    Hello,

    I noticed a bug where any dashboard lights other than the speedometer / tachometer become brighter when you are pressing the brakes. Works with High Beam dashboard light, as well as check engine or other warning / status lights on the dashboard.

    That shouldn't be possible - the brightness change you see on the car's exterior lights works by switching between two materials (lights_on and lights_on_intense). The dashboard lights don't have any second brighter material.

    As strange as it sounds, it does happen. I have also found that by using turn signals / hazard lights, it causes other dashboard lights such as high beams, warning, check engine, etc to become brighter while the lights are on. I have recorded a video of it.

    I am curious, has this been addressed in the next update?

    I have also noticed this bug. It is probably easy to fix but it is slightly annoying. Maybe if it was a really shoddy car then the lights would dim because of a small battery or something?

    As busy as development is, I hate to be a pain. But I really am wondering if this has been addressed.
