I liked the old grass that was in some places on Fern Bay in S1. People complained that it was too hard to get out of, but I think grass should be more "rutty;" wheels should really dig in to it. ATM it's impossible to roll (flip) a car just by sliding sideways over the grass.

Quote from z3r0c00l :Can't stand Krispy Kreme, I like them when they're deep fried infront of you, dumped in sugar and handed over. Fantastic!

I take it you've never been to a krispy kreme at 5 AM.

oh god my pancreas... :vomit:

Quote from modenaf1 :... the whole point. Not many would use it.

And my main point is Scawen would be unwise to waste a month (give or take a week) on getting it just right if it's such a clique thing--and a feature that would be nothing but senseless cooties in the eyes of some (as it is in my very own garage). I can't speak for Scawen, but I can use my imagination...

Nevertheless, I'm all for removing the auto-shift function.

Slushboxes were made for handicapped people. Discuss amongst yourselves.
"No! Soandso has found a great use for them!" you will opine. Yet I shall say, Q.E.D., they are handicapped. Handicapped people need no such further handicapping to play LFS.

I don't drive any of the fore-wheel or four wheel driven cars. Coincidence? :magnify:

+1 I don't like having to constantly re-edit setups to keep them on top. Alphabetically would be fine as they wouldn't move around, but being able to drag them would be ideal...

That's not LFS--I couldn't break the tail loose!

I drove it off the screen... does that mean I win?

Problem is you can change your gear ratios to be as close as you'd like... and I think putting a realistic slushbox in the game would take a lot of hard work for something that would be so greatly looked down upon. I'm sure the more realistic it was made, the more you would try to avoid it; the more you would curse at it. No one would ever use it unless the car only came in that variety and that is unrealistic.

Anyway, synchro simulation would need like a... FFB gear lever, yeah?

Who the heck would take a slushbox to the track?

It's a fickle thing. Maybe tire temps should have something to do with it? I've seen F1 cars lay down a grip of rubber (no pun intended) with an undetectable amount of wheelspin, and no smoke whatsoever--from a standing start. On the other hand, I've never seen an F1 car leave a trail of rubber by understeering.

It already does...? Anyway, you'd really rather Eric spent his time on that? I can't imagine that new configs out of nowhere with practically no details are really useful suggestions. I'm sure it's not as easy as it may seem...

Quote from 96 GTS :That's actually a triple apex on FE Gold, and one of the best corners in LFS

It's even better in reverse

Then so is the long flat out run after the railroad straight... these make FE gold reverse my favourite config in LFS.

Quote from Vain :the gearbox becomes the loudest part of the car

Even helical gears? Even so, I'm sure it varies wildly from car to car.

Yeah, I know you knew what I meant.

I remember Bill Nye the Science Guy talking about that when I was a youngin', but dictionary.com threw me off...

Quote from dictionary.com :Operated by means of centrifugal force.



Maybe it's just become a term for the phenomenon?
