    I've tested three cars using the electricMotor powertrain device to find that all cause a fatal vehicle exception on spawning. Because there's no wiki page for the electricMotor, I have no idea what's changed in this update. The lua exceptions don't give me much idea what's causing the problem. There's an indication that the vehicleController is the issue. The error points to a line about ignition/engine stalling.

    I'd like to take this time to request an electricMotor section in the powertrain wiki.
