So we have the option to change the Speedo from analog to digital. Pretty cool i guess, some people prefer digital, i prefer analog.


Clocks are the same way, some people (mostly older people) prefer analog, and most younger people (and some older people) prefer digital (in a car atleast).

It would be nice to have the option to change the clock inside the cars to be digital, anyone else think so?

Im sure it wouldnt be much work at all, and it would be somthing small, yet so big.

+1. Analouge clocks are too small imo, I have to use shift + Cntl to look at time atm

There is an option to replace FPS with time. Why should you monitor your FPS all the time is beyond me anyway, either it runs or doesn't and you can see it.

I'm racing without everything on the screen, Shift F ftw!

What for do you use shift+ctrl then?

ok, I'm not using shift F all the time but even when I don't use it, I'd like to see just time, not a line of text that contains year, month, day and time and all other useless data which ends in the middle of the screen

I'm just supporting this suggestion

Agreed, it would be nice to know what the current phase of the moon is while driving. LFS, the astronomers sim!

Buy a wristwatch.

When i hit ctrl and shift (when i have it to show FPS default), it only shows the time.


Anyways, this thread turned out really wired lol

basically all im suggesting is to have a digital clock in the space of the analog clock inside the cars. And then we could have an option to chose.

+1 It would also be nice to change the fps meter in some cars to digital too.

Yes, the thing that Blackout was talking about is that there is an option that replaces FPS by date information which shows date, month etc. Quite massive overall

wtf??

Sketchy, the turbo boost gauge in non-turbo cars show your FPS, if you didn't know. At least, I think that is where the "FPS gauge" is.

If Eric hasn't been eating mushrooms again, most likely we get rid off these with the new dashboards/cockpits.

Really? I always wondered wtf that was

I don't think only old people like analogue guages. I prefer it because digital doesn't give you a visual of how fast you're accelerating.

Same here, i was talking about analog clocks

errr... There is an option to change from digital to analogue clocks for the speedo and also to show time in place of FPS. i changed my clock to analogue and black with yellow stalks. This way i dont check my speed on the apex and mess up corners but i can still estimate what speed i am going in the pits.

me, I'd like to have the rev-counter in digital - or at least as an LCD or something. you know like these 80's GSi, Uno Turbo, Golf GTI... just joking.


just to clear things up:

a CLOCK is the thing that shows the time.
a SPEEDO is the thing that shows something close to your speed.

lol, dont i feel stupid...

I read the OP wrong

I didn't even know there were clocks in cars in LFS
