    No. Currently I'm just using my wireless mouse and my laptop's keyboard. That's about it.

    With what?

    CPU: A terrible AMD E1-6015 APU with Radeon R2 graphics 1.40 GHz. I seriously hate it.
    RAM: 4.00 GB (3.45 GB usable)
    GPU: Not sure, but probably the Radeon R2
    OS: Windows 10

    Let me stress this again, I didn't have the freezing issue until February. When I first got the game, the issue was nonexistent.

    I've checked what happened in February, and there was only a hotfix with minor changes:
    https://blog.beamng.com/0-11-0-5-released/

    I'd point you toward hardware issue instead. Those specs are well below the minimum requirements.
    If you are having freezes, I'd check the temperatures first. That CPU may be boiling hard if there's not enough cooling, causing thermal throttling.

    If that's the case, why is BeamNG the only game where I have this problem? And why did it just start randomly doing this back in February? If it was my hardware, I'd be experiencing this with all of my other games.

    And like I've been saying, for as long as I had the game, since October of 2015, I never had this problem at all until February, so that I think exonerates my hardware, because if it was, I would've had the problem then. I did notice that this issue came along as soon as the ingame repository did, so I believe it very well might be the reason why the freezing is happening, and I hope there will be an option to turn it off in the future.

    Not necessarily, every game uses your hardware in different ways. And this game is pretty different from the rest on that side.
    There could be so many things being causing this and troubleshooting that won't be as immediate or obvious as you may imagine.
    If you want/can, I'd even suggesting formatting your PC and starting with a fresh copy of Windows installed.

    If you set these options, then ingame repo is actually pretty much turned off, if you haven't tested, changing these options might be worth a shot:
