    Are these changes available through updating now, or will they be deployed later on?

    I can only assume you already have spoken to many specialists and are yourselves very experienced in various feilds but theres a company called "wheels in motion" in the uk who are a Chassis dynamics, alignment and suspension specialist, to the lay man on the surface they may look like a tyre sales company but they are industry advisors to several car manufacturors. Tony who part owns the company is a wealth of industry knowlege and a genius with vehical allignment, should there ever be a question looming over how to make a vehical compliant, he would be a great source.

    of course im making no assumptions of Beamng's capabilaties, just hopefully providing a helpful source of information :)

    I think we've got it handled. The issue isn't so much knowing what's wrong but knowing how to fix it. And by fixing the gyroscopic mass problem, we fixed a whole lot of other problems that we thought were unrelated. Tire response and top speed are a lot better now, for example.

    Hello Gabester,

    I'm sorry to tell but since the update on a pure grid I have noticed that the Gavril D (default) will break nearly instantly the direction while starting a Donut

    None of the other default cars show that behavior from what I have seen

    Also (don't know if related) the Civetta start to slip sideays when reaching half of the RPM on 4 gear (178 wind speed) earlier gear if higher RPM, I can understand that behavior at the lower gear but not at the fourth.

    For the rest it's indeed better, thanks
