Update Speculation thread

speculation is forever alive in beamng, it's just dormant

 

its still my prediction and speculation that if we get tire thermals we're getting compleatly new tire physics
imagine getting something like its shown in the video

 

I am not too sure as i only had about 4 messages for 9 years lmao

 

I love this refence, have my last staff pick.

 

today's the day. thanks for everything, chuck

good luck in the future!

 

Offtopic, but remember that person on page 2646 that was complaining about cars feeling like jelly? I bet they were playing on the techdemo and that was their only interpretation of what the game is like.

 

there he is

 

What I would like to see in 0.29?
A map themed update. Not that it adds many or any new maps, but that we get an overhaul to the SkyCubeMap and other parameters so that nights look good and are fine to drive. A rework of vehicle lights, added lensflare and some bloom adjustments would probably be needed to top it off so we could have pleasant night driving.
Addition of working environment lights goes without saying...
See, that's something simple to wish for, so we could have 0.29 in two or three months.

Now, about the vehicle selector, i know its getting a bit out of hand organisation-wise. My D-series has over 200 configs lol
But that's far from being my main complaint with it, as I (and certainly most of y'all) can still find the desired vehicle.
What i wish would change, is it looking up the game files(and mods) everytime it's brought up, causing massive lag when you want to change vehicles. I mean, is that really needed?
It should list up all the vehicles and configs on boot and keep that in memory so when the player brings up the menu it quickly shows up all my options...
If I download new mods that adds vehicles and/or configs it should have a refresh button near the list.
Aside from filtering, organising or any other changes to it, a pre-loading of a static vehicle list would already make the experience with the vehicle selector UI a lot better. Specially for people with lots of mods. Keep in mind that it is the most seen and used menu UI...

In terms of organising it, i think that adding more layers would help and also look cool. Example:
Type of vehicle - - > Country/Region - - > Available Manufacturers - - > Vehicle model - - > Version/Trim

That way we would also look at the Manufacturers logos a lot more often too. Want a D-series? Choose Pick-ups - - > US/América - - > Gavril - - > D-series - - > Choose your version...

Honestly tho, i dont think that kind of change is coming anytime soon...

Oh, a Police themed update with revamped AI tactics and spawn logic would also be killa awesome

 

See ya, thanks for all the great content! I hope you keep hanging around the community, too!

 

For 0.29, they confirmed they are 101000% adding back Dry Rock Island, can't wait

 

you're welcome! only one and a half hours to go.

 

Thanks for the staff pick and godspeed.

 

About time to get into the forums and become a superstar poster!

Good luck with the future endeavors Chuck

 

Thank you!

 

NOOOO

 

It appears that your staff privileges were removed a little early lol

 

Nope, BeamNG is based in Germany which is UTC+1 so permissions got removed on-time
(was going to be in the morning but i made a joke about it in mod chat in the discord and Leeloo saw, it was a great laugh)

 

where did you see this?

 

No, thank you good sir for keeping the trolls at bay. You stepped up the the community's moderation to adequate levels and thwarted many troublemakers.
I appreciate your work, you deserve all the rest and time off imaginable and it could not have come soon enough. Your escapades in the Great Troll Wars of 2022 and Battle of Comic Sans Font will be forever remembered.

 

on one hand i dont beleave you and on the other hand where did you get the info ?
