    The engine has to go into its idle rpm for it to respond.

    I’ll have to try it out. Thanks for reiterating.

    Devs, I've confirmed this is indeed an issue. A bump-start will function as you'd expect if you simply switch the ignition to on and bump-start the vehicle, but if you try to start the vehicle using the starter but don't complete that start and then try to bump-start your vehicle, it will rev up but will never start, it will act exactly as if the ignition was off. The attached clips below show this. Pay attention to the throttle value in the bottom left area of the screen and the ignition state on the bottom right.

    Normal bump-start:

    Bump-start after failing to start with the normal electric starter:

    Really sure this featur overhaul e caused those tesla mods to break due to lack of backwards compatibility. Could this be fixed?

    Tesla mods are usually terrible anyway, I remember some of them breaking way before this update, others breaking vanilla cars too

    Hello

    What also would be awsome is to have the starter working when there is no fuel in the tank and also when the engine is damaged but not seized.

    there are flaws in the ignition system 1. if you turn off the ignition, only the beep and stop signals work, and then not on all cars the main problem is that the emergency lights do not work in reality, if they worked 2. when the ignition is off, the handbrake light is on and in modern cars it would burn and after a while it went out, but in the game it also burns on old machines, and if you turn off esc tsc, the light will also burn when the ignition is off, although it should not be on awd sport navigator does not go out when the ignition is turned off, the inscription beam navigator is on, and in some cars, when the ignition is off, the odometer does not go out if it is displayed on the screen.4. in general, in real life there are lock acc on start lock modes, the ignition is off, you can pull out the key and the lock will lock acc, the steering wheel will be unlocked and in some cars the time and date on the radio will light up the ignition is on and start the starter at the expense of the mode only equipment in fact in reality it is not there replaces the acc mode, unlocking the steering wheel in the game, it plays the power-up function in this mode, the electronics start working, but in reality, even with the ignition off, almost everything will work except the wipers and something else ideal if it were like this (the ignition is turned off, the emergency gang and headlights work, but the dashboard coloring off and modern cars, the screens do not light up the acc mode, even the usual non-animated car logos light up on the dashboard and the ignition is switched on for 2 seconds, all the lights come on except for the turn signal lights and the low beam with high beam (just test lamps for faults) and the starter starts the engine. if implemented the belt system in the game would have a belt sweetheart and at a speed of more than 20 km / h it would squeak until the player pressed the button to fasten the belt, but this is something else, I hope some will be fixed or added to 0.27.3

    and I also forgot to say that the interior lighting does not go out in cherrier vivace arsenic cars, the screen with the navigator does not go out in hirochi sunburst 2.0 sport awd, the inscription beam navigator simply lights up when the ignition is turned off in soliad wendower, nothing goes out and the esc tsc light does not go out yet if you turn off the electronic assistants and turn off the ignition and the handbrake light if it is in modern cars it goes out after a while (in reality) and in the old ones immediately when the ignition is turned off and in the game in the old cars it does not go out and the screen that displays information about fuel consumption transmission and so on in both cars does not go out hirochi (sunburst sbr4) and in ibishu pessima and in cars where the odometer is on the screen, the screen also does not go out about the bulbs, it's better to let everything go out and the handbrake bulb and the emergency lights should work with the ignition off and stop signals and gaborite lights if they are added to the game

    these are all the flaws that I found in the ignition system, I hope all this will be fixed in 0.27.3

    Please use punctuation, this was near impossible to read.
    And the ignition system is still very early on in it's production, it will get better in the future.
    All we can do is be patient.

    i just tried the sport config on this and it does indeed break when the esc activates when turning,
    if you also wanted a mod that has the shifting bug then this one has the issue

    One thing that I like about the update is that with the gavril 6.0 diesel is that you can only start it up when the gear is on n or p. Can this be applied to all vehicles?

    the tachometer needle on cars etc. when the ignition is turned off, it should go down to the off label and when the ignition is turned on, it should rise to the ready label, but this is a trifle.y

    and it is still impossible to turn on the emergency lights when the ignition is off, although not only they should work, but also headlights and stop signals
