And on top of all this, Tire may not be limited to rubber today. Also tires has different frames inside rubber shell, such as steel and various different alloys.
Of course, only the contact surface matters most... but if we are speaking tire improvements generally...
Can it be given slightly better power-weight ratio to obtain similar speeds to RB4 Time Attack Spec / XR Timeattack ? As this is Time Attack machine, I assume, it is slightly slower.
That kind of argument is pretty much invalid. Sounds like all vehicles should stick whatever transmission LFS offers now just because you race? What is the "sry" for? What you are apologizing? Perhaps for your own comment yes.
---------------------------------------------
But yeah, back on topic. If we are looking from Scawen's perspective about this thread. And about what LFS Editor can offer... and looking real life vehicles as today, it is quite understandable about not taking this improvement suggestion as a high priority.
There can be so many different engines, transmissions and chassis layouts that it simply requires vastly to improve generally speaking, little bit everything and beyond. Furthermore, we are not have seen yet the announced things, which contains definitely a various things to modify with LFS Editor as well. ( Assuming, that those options are available as well. )
What I think most of this suggestion, is simply about fulfilling people's creativeness. As in history has shown, people tend to try and create what inmost craziest concepts, unique designs, "lightbulb moments" or even just plain blueprint ideas, regardless of it's practical use or not. LFS Editor as being a software, simply helps people to craft virtually basically whatever they want to. For example, I tried to make a monocycle back then and some other various things. Unfortunately I encountered some... "limits" and ultimately noticed some issues between realism and virtualism... and on top of that, my skill level reached it's limit, as well as my time.
Okay, first of all, thank you for making me amused and laughing. However, I am not laughing to people as YOU, but these posts and discussions.
Secondly, I have waited over 16 years now, and I am still waiting. If I happen to die before the waiting time is over, so be it. In the meantime, I can do something else.
3rd. Quoting has always been used with both meaning, simply as quoting and/or replying. I can see why the change would be necessary, but not really a must.
I am not saying your argument is invalid, because that may be really true. But man... how many times we have read this explanation? Are all little brothers/sisters so mean to bigger ones that they must always be a "party pooper" and ruin everything in a day, like a neighbor's cat dropping all the items from shelves?
