Idea - I don’t know if it’s possible to do in Beam NG, but you could make it so that before starting the engine you have to ‘depress the break pedal’? It would just add to the realism.
I have quite a lot of experience with modelling and I love the C30 myself so if that's something you'd like to do I would be happy to build a model for you. + I love this mod, I'm a massive Volvo fanatic and cant wait to see it released!
are you saying a start stop system, or when starting the actual car? Generally beamng cars just spawn started and ready to go. im taking a break from the overlander for an unknown amount of time, id like to finish it in the future but havent had motivation to get back to it. I have a little bit, i got all the badging working, made some configs, and did the majority of the jbeam editing for it. I still need to get the trunk secured right, so it doesnt flop around once the attachment nodes break
The depress brake pedal refers to when you start a P3 Volvo the inner gauge would say "Depress the brake pedal to start" when the car's electronics are on but on the engine itself isn't. So not a stop start system, its a bit of an unneeded feature for a mod like this.
You'd probably need to extensively overwrite the vehicle starting system, which is pointless for one car. Regardless, a lot of people play in arcade mode, where the brakes are auto applied while still anyway, so it makes little difference and if anything is a bit annoying.
When starting the car, so it would already be started when you are spawned in (by default), but when switched off and then on again, a little 'depress brake pedal to start' sign would appear on the dashboard screen, i can't imagine it would be to hard to do as the shuttle bus mod makes you shift to park before allowing you to start the engine. I think it would be a nice feature to have but I understand if it would be too hard to do. Also, in regards to the stop and start system - you could integrate it so that there is a button next to the start one (which is actually functionable like NA2's buttons) and can be switched off for people who find it annoying. Also, I think some people would appreciate it being configurable in the vehicle config menu so that people that hate it can switch it off there & select the time it takes for it to trigger and stop the engine. Again, I completely understand if this is another feature which would take too long or is a waste of time. The car itself is enough to please basically anyone here so, thank you for this!
No, at least I dont think so, the vertex has something similar. I just mean like, if you do shut off your car anytime after spawning it in it will show that message
Wow the Volvo is looking really good. I'm very excited for it. Also is there any new progress with the Corolla?
That's related to holding the clutch in to start, not the brake. And it's effect is arguable, as even with clutch and gearbox assist off I don't need to hold my clutch pedal in to start manual cars.
