I have a challenge! On a full-width vehicle (not ATV, motorcycle, nor the like) in Trail Island, go south at spawn point then east up the rock, on which the vehicle is located on the map just below, then instead of going the seemingly more accessible path just west of the pink line

, go east of it, and not just a bit east on the trail from a 'T' intersection climbing across the hill to another 'T', but keep going east to the ledge of the sea, just west of the lavender line (of the map). There's a section I can't imagine a full-width vehicle making it across, as seen in

as it pushes the vehicle away and right after the trail angle go down toward the sea. The following, with the truck on the side,

is the best I've done.

I'm hoping other people try and let me know of their attempt/success.

You don't "need" to delete the setup executable after installing, but you probably should to save space.

Changing time of day is supported only by Caelum and SkyX sky types.

is there a way to get the lights to show on the ground when they are turned on?

short answer no but Zentro talked about upgrading the game engine from ogre 2 to ogre 13 that would allow that to happen.

Unfortunately no, lights don't cast correctly (or at all) as RoR currently uses per-vertex lighting and PSSM shadows also prevent light casting. But yes, eventually™ RoR's rendering engine will be upgraded to OGRE 13 which supports per-pixel lighting.

nice, ill be really excited to do some proper night driving when its upgraded!
