Early Experimental Preview of Career Concept

I mostly use Quick Travel if I want to put a car back to its place, find the perfect location for a screenshot, or just laziness on my part. But other than that, I sometimes mark the location on the map so that I can drive 5 km to my destination.

 

On the topic of AI, it's pretty dialed in for traffic. This footage is over the course of a few long evenings and there was only a single really goofy moment caused by AI while they attacked me on a hill. And sometimes they'll try to destroy each other. Most crashes (not all included) were because I was driving aggressively. Then some hesitancies and negligence from AI drivers which I see often on the roads in real life.

 

Actually there is a trick to save your config if you really want to. Go to %userdata_folder%\0.32\settings\cloud\saves\Profile 1\autosave1\career\vehicles and open the .json file in this folder. Then, create a copy of some existing .pc config for the same car (can do it from scratch but copying can save you from making syntax mistakes), and copy everything inside config{} in .json file into your .pc copy. Should work, if it doesn't then you probably copied extra curly braces or didn't copy some. The only thing that didn't carry over last time I did this was the car's color for some reason, but otherwise you get the same car.

So yeah, a bit difficult but you can at least save your creation when 0.33 is released and everything is wiped again.

 

I find the mission road markers very intrusive and inmersion killing. Now they are even bolder. Is there anything planned for those of us who would prefer a cleaner looking, less arcadey gameplay? For example using beam GPS as an avalaible vehicle part where you can follow a route as you would do in real life?

 

I like it, but there could be an option for the older less bold style, or to remove them altogether. Also, the GPS accessory looks kinda dated.

 

And, there is no model for a vent mounted GPS, even though some vehicles like the BX-Series have a vent mount (it just clips through the dashboard)

 

Probably best to have a ‘one model fits all’ to reduce extra work and file sizes.
Making the GPS audible would be neat. Maybe something to pop up in the mods someday as there’s currently a pace notes mod many have talked about.

 

It's really just BeamNavigator with a different mount if we are talking about the minimum, but would be really cool if we can get an alterative GPS like a phone (B-Node lol) shaped object to serve as a navigation.

 

Will the bus to transport passengers be implemented in career mode?

 

hear me out, aftermarket car head units anyone?

 

I have an idea, hear me out... Repossession driver. Being hired by a car owner (ie a bank that hasn't been paid loan payments), and using a tow truck to quickly retrieve the vehicle and escape to a designated lot.

Edit: I think this might already be planned. Either way, it would be neat.

 

we need a stinger style tow truck bed for the d-series in my opinion, Not many repos are done with flat beds because well they aren't quick.

 

I was watching this and I wanted to do this in BeamNG career mode.

Can't wait to cause motorists mayhem >: ) PS: we need an emoji that matches with >: )

 

Yes, you can. You just need Willpower, torque, and CTRL.

In all seriousness (like that happens on the forums), I think simplified vehicles would be good to have as an option for lower-end PCs.

 

Wait, in-house beggars exist?
