Hey guys sorry if i raise a few dumb questions here, just go of the feature page viewtopic.php?f=15&t=137, seams abit out dated. but got a lot of good info that made me even happier to have speend a few bucks on steam
and have been searching all over the forum for this, but havent been able to figure it out. has to do with the way bodies and engine configurations works, primarily with rear and mid engine setup. it boils down to this, what bodies are you thinking of in this configuration, just the reguler sports car designs (like is in the game rigth now) or will it include for ex:
a family freadly hauler like the VW t1 through 3 with a rear engine.
or /and include total fiction designs like a rear engine vagon or sedan (think chevy made one of these with a I6, not the safes but fun design)
and lastly i got in to automation late with steam and the v16 i read is something for early backers, and well it bieng my favorit engine of all time, ( that and the v12 merlin by rolls, but that is a bit ou of the scope of this game ) so my question is fairly simple, how much money do i have to pay to get the big engines then they are ready and then can i do it ?
sorry for the long post it is the first i have no idea if thise questings is to premature to ask, and realize it is hard to give estimats (i read the posts )
any how just a few thoughs, looking farward to the next update :3
Rear engines have not yet been added. There were quite a few rear engined sedans and wagons IRL, and there will be in Automation as well.
I think the plan is to convert alot of the front engined bodies into rear engined versions as well to give players more choice as well as bodies designed specifically for rear engines. A modder already made a Porsche 356, but since theres no rear engines yet it wasn’t released.
Not sure about how to get the V16’s at this point.
Thax a lot Drake, was thinking /hoping this is how it whould turn out and really happy to hear that , now the waiting starts and soon ill hava a mid engine brick or something stupid like that
do you by any chance know if they will add a way to make the current exhaust stick out right behind or in front of the rear wheel well ? whould love to give the car a side pipe
any how gotta get back to making cars just reset the game after 13 hours and 10 models God i love this game !!
I’m not sure about the whole exhaust thing. I’d also like the side exit exhausts, and also I’d like to see more options like mufflers that hang below the cars body as some bodies don’t really have much space for the exhausts.
And while I agree that having rear/mid engined variants of a lot of cars could be interesting, the current system limits us to one engine placement option per body.
The only way to create a car with a different engine placement is to have an identical body that is set as mid-engined or, when they will be added, rear engined.
Okay, I’ll try to understand what you mean. The V16s will come as a paid DLC for people who are not early backers. I can’t tell you a price, and it’s very possible that the devs have not even started to think about that. There is still a lot of game to be made.
