1. Go to the Statistic Tab

Go to the market tab (the tab before track testing) and press the Description button

2. Add what you want to add

~prop:[Fixture number],[Function],[Rotation X],[Rotation Y],[Rotation Z],[Translation X],[Translation Y],[Translation Z],[Min],[Max],[Offset],[Multiplier]~
~prop:0,steering,0,1,0,0,0,0,-900,900,0,1~
~prop:1,clutch,-20,0,0,0,0,0,0,240,0,1~
~prop:2,brake,-20,0,0,0,0,0,0,240,0,1~
~prop:3,throttle,-20,0,0,0,0,0,0,240,0,1~
~prop:4,rpm,0,-0.03,0,0,0,0,0,10000,0,1~
~prop:5,wheelspeed,0,-3.1,0,0,0,0,0,240,0,1~
~prop:6,oil,0,-1,0,0,0,0,0,180,0,1~
~prop:7,temp,0,-1,0,0,0,0,0,180,0,1~
~prop:8,fuel,0,-1,0,0,0,0,0,180,0,1~
~prop:9,parkingbrake,20,0,0,0,0,0,0,240,0,1~
~prop:10,steering,0,0,1,0,0,0,-100,100,0,1~
~prop:11,steering,0,0,1,0,0,0,-100,100,0,1~
~prop:12,airspeed,0.08,0,0,0,0,0,0,90,0,1~
"theres also code for boost gauges: ~prop:45,turboBoost,0,-4,0,0,0,0,-40,80,0,1~" -volvoguy

Use this for funny lights (pop-up)
\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

~prop:19,lights,24,0,0,0,0,0,0,65,0,1~
~prop:20,lights,20,0,0,0,0,0,0,65,0,1~

(Stole it from someone in the workshop)

3. Figure out what is the part number (Outdated)

Go to the Fixtures Tab and try to find the fixture number

Say you want to make the speedometer to work

You put 40 in the fixture number, export it, but it didn't work

~prop:40,wheelspeed,0,-2.2,0,0,0,0,0,122.222,0,1~

-----------Why?-----------

For some reason, a mirrored fixture counted as 2 fixture

(something like Headlights etc)

But in the UI it only counts as 1

Meaning if you're not prepared good luck counting from the start

Ended up on fixture number 58 here

(edit : you could delete and undo [Control+Z] to move the fixture to the bottom)

Just use the number

4. Rotation Calculation

"speedo needle is min 0 and max 50 m/s (~180 km/h) in this case. -5.6 in Y rotation is 280 deg / 50 m/s = 5.6 (negative because the needle was going the wrong way)

rpm needle is min 0 and max 7000 rpm in this case. 0.03 in Y rotation is 210 deg / 7000 rpm = 0.03"

I'd recommend getting AutoBeam. It walks you through how to make all sorts of moving props for Beamng.

This is everything i have running in mine, obviously there not not all just going to work for you if copied because of differences in prop placement etc but it gives an idea of how it should lay out.
The gears are manual box listed,
N R 12345
The shifter prop for each gear should be placed as desired then flipped with the horizontal flip button 180 degrees from where they appear in beam except neutral which is saved in its normal state.

This was very useful thank you for making this!

ThatGinga 20 May @ 4:01pm

I've always had to do it as "brake_input" "throttle_input" and with the "turboBoost" it does work however only with turbos, it did not work on a supercharged engine in my testing

logieh123 22 Mar @ 4:58am

it didnt work

Volvo_guy 4 Mar @ 1:38pm

theres also code for boost gauges: ~prop:45,turboBoost,0,-4,0,0,0,0,-40,80,0,1~

if using autobeam, guide says green axis arrow towards driver anti clockwise and arrow away is clockwise but i find this to be the opposite effect so bare that in mind

pointsmakeprizes 19 Feb @ 9:25am

get the autobeam as said below. i now have working everything thanks to that buety.

Skitty 19 Feb @ 4:41am
