Car Performance Testing Feedback Thread

I love what's here so far, just wish there was a way to also modify your fixtures within each model - sometimes I just want a basic chassis that has the 'minimum' of what I desire - say, lights, doors, decal location/type, shape, etc etc to use as a basis for the car models...but with each individual model I want to be able to toy with things like the vents, grills, and other things that actually have an affect on the car's performance or other things that are clearly 'extra'. Having to create countless platforms just to move a grill around is a pain. Sure technically it may just be a revision number you change to denote those mods, but it's still an extra slot that clutters up the platform list.

So I guess either a way to consolidate in that list all revisions to a single entry with, say, a drop-down menu to select the specific revision you seek, would be nice, or add (certain) fixture options to the model creator.

That is a planned feature to be put into the model designer rather soon. There will be a way to change around your fixtures for each model using the fixtures of the original design as a template.

And, although it might be difficult to implement in the game, the same model designer, but for the interiors...

Sure, 8bs, if you give us the resources required to get that done, absolutely! I would estimate the cost for that would be around 100000 dollars if the main game is not supposed to be delayed as a consequence. Can I send you the bill?

hmm ... sorry, but at this point I spent my last $ 25 in this spectacular game Automation! : P ​​I understand, and I know that is not the purpose of Automation, but hey! who knows if in the future there will not be people interested in paying an "extra" to have this component in the game? I would! Since it was possible to quantify this "extra", and a safe number of people available to pay the "extra". Ok, maybe a bit utopian. One thing at it´s time. Cheers!
