Ahh, that item was missing in the list... no, unfortunately no Diesels in Version 1.0 of Automation.

Re: Automation FAQ - Updated 12/4/12

Hi all, new here.
First post.

Are you going to do anything in a diesel? I would love to see them in the game.

If I am understaing this right, we can build a car from the ground up?
From a econo box to a family sedan?
From a sports car to a truck?
Every detail?

The demo is awesome, I am waiting for the v-8's.
I am been trying to replicate a large displacement diesel inline 4 on the demo, high compression and low redline.
Its fun tinkering around with the engine builder to see how much torque I can squeeze out of the engine.

Re: Automation FAQ - Updated 12/4/12

It will have V6s (eventually) so you can just make a KLZE or a RPV or Cologne V6 or any other V6 you can think of.. (within reason.... no 190 degree v-angle, triple cam, 12 valve per cylinder engines :P )

Loady, devs once said that rockethub preorderers are treated like those who preordered forced induction. So, yes to V16's

Re: Automation FAQ - Updated 12/4/12

Basically, imagine a bunch of hopeless car nerds who really know the shit they are doing (devs & testers)... well, apart from me, who knows basically nothing about cars, but games in general. :P I feel very lonely xD

Knowledgeable hobbyists I'd say we are. And for anything we don't yet know we've got a slightly terrifying stack of Automotive Engineering textbooks :mrgreen:
