Update Speculation thread

There's really no point due to the fact passengers aren't an official feature.

 

By that logic, having interiors at all has no point: I meant that seatbelts should just be textured on the B/C pillars, not jbeamed.

 

Fair enough

 

How do you access that? Just curious.

 

wow that's actually made things much easier with making my little etk mod
hint: truckla

 

I ve noticed it too, but for next update i wish me better Brakes for some Cars, even the race Brakes are poor....

 

odd, I've had no problem with the brakes. Maybe try breaking earlier?

 

Problem solved, i missed that i was using standart brake pads

 

Bed liner coming for the next D-series update? Just saw this, and i´m fairly certain i don´t have a mod that adds the slot, since there is nothing there that can be selected anyway. But i haven´t checked with safe mode yet.
Picture for reference.

 

plus a wing and lip to the etk 800

 

dug around in the combustion engine lua (lua/vehicle/powertrain/combustionEngine.lua)
found various things relating to degredation of part condition over mileage accumulation, possibly career related

it increases friction, engine idle speed fluctuation and thermal output of worn down parts

 

I just hope for adjustable idle on all the older carburetted engines, all of them idle way to low, hence why there is no noticeable drop in rpm when shifting from neutral to a gear. Instead of 600-700 rpm which is borderline stalling they should idle at 900-1100 rpm which is era/period correct, im not sure about newer engines but the Burnside, Bluebuck, Moonhawk and the Barstow are all affected with this... incorrectness (wow that's actually a word)

 

I beg to differ. 1100 RPM is arguably too high for an idle and it would cause a vehicle with an automatic trans to potentially creep too fast without throttle application. For example, my 1956 Willys idles at just ~500 RPM fine with a Carter 2-bbl carb. My parents' 1973 Ford Gran Torino idles from ~600 to ~800 RPM (the range of RPM is due to the choppy idle caused by the big solid roller cam/lifters lol) with a built 460 topped by a Edelbrock 750 CFM 4-bbl.

 

it doesn't raise or lower overall idle rpm, all it does is change how choppy said idle is, like a nasty big cam or whatever

 

It creates a range of RPM for the idle though, rather than just a steady idle. So essentially it is constantly raising and lowering the idle RPM as the engine reacts to the increased lift and duration of the cam lobes.

 

So. Including this, I've noticed some other "preparations" for parts like ETK 800 spoilers and lips.... and most importantly, every vehicle has the ADITIONAL MODIFICATION file now. It is empty, but something will fill it. Any ideas?

 

they will either add more parts in the future, or its there for mods, and it doesn't disappear like it used to.

 

Jato, wings, jato + wings

oooh that would be intresting
--- Post updated ---
the empty parts thing must be a glitch, because now on the fr17 (which has had no updates since 0.20) has a left radiator and front sway bar slot that didn't exist before, and the only option is empty.
