    There hasn't been an update since September 16th I believe. But as you may know, there is going to be a substantial update coming quite soon, so be patient.

    oh, thanks. Have been a little worried for a few days. i hope it comes soon because 5 damn months is a long time for a update. but it's undestandable because BeamNG is a young game and have no actuall history at all.

    We totally understand your frustration - we really want to release this update, but it is just not ready yet. There are only 4 of us ;) We are making lots of progress.

    May I ask what you guys are working on right now? Such as stabilization, optimization etc? The blog has been empty.

    (from what I understand) Physics will be 25% faster, major improvements in the tire models, (at least) one new vehicle, as well as racing modifications to certain cars. Im sure that there is a lot more but that is all that I am personally sure of

    Oh yes, I know that, but I was wondering what was keeping the update on hold. I have to admit it has taken a while, and so something must be going on, whether it is code changes, GUI integration, or final QC.

    Seeing as it is a race update, (dont take my word for it****) but i think that there may be multiplayer support (again, this is an uneducated guess) but I do know that they are completely reconfiguring the GUI, I'm sure that there will be a lot of code changes as well as a lot of other things. Seeing as there are 4 people doing this (and it isn't their full time job to do so) I'm impressed that they've done so much in a short amount of time. Not too long ago, this was just an idea. Now it is a strong alpha with a huge update coming up

    We really cannot give an ETA, sorry :(

    The main thing is that we are rebuilding the GUI completely using HTML5, so we have to restore all the debug functionality, fix up the vehicle selection menu, and a bunch of other stuff. It will all be worth it in the end :) And yes, there are a ton of improvements to vehicle handling and behavior, 25% faster physics, better collisions (less getting stuck and shaking), better friction code, better brake and parking brake code, realistic automatic transmission, the Pigeon, the new variants for the Bolide, new variants and parts for other cars, completely re-worked tires, better top speeds... we've made so many changes over the past 6 months that it's difficult to keep track of them all, but I think you guys will be happy with the update when it's complete.

    I think somewhere a few moths ago a dev (I think it was you maybe not) said something about making the hitches and stuff actually work in the race update. Should we be expecting them in this update, or not. I'm just wondering what you guys have planned.
