    I noticed this. It's definitely WAY too much for the 1976-1978 models, in power and maybe even in cubic inches, but for the 1973-1975 model, it could work for '73-'74. I'm talking about the 448 Sport versions... the Special shouldn't realistically exist in its current form (factory supercharged).

    Some comparable 1973-1974 factory vehicles and their power figures:

    1974 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am SD455: 290 bhp, 395 lb-ft
    1973 Buick Century Gran Sport 455 Stage 1: 270 bhp, 390 lb-ft
    1974 Buick Century Gran Sport 455 Stage 1: 270 bhp, 370 lb-ft
    1974 Pontiac Firebird Formula 455: 250 bhp, 380 lb-ft
    1973 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 454: 245 hp, 375 lb-ft
    1974 Chevrolet Chevelle Laguna S-3 454: 235 bhp, 360 lb-ft
    1974 Oldsmobile Cutlass 4-4-2 Rocket 455: 230 bhp, 370 lb-ft

    And for 1975-1976 the power is way down:

    1975 Chevrolet Monte Carlo Landau 454: 215 bhp, 350 lb-ft
    1976 Plymouth Gran Fury 4-Door Sedan 440: 205 bhp, 320 lb-ft
    1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 455: 200 bhp, 330 lb-ft
    1975 Oldsmobile Cutlass 455: 190 bhp, 350 lb-ft


    The 1969-1971 Barstow 423 is also arguably a bit underpowered with only 266 horsepower and 393 lb-ft of torque... some figures for big block engines of that era (SAE net):

    1971 Chrysler 426 Hemi: 350 bhp, 390 lb-ft
    1971 Chrysler 440 Six-Pack: 330 bhp, 410 lb-ft
    1971 Pontiac 455 H.O: 305 bhp, 410 lb-ft
    1971 Chrysler 440 Magnum: 305 bhp, 400 lb-ft

    SAE gross:

    1969 Ford Boss 429: 375 bhp (~310 net)
    1968 Ford 428 Cobra Jet: 335 bhp (~280 net)
    1969 Chevrolet L71 427: 435 bhp (~360 net)

    Then you have the Bluebucks, which are overpowered! A whopping 381 horsepower in a 1962-1963 "RoadSport" or police car? You're dreaming!

    Hello!
    It's been a long time since I encountered this weird issue,but now it is happening again.
    When I have motion blur,I don't have this problem.But,when the motion blur is on,the steering wheel on some cars looks very weird
    (I am not saying that it is showing no texture)
    This is just a minor bug,but sometimes it's annoying

    it seems to me that cherrier vivace and hiroshi sunburst have too short transmissions. We need to make them at least a little more authentic. In the charrier vivace with a 1.2 110L motor, the gears are normal, but the 1.6 160 is too short

    Bug found by @SineMatic
    Loose parts of vehicle won't show splash particles when colliding with water unless the rest of the vehicle is already in water. Also if you rip the engine off the car but it still works, and put it in the water, it won't hydrolock until the rest of the car is in water.
    It appears that the game engine function obj:inWater() is broken.
    Edit: Apparently the logic is that: if the main part of the vehicle or any part connected to it directly or not has touched water or came within a certain distance of it after the last reset, it will work correctly, otherwise it won't register whether a node that is not indirectly connected to the vehicle is under water or not, so it won't check for density change or any other things related to water, which breaks everything

    There is a majour issue with borderless mode. my setup is: Main monitor in windows is 2560x1440. the screen i run beamng on is 3440x1440. I can run fullscreen beam with the correct resolution 3440x1440 but if i try borderless it maxes out at 2560x1440 which happens to be my main monitors resolution The funny thing is i did try a very old version of beam and it worked just fine but aparently over the updates it broke/got removed i would love to be able to try and run borderless mode on my second screen at the correct resolution again

    in world editor when there was that AI Editor and i used it on my map and then on next update it's gone and now i think what i did to my map those AI Editor dots stay in there, but i have no clue how to delete coz the tool is missing. The tool was awesome sorry i complained about it.

    AI Traffic cars tend to drive straight to walls and do stupid shit. they don't even stay on the 'decal road' in one area where i messed with that ai editor.
    Other areas farther away they be themselves :D

    Any help with the problem?

    Very well done update, but there is something that is still not fixed. Since the 0.28 update, you need to hold the Start Engine button to be able to start the car. But since the Hotfix 0.28.1 is out, the Start Engine button broke. By that I mean you don't need to long press the button, you can just 'click' it for 1 to 1,5 seconds to start the engine. I think that is not on purpose.

    Thanks for fixing the chrome rollbar with 0.28.2 on the Dseries, much appreciated:



    What about theses double lines? Are they meant to be this way? Still present as of 0.28.2:


    Dreid C70-2 in 19/18x11/12 Front and Rear have some good amount of the weeble-wobbles:

    There's definitely something wrong with interior sound balance now. I appreciate that gearbox is less dependent on cabin filter. But there's something off, you said you tweaked the aero, but i hear A LOT more surface and sequential (straight_01) feels too high frequency after 4th gear. Im definitely not imagining this. At 0.7 cabin filter and 200+ kmh, rolling noize fights engine sound. Or there was sneaky engine filter tweak. Which im not aware about. If possible can the filter tweaks be expanded a bit? Please.
    Also gearbox frequency progression could be really reduced, or started from lower freq., pitch change is not helping at all
    ------
    Upd: Yes, either surface was boosted or engine toned down. But this is just not right. At higher speeds wind should overcome rolling sound, not the other way around.
    ------
    Upd2: uploaded an example vid, cabin filter at 0.7. Engine is loud on it's own, but surface rolling equals it, which should happen much much later. I'd say it should be at least half of what it is at those speeds

    please make working emergency lights when the ignition is off at 0.28.3 or 0.29 because in reality they work when the ignition is off
