I have new a new idea how about turning signals and dash indicators? Searched the forums before I created this thread. This could be a fun feature when in multiplayer (I know it might not be implemented at launch date and might be implemented at a later date.) If you and your friends wanna have like a realistic feeling of driving a car you could use Turning signals. Now on to dash indicators like check engine lights abs lights overheating lights etc. like when something is wrong with the motor the check engine light comes on. These are only ideas that I came up with their could be a thread just like this with same idea but I typed in Turning signals in the provided search function and nothing came up. Sorry for the long post and sorry If there a thread just like this I might not have searched hard enough. :Edit I knew I didn't search hard enough found a thread where gabester stated that there are Turning signals implemented in game already so that leaves us with dash indicators idea.
I don't know for dash indicators, but there are turning signals, they showed them in one of the livestreams.
Yes I apparently did search hard enough that why I edited the first post. Dash indicators could be a cool add another touch of realism to the already realistic awesome game.
You have a few great ideas, but I am not finding the dash indicators really good though. Think about it, if you are driving and a "ABS" light pops on, okay?, well what really good would that do? I mean you cannot like stop the car and fix it to remove the ABS indicator, it would only make it harder for the devs, that will take much time and effort to create something like that, Gabester would have to make quite a few changes to his vehicles "If" he would decide to add this feature. But its a good idea for the future, but you see my point right?
The abs light comes on when the abs is "antilocking", not when its broken. I think it would be really cool to have this, but there are more important things for them to do. But it get your point
We do plan to have a realistic electrics system. I'll make one texture map with all of the various light symbols (signal, ABS, check engine light, low tire pressure, etc.) that would show up on a car's dashboard, and it should be possible to have them turn on and off with the appropriate functions. Not yet, though (there are more pressing matters)
