    I needed a way to launch straight into a level with a specific vehicle.

    There is this old thread thas basically has the solution, but it wasn't working for me until I figured out the reason. Since that thread was the first useful page that comes up when I was searching for the it, I thought I'd share the quick fix. Unfortunately I cannot reply to that 4 year old thread.

    Solution
    If anyone has problem loading with -level parameter, add a forward slash (/) after the level name.
    Debugging revealed levelpath got concatenated with info.json, so the app was looking for "levels/gridmapinfo.json" file, which it obviously didn't find. Adding the slash fixed that.

    so instead of
    Code:
    ./BeamNG.drive.x64.exe -level gridmap -vehicle moonhawk
    
    do
    Code:
    ./BeamNG.drive.x64.exe -level gridmap/ -vehicle moonhawk
    
    On that note, is there a more comprehensive list of what parameters the application accepts?
    And can we pass vehicle variant with the -vehicle parameter, for examle the Special Pursuit Unit variant of the Ibishu? something like "-vehicle coupe/police" or "-vehicleskin police"?
