Comment modifier la vitesse d'un véhicule

Hello,
How do you change the speed of a vehicle ?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,

If by that you mean modifying a vehicle to enable it able to go faster, it's pretty complicated.

You need to open the vehicle's .zip archive, find the correct .truck file (there may be multiple for different variations), extract it outside the .zip, and open it in a text editor.
You can then edit values in the engine section:
- add more torque for better acceleration
- change final gear ratio to get a higher maximum speed
- add more RPM (this is easiest but results in an unrealistic and loud vehicle)

You then save the file and put it back into the .zip archive. Also, update your cache in RoR's settings.

Hello,
Thank you for the info.

Re,
I have this in the .truck file then in the engine section :
engine ; min, max, torque, axle, R, N, 1, 2, 3, 4 950, 3000, 2265, 4.3, 5.0, 10.0, 1.78, 1.36, 1.83, 1.44, 1.33, 1.215, -1.0
What exactly will have to be changed to multiply the speed ?
Thank you.

Changing the differential ratio (4.3 I think, not sure) will affect all gears, but the torque at low RPM is still low for some reason (for me at least)
Or you could change only the final gear (I tried changing from -1.0 to -2.0 but didn't see any difference for some reason)


engine
;min rpm, max rpm, torque, differential ratio, rear gear, neutral, first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth...
1900.0, 5500.0, 170.0, 4.066, 3.0, 5.00, 3.181, 1.842, 1.250, 0.937, 0.711, -1.0
