    The engine sounds are bad because Im terrible at creating engine jbeams, once the torque curves are set right the sound will even out and I can make new sounds for this bus, I need help creating an engine currently

    Yes the engine jbeam is terrible so its using a hacked way of driving, currently defies physics, once I get a good engine jbeam i'll have proper drive physics

    How do you mean? I haven't looked at your code but you may be able to copy some t-serie stuff.

    Its using thrusters to propel itself forward, if you remove the thrusters it barely drives. I have to update the engine jbeam to match the semi then tweak the gear ratios and transmission to match a real bus, and also update the sounds for a TC-2000. problem is its not a simple copy paste like it was before because the current semi engine jbeam is different with alot of updates, there are different heat/oil settings with different controls, there is now differential code and lock code, I tried a copy and paste approach and it broke the game. Its in the works but I don't have time to do a full update to the engine right now but it'll be in the future, I decided to release the bus in this state since its still derivable and fairly fun! If anyone has time to tackle the problem and update the engine jbeam for me that would be epic! Someone made the transmission and engine for the last bus but maybe its time for me to learn how to do it :p

    Ah, I will look at it tomorrow if I'm not working on school or the tank I'm making.

    I haven't downloaded this mod but I think I will in the future but as a suggestion it possible to make a drag version because if you search up drag bus you should find a video of a school bus that looks like this tuned for drag races

    I immediately thought of this one:

    I would love to see something like this actually but seeing as he is figuring out the engine at the moment, we can only presume that it would take some time before he does something like that.

    If I can fix the engine stuff tomorrow, adding a ridiculously overpowered engine isn't that much work. And a underpowered engine is easy too :p (blown covet engine someone?

    Probably slow af. The Pigeon doesn't have a lot of HP, since it's a very small vehicle.

    It won't move in current state.
    But with some good gear ratios, it is going to move. But I will fix the main stuff first.
