Gear Shift for vehicle.

Read title.
Why not make Gear Shift for vehcile?

Because then you'd have to make a functioning engine

did you really have to show us two pictures for us to understand it

So because cubelands made a suggestion/request for a stick shift car it's suddenly bad? I don't quite get it.

OT: Stick shift would be cool, although I'm not completely sure it would be necessary.

I think it might be possible, have a few different types of acceleration and top speed datablocks that switch at a certain point.

this!

This would totally change how races function in Blockland today.

[.:FancyPants:.]

what is the shift button being used for in vehicles anyways?
press shift to cycle through gears, it might make sense.

oh god, we would need a slider that would increase for pressing W and some other stuff so people dont take off with the highest gear and speed at 120bps

Just imagine that in the tank. Oh Lordy I remember playing on Psp's server with fcbn and making tanks do barrel rolls and move at like 500bps.

OT: would be cool but not too important , I wouldn't wanna dedicate more space on my computer if a mod like that came out, but it's nice for racing.

That's not how it works. The highest gear has high speed and low acceleration. The lowest gear has low speed and high acceleration. Moving through the gear sequence, you take off fairly quickly, but it takes a while to reach top speed.

If you start on the last gear at a stop, you barely move. In a real car you'd probably stall the engine.

In Blockland terms: The first gear has high enginetorque and low maxwheelspeed. The last gear has high maxwheelspeed but low enginetorque. You only gain the advantage of a higher gear if you shift to it from the top of the last one.

we would still need a slider for acceleration...

torque engine's max is 200

Another cool thing could be having a clutch on some of the Dirt Bike models so you could use the clutch to shift up and down, for example you could press & hold shift then press 'W' to shift up and press & hold shift then press 'S' to shift down.
