User Interface

BeamNG.drive offers a highly customizable and extremely flexible User Interface that can adapt to anybody’s preference.

The UI Layout is composed of various Apps, each with its own scope (ie. Tachometer, Messages, etc.). The game comes with a number of UI Apps.

The layout can be edited while using the Freeroam game mode: Apps can be moved, resized, removed and added from the Apps library.

 UI Layouts

Pre-defined layouts will be loaded depending on your activities. For example, for bus routes, you’ll see additional apps for stops.
