Air refrigerated engines/Same-side Engines

General Chat Developer Questions

Hi, i’m here to ask/propose/discuss, if Air-refrigerated will be/might be on game.
I searched for it and i didn’t found, so here I am
Because, we know, Volkswagen Beetle, was a 4 Cylinder Boxer Air-refrigerated, it is a car that sold a lot around the world, and, i think that, the game is about a car company, so, for a begining campain I think the air-refrigerated engine would be good!^^ It is Fun, and not only Volkswagen used, but Porsche used air-refrigerated engines until early’s 80 I think… And they were very good engines.

Other thing I want to ask is, the engines with the Admission and Exhaust in the same side, General motors used this on their 6-Inline and 4-inline engines, Here in Brazil we had a ‘‘muscle car’’ (At least we call him Muscle) named Opala, that it has a very powerful 6-inline engine, the same engine from Impala,Camaro and Nova. It is a cheap engine created in early’s 60,that sold a lot and it was very lasting. Here in Brazil sold 1 million of these cars with 4 and 6 cylinders inline (Both with Admission and Exhaust on same side) engines. It is a very dynamic engine, it was used for light Trucks,cars, normal sedans,coupes and SS versions.’

You’re english is just fine :slight_smile: At least I could understand it.
Good idea you have there! Maybe this can be introduced in the early years, like the first 10 years maybe.

Oh, Thanks^^ It’s good to know that…
So, I Thought of something like that, first 10 years, to create an old and cheap engine it would be very nice… Let’s wait for it.

In the early period this would be a viable option for sure. While I’m not certain we’ll be able to implement air-cooled engines for Automation 1.0, this option definitely is important enough to consider for any expansion/DLC. Especially if we at some point should explore earlier years. :slight_smile:

YES! it might be done ^^
Thanks to the fast reply, very nice. So, lets wait and see if it is good for a DLC or something, I just wanted to know if its viable or not, and what you think about it… Nice
So, now that I have no questions, I will go back to the game.
