list goes on and on. I’m no Neil DeGrasse Einstein, but I’ve done some research on electric cars.
