I recently started thinking about making my own mods of the base cars in this game. I came across a thread that talked about how you edit the engine.jbeam files but it was posted four years ago, outdated, and the layout of the code has changed since. Does anyone have any tips for editing the files? (i'm pretty new to modding)
The code system of the engine hasn't changed a lot. The basic settings (the power curve) with the RPM and the torque is still there. The System around the engine has changed a lot since the update with the drive train. The "position" of the engine has changed, also. The Code belonging to the Engine doesn't have to be in the same folder like the vehicle. The engine is often in a folder called "common" in the main content folder. Reread the Wiki to find information about the last changes! It's describes the whole code system of BeamNG very well!
