I am working on simulating the unique shifting behaviour of the ZF 9-speed transmission. If you don't already know, an explanation of the behaviour I'm attempting to simulate can be found at the 5:20 mark of this video . Can I program the shiftEfficiency values for gears 4-5 and 7-8 to 0, while leaving the rest at 1, or increase the shift time for a specific gear?
shiftEfficiency will just reduce the power output on the all gears. You will need to write your own controller to be able to do something similar. You should look at what the updateGFX function do in manualGearbox.lua and automaticGearbox.lua
Hm, making the shift efficiency take a table rather than a constant is no problem, I'll look into adding that. As for the shift times... that's more complicated I'm afraid. Is just the efficiency ok for you?
Sorry to butt in, but could you also make throttle cut into a table as well? Certain transmissions (particularly the Gavril 6-speed) have huge rev surging problems when shifting 4-5 and 5-6 because they lockup in 4th but a throttle cut makes them shift weirdly below lockup.
It is, hence the rev surging. Try out the Gavril 6-speed with a locking converter yourself. If you could define it by gear, 1-4 could have no cut, acting like normal on the 4 speed, but cut in 4-5 and 5-6, solving the problem with the 6-speed.
this this this, diamondback i know you said no further plans on torque converters, but please Like you can do a throttle cut for those gears, but then when going from like 1st to 2nd where the tc is unlocked anyway, it just cuts the throttle for no reason..
