Gear Shifting

[Bomberguy]

You heard about gear shifting on real life vehicles (Ford gran torino etc etc) Well this is just a suggestion Let me get this straight There is 3 options for your shifting
-Manual(Shift manually)
-Automatic(Shifts for you)
-And off(No shifting)
I think this will be great for racing servers and drag racing on Blockland and would be great on Filipes driving server or ANY other kind of server that involves driving
and if you are a car fanatic (Such as me X3) Filipe if you read this it would be greatly appreciated if you make a video or a addon about this.

EDIT: Also would have a speedometer if shifting is on
DOUBLE-EDIT: This shifting implementation might correspond to filipes more sounds suggestion if he might agree Or it will just work that way with a engine sound and pitch bending AS IF it were actually
shifting

It was only 10 minutes when you posted this...

Anyway, good idea but it will require sound to be linked to speed, which I think might be glitchy.  Would also need a keybind for manual shifting.

True enough But if this WAS implemented the keybind will be set to SHIFT + ]

It's been ten minutes. Calm down. It's slower around the BL discussion boards.

Anyways the closest we can currently get to this is holding the 'walk' key while driving to drive slower. Other than that this doesn't seem all that necessary. Have you been using your handbrake? Maybe on well-made vehicles that'd help you get your drifting fix.

Only one thing I don't think handbrakes to drifting in blockland Either that you mean Handbrakes prevent drifting.

I've always dreamed of making a big car racing server, involving a lot of client mods to work with server mods to make races realistic compared to other racing games out there. Sometimes I think about it being a reality, maybe some day.

Gear shifting is possible with client mods more likely, I think. Wasn't Zack0 making something like that?

This is easily possible and actually a mod exists for it already.

I was considering doing this for a while, but then I got sidetracked. It would be a client side mod, though.
