random ideas

those ideas are mostly bit off from game topic, but are awesome:
1. if someone have 3d printer, it would be awesome if he would be able to print his car.
2. to easily show your friend your car, maybe option to print picture and car data (max speed, weight etc.)
3. (this actually is option to repair some problem with some languages :( ) option to change size of letters.
4. better quality changing options than one primitive slider.

Re: random ideas

1. Really hard, we have a 3d printer and the way it wants models done is very specific and hard to get right.
2. Yeah, we're already thinking of doing this, good idea :)
3. Instead we'll just fix the text/languages so everything fits properly in the final version :)
4. Quality is a mechanic we want to keep quite simple, the rest of the process of designing a car is already pretty complex, and will be even more-so once factories etc. come into it.

Re: random ideas

Maybe be able to make a PDF file, like a flyer you pick up in the showroom IRL, that can be used to show your friends what can be done in the game.

i mean quality bar in options, not in-game quality bar. I should describe it more precisely :oops:

There kinda aren't any more options to change. The Quality bar changes the viewport resolution, then you've got SSAO and FXAA which you can turn off to improve performance. There aren't really many other things to change with the way the game works.
