Experimental Vehicle Global Strength, Weight, Size and Other Values Edit (WORKS FOR MODS!) 7.9.2

This is one of the more important updates as of recently, including some very important changes.

• Thanks to some changes in the game update 0.26, I managed to implement some stuff that greatly improves the stability of the main portion of the mod! Scaling the weight, stiffness, damping, deformation and strength is way more stable now! This works especially well on the new simplified traffic cars, which you can get to 0.01x original weight!. Unfortunately it's still not possible to...

This is a small update made in 2 hours that focuses on some of the things people have suggested since the last update.

• Added mileage and wear option to the Engine Damage slots, affects not only the engine but the whole car. The odometer value should be treated as the distance travelled without any major repairs done to the engine. THIS IS HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL, MIGHT NOT WORK ON SOME MODS AND MIGHT BREAK IN FUTURE GAME UPDATES!
  
• Added single wheel...

This rather small update brings the mod up to date with BeamNG 0.25. Changelog:

• Added wheel hub swaps with adjustable wheel position on any axis (like portal hubs, similar to Automation exports).
• Tweaked engine sound editor slider ranges.
• Added new sliders to experimental exhaust tuning which control backfire more precisely than the old ones.
• Added carbon ceramic brake swaps to all cars. They are available in the brake pads slot, you can choose whether it keeps your...

You can teleport a car with the press of a key now! It took me like half an hour to make lol. You need to install the Weird Vehicle Controls under a sub-slot of the mod's license plate, then set up a key binding for the teleport button. If you go to Tuning then, you will find sliders that adjust the teleportation distance.

Note that they are relative to the map rotation, not the direction you spawn the car in. You can think of it like geographical coordinates, except...

I added a customizable flywheel and torque converter. Each of them has normal and experimental settings, the latter are not recommended to equip as they can break the car instantly.

Normal settings for torque converter:

• Diameter
• Stiffness
• Stall torque ratio
  
• Coupling AV ratio
  
• Lockup clutch torque
  
• Inertia
• Lockup RPM
• Lockup gear

Experimental settings for torque converter:

• Hard-code torque value
• K factor smoothing (can be overwritten by 4x4...

For this update I tried something different, and I'm not sure if it went really well. I decided to mess with some LUA, and add options to change the car's weight and size in real time. To use them you have to assign some key bindings that you can find at the bottom of the list like with my gun mod.


In order to use them, you need to equip a new part under the license plate slot:


They work by increasing/decreasing the car's size and weight...

I've noticed that turbocharger swaps were confusing, you could never tell how much boost you will get with each turbo, and it was especially confusing with modern ones that heavily rely on ECU. So I made everything more clear.

When selecting a turbocharger, it will now show the wastegate PSI in front of its name:


Cherrier turbos are now at the bottom of the list, as they are electronically controlled and make a variable amount of boost depending on the chosen boost...

Fixed Bolide stage 2 twin turbo swap not adding any turbo, only an intercooler lol. It now adds a powerful 250hp turbo as it should.

• Increased upper limit of all wastegate settings for all custom turbos in the mod
• Added tiny 3-lug fake dually wheels usable on smaller cars without visual clipping

Fixed not being able to use fake dually wheels on trailers
