Unsupported - Cherrier FCV Plusieurs Hybrid

Additions:
- Hybrid setup for the FCV
- 2 electric motors - normal and VERY powerful
- CVT for the FCV
- Support for all transmission types (except Dummy and Electric Motor)
- 4 configs with the hybrid setup
- Tons of fun!

How to enable electric motor only mode:
Turn off your engine. That's it. Due to some otherworldly thing, the motor always moves the wheels even when the petrol engine is off, or the ignition state is in "Accesories Only" or "Off". Best results are if you disable your engine while still being in "On", then the DRLs, speedo and stuff will still be on.

This is a bit of an experimental mod more than anything, I (still) know nothing about Lua and that's basically required for stuff like this to work the way you'd expect it to IRL. And yes, I know that the electric motor throttles forward even in neutral and reverse. And no, I don't know how to fix it. Sorry.

Still, you can have a lot of fun with this! And the only cost of extra power is a bunch of extra weight and an electric motor in the rear

Additional note after playtesting the car for a bit longer: the vehicle has a big tendency to understeer despite being technically AWD, so be careful when taking turns.

Proof that it's both ICE and EV

All the slots this mod adds parts to - AKA all the ones you need to think about when tuning the car.

Cool idea but the CVT doesn't seem to work with diesel setup & blows the motor, and now the mod doesn't work at all. Please fix vro

  This mod isn’t supported, but its contents are in the Megapak mod now unchanged. Will check this issue out and fix it if it’s not client-side :)

I liked the mod well, I wanted to ask if it is possible to install a hybrid on other cars?

  Wellllll it’d take a lot of jbeaming the motors into the cars. But in theory it could be possible if one had the will and time to implement it. (I have neither :P)

Awesome, great potential! This is by far the only hybrid mod that I will use, because of it being the only I know using the DCT gearbox.
Only complaint : the lack of reverse in electric only (and possibly a shutoff in N and P)
Looking forward to updates!

  The gearbox working for both power sources simultaneously is a bit too tough for me to comprehend :P
  
  But I'm glad that you like the mod!

This mod takes a step forward towards bringing a proper hybrid powertrain to cherrier. One thing I would like to see is to not be restricted to using CVT gearboxes with the hybrid system. I would like to use my 9G auto to be more like a mercedes EQ boost system.

  I suppose I could make hybrid motors that are compatible with automatics and manuals too.

The mod works fine with the engine on, but as soon as i turned off the engine, the electric motor didn't power at all (it didn't move). I tried different trims and even tried customizing the powertrain, all to no avail. Will you fix this issue?

  That’s strange. Maybe it’s due to a conflicting mod or something left in the cache? On my end the motor pushes forward no matter the ignition state.
  Oh, and make sure your parking brake isn’t activated while using the electric powertrain.
