Comparison

At the moment i feel like the comparison tools for engines inside the game is quite weak.
It would be nice if i could choose two engines and hit the test button and see them rev up together, and then get two power and torque graphs i can compare. Just an idea.

Re: Comparison

I second this. Some way to overlay graphs and directly compare all aspects of different engines with each other would be most welcome in the finished game.

Re: Comparison

If you save your engine, you can just check them in the list and compare the most important stats right their.
Besides, Graphically and performance-wise it isn't really possible to do such thing good and fluently.
There's been some sort of question about this kind before, about opening 2 engines at the same time.

Re: Comparison

the list is not good enough just my opinion it should atleast explain what the abrevations mean if u mouse over or something, would be nice if they could work something in the future
Edit :
Maybe you could just overlay the two graphs ingame and not actually 'open' the engine.
