    Obviously, this kind of content isn't going to be up and running soon. But for a vehicle simulation game that's highly focused on realism, this "may" be an ideal suggestion to jot down on the to-do list; Vehicle fluids.

    Gasoline, engine oil, radiator fluid, they're all those important fluids to keep the motor alive. BeamNG already has these fluids, of course.

    But what about a little bit more of fluids? Transfer case fluid, differential fluid, brake fluid, driveshaft fluid, power steering fluid, (and maybe a little bit of headlight fluid to keep the drying elbow grease on the bulb screws moist) you name it. They could play a part in the performance of various parts depending on the level and condition of the fluids.

    Speaking of windshield washer fluid, however, at this time would most likely be useless because wiper functions haven't been implemented yet and there isn't any fog to grow on the windshield, either. But this thread obviously isn't about dynamic weather effects.

    Thread is open for thoughts.

    So, for example if you hit the diff pumpkin on a rock fluid leaks out and affects how it works?

    And if power steering gets knocked out, FFB kicks in and screws you over? Sounds awesome
