I don't no

I doubt there will be another version, but if there is, Id like to see more things to do with the cars once they're fixed up. A large map to free roam on with race events, stores, specialty shops, Junkyards. Used car lots. Abandoned wrecks that can be claimed. I know it sounds a bit like NFS Underground2 or The Crew, but a game like that with CMS level mechanics would be the best car game ever!

Hello,

I agree with your ideas. I will add, more realistic driving.

I have a lot of ideas for the garage:
- create a hub puller, on the model of the spring extractor but portable,
- further highlight the importance of electrical circuits. By making mini connection games for example
- be able to repair news elements in the laboratory : windows and lights
- that we can repair : pistons and connecting rods, pulleys, hub cover, cups, clutch thrust bearing, flywheel, camshaft cap
- that we can't repair : clutch disc (wear piece)

I would like to point out that I have over 400 hours on the game and that I love it!

Sounds more like a 'Mechanical Engineering' shop. Regular 'Car Mechanics' don't do all that. In fact, the game allows us to 'repair' a lot more parts than regular mechanics in the real world actually repair. Most parts just get sent back to manufacturers to get refurbished. And, we just swap em out with a new (refurbished) part. Engine heads for example... we send those to a machine shop to get a 'refurbish' job done on them... if they actually 'can' be re-worked. A lot of times, parts have too much damage to them and aren't in good enough condition to fix them. They just go into the scrap metal bin to be melted down... or garbage if they're not recyclable. Really, if some game devs wanted to, they could turn the whole repair side of this game into it's own game. Maybe call it 'Mechanical Engineer Simulator' but, that isn't what car service shops do normally.

I agree. For this I was also wondering if a repaired part should be limited for example to 90%. Or make a separate category for used parts.

I realize that the discussion already exists

That's been suggested by several of us... only being repairable up to a certain percent. Definitely should NOT be 100% repairable. I mean, take an alternator for example. You could disassemble on down to it's core components. The frame of it (casing) would still have wear in it. The depressions where rods and bearings will sit into the casing are going to be worn a bit so things don't fit super snug as they did originally. This means that part (after rebuilt) will wear out sooner than a brand new one would. So, to represent that properly within the game, maybe it should only be 92% of it's 'new' part condition. The 'correct' percentage would be debatable ofc. But, it still should be less than 100%. And, that goes for ANY part being 'repaired' versus buying new.

It has been.

Possibility of disassembling the gearbox into parts and the possibility of improving the gears, e.g. by adding straight teeth or simply adding a claw gearbox that will change gears faster, possibility of installing Nitro or adding licensed parts from manufacturers such as Brembo brakes or Recaro seats or several tire and rim manufacturers

The problem with adding real life brands and logos is; The dev team would have to purchase rights from all those brand owners. They already have to do that with the cars they use for DLC and it's a bit of a Pita--which is why there are several brands that have never made it to DLC. That probably won't happen. However, modders can get away with it and do make mods for that. I figure they get away with it cuz companies don't figure it's worth bothering with to go after some nobody who has practically nothing to go after... idk.
