Vehicle design... Or do I need lights?
Hey Gear City players, hey Eric,

here's a thing I still have no clue if it's neccesary or not: Desigining vehicles.

A long time ago maybe 4 years or something I know that it was neccesary to have at least axle mounts, wheels and lights on the car in order to get any sales.
Ever since then I do exactly that: Axle, wheel, light, done. Sometimes I add a bit more.

Thing is: The axles make your vehicles' wheelbase really wide.

I know that you can modify trunk space by changing the slider when designing the vehicle. But what benefit does each part like antenna, grill and so on have? Which parts are really neccesary and which aren't?

I'd really love a full explaination from someone who has tested all that if anyone has ever done so.

Thanks a lot in advance guys. Love the game, thanks for making it Eric! I really hope your sales go as expected.

Sadly, because of how poor quality the artwork turned out, I have not placed any limitations or requirements on the vehicle designs themselves. You simply just need to select a vehicle body. The dimensions of that body will effect ratings based on the size and shape, but everything else, tires, lights, etc are just decorations.

I suggest using the premade designs unless you enjoy playing with the vehicle designer. That is why they were implemented.

Thanks for the hyper quick response Eric. Then my "science" from years ago is gone. I was quite sure I couldn't sell any cars without axles. Well Maybe they were just crap :D

From now on however I can finally build the cars without axles so they look like actual cars which is lovely! Thanks!
