    Dear BeamNG Forums

    It is with great sadness that I announce today, (April 9th, 2024) that I will no longer be able to participate in forum activities. Do not worry, I am fine, and it is not anyone's fault. I cannot use the forums any longer, and I am unsure if I will ever be able to again. So I hope you all have a great life and thank you for all the fun and laughs you gave me.

    Thanks for everything
    Musicman27/Isaac

    PS: This is not a joke :(

    PSS: I'd rather not get into why. Don't worry I didn't do anything illegal.

    PSSS: I am over the 16-year-old minimum.

    Ok, so the crap didn't hit the fan as hard as I thought it would. It's still in the air but I think I'll be fine. I may be less active on the forums though. Sorry about that guys...

    Since 'P.S.' stands for 'Postscript', you'd write 'P.P.S.' and 'P.P.P.S.', not 'PSS' and 'PSSS'.

    Also, don't commit suicide.

    Holy cow. They fixed the parts selector! Now I can add a chrome bullbar with ease! They also added new delivery mechanics that look like they will make career mode a lot longer lasting! Not to mention the other new UI and the paint gloss options! I cant wait to test it later! Thanks, Krallopian and crew!

    We're thrilled to introduce several new gameplay elements in our latest release and are eager to receive feedback to guide their future development! I'm particularly excited about the integration of the Milestones and Progress pages from the pause menu, which mark our initial steps toward comprehensive gameplay progression and tracking. Although currently filled with placeholder content and unbalanced objectives, these features lay the groundwork for functionality that will be consistent across the game.

    While the mission start and end screens have not been updated in this cycle and need significant improvements, we're actively planning these changes. Additionally, the Progress page offers a sneak peek at upcoming gameplay types! Let it be known though that there is the potential for further changes yet, such as merging ambulance and say... fire services activities into a unified "emergencies" skill, etc..

    We're excited to share these developments and look forward to your feedback!

    Don't forget shrubberies! There's enough to make the Knights of Ni proud.

    You guys almost got it right, the starter car doesn't show up for trade-in in the tutorial and the "Purchase and Apply" button in the paint booth does nothing.

    Hahah, glad it doesn't stand out too much then! ;)

    On a more serious note regarding for the changes; I rebuilt every sidewalk, driveway entrance, driveway, all of the grass and terrain, the fences, and pushed every house further back to allow more room for vehicles to be parked in the driveways. It was a massive undertaking without changing things significantly, if you were to compare them side by side you would see a tremendous difference between them! :) Previously, driving over the curbs and across the driveways and transitioning between the grass and the hard surfaces was catching and popping tires a lot, making it super frustrating, especially for career-mode gameplay. That should no longer be an issue. The new house was something I just recently added near the end and was built for the role-players among us, nice big driveway, token house/location etc!

    The "hold to buy" functionality is still WIP. There are some basic gameplay rules out there for this sort of stuff, and the UI team has been hard at work on a whole whack of different things, unfortunately this feature wasn't finished by release time along side everything else, but don't worry, it'll be improved and behave much more traditionally/in line with most games we're all familiar with!

    More on vehicle painting; The prices have been implemented as a first-pass, but do a decent job of representing real world rates. The missing piece of the puzzle is currently related to painting individual parts: How do we select them, how do we store them, how do we age them, and more. For now, you can paint the entire car, and there have been some major strides made regarding paint-type selections and customization, I hope it's enough to tide things over while we move forward with the underlying tech.

    sometimes the delivery mechanic doesn't work right, it overrides my balance instead of adding to it. if my total balance is negative, then i get rewarded with say, "-143" dollars instead of 143, but then on top of that it just rewrites my balance to be -143 total. so I can't really do deliveries rn
