wait, what about the limo configs?

 

I'm interested in modifying the JBeam to pull more steering lock out of the Regency
(suspension_F JBeam is shared between models as a Common)
The issue I'm running into is, the pitman and idler cant seem to manipulate the tierods beyond the standard position without deforming
As they rotate on a circular axis, their limitation of adjustment isn't rotation, but length.
If I extend both, and decrease their In/Out rate, I believe I could get over 50 degrees of lock

I also thought of whether the physical representation even affected anything, or if they merely mimicked the invisible hydro's

Is there a way to extend the tie rod and pitman arm, to get more length from them?
Alternatively, do you suppose it'd be possible to modify, lets say an ETK rack and pinion into the 88 chassis?

I've already had a peak behind the curtain, and I apologize if that is prohibited. lmk and I'll stop
Keep up the amazing work, I'm eager to see what else you have in store

 

So far I can get about 45 degrees, but the toe 'jumps a tooth' and permanantly disfigures the alignment after full lock

Everything I'm doing to Suspension_F Steering_Sport:
Upping the BeamDeform and BeamStrength with FLT_MAX
Adding zeroes to beamSpring and beamDamp,
Removed the idler and pitman (have since given it back)
Increasing $TrackWidth to 50mm
Increasing pitman Scale Z axis from '1' to '2'

Do you have any clues as to how I can improve the steering?

Im looking through the Barstow files in the CC Drift Steering for how a drift hydro is setup up

P.S. The Wiki detailing how JBeams work is a thing of beauty, godbless the BNG Dev Team

 

Progress seems dead

 

Remember he is in BeamNG Team. We must wait. I love this mod too, I hope one day we will got this mod.Even if progress seems dead

 

not to be a pain in the ass but when might this release?

 

how do you derby something that doesnt run

 

It is not ready yet read better

 

That's why it has the X, it's meant to be excluded from the post (yes, I know that this was probably a joke)

 

i feel like i am getting tortured waiting for the demo

 

I am not trying to bump, and I know that there is a huge remaster going on, I haven't been on the forums in a while but are you also going to add the improved headlights and taillights or just keep it the same?

 

and then we get the "ooh shiny thats neat i gotta add that also "

 

For the demo, the interior will be pretty much the same, right?

 

anyways why do derby cars have weird stuff like no rad or weird gearboxes, is it just to have something less to worry about?

 

most likely yeah
