    Something I've noticed is that the starters don't quite reach the speed they're supposed to with this mod even at regular operating temperature. Because of this, some other car mods just up and refuse to start, and the sound is a little pitched down from usual. Other than that, it's a really good mod

    No, the starter is active up until the maximum starter AV is reached. This is the same in the vanilla game, except that that has a safe guard that simply forces the engine on "if we happen to crank barely long enough".
    That means the engine will only start because a timer ran out, not because the engine is actually powered on by the starter torque and velocity. Mod engines will only fail start if their starter is configured incorrectly.
    The starter pitch is a change introduced by the mod, it is interpolated linearly from 0 to the maximum starter av - this won't be reached until the engine is actually on. The starter sound will be at normal speed when the engine has just started.

    My bad, update is in the first post.

    Follow the install guide that's also on the front page. Nothing else is required.

    Hello! I would really like to see the option of starting with pressing the brake pedal, or with pressing the clutch (On modern cars, I understand that it probably won't be possible to track the age of the car, only if you use the car's INFO file, but as an option). I personally tried to implement this system, but alas, I did not have enough knowledge, since you are developing a mod Better Starter, then I believe that this function should be
