Straight Cut Gears Upgrade Video + Extra Info (Patreon)
Content
New video showing the straight cut gear sound effects, hope you think it's cool. Here's some extra info;
There's 4 different gearboxes to choose from;
- Stock: neutral gearing bias, no adjustments. (~50% short/long)
- Street: manually adjustable gear bias to 80% of the gear bias range, no straight cut sound.(MIN: 20%, MAX: 80%)
- Short Ratio: faster acceleration, low top speed. Shorter gear bias than the street adjustments can reach, but very extreme. Not adjustable. Inspired by rally cars, will mostly be used for high level touge racing. (0% VERY SHORT)
- Long Ratio: slow acceleration, high top speed. Also has longer gear bias than the street gearbox, meant to be used for high speed racing only. Very easy to fall out of the powerband and revs climb very slow. (100% VERY LONG)
Gear bias adjusting isn't included in the demo(no time to make menu), but this is how the gearboxes work. Most parts in Night-Runners have advantages/disadvantages, so equipping the highest level is not always the best answer for drivability.
- When you equip a short or long ratio gearbox you get the straight cut gear sounds, you get a gear indicator on the dashboard and the gear shift sound changes.
