    Wait, that's a thing? I knew we had regenerative breaking but I didn't know you could adjust it!

    I've looked and there doesn't seem to be any.
    it's under Radial Menu - Powertrain - Regenerative Braking for both Vivace E and eSBR. The default is full (1-pedal drive). I can get used to 1-pedal drive IRL cuz I can feel the G force so it's easy to modulate, but I can't physically feel the G force in video games so I always end up decelerate more that I want, so I prefer to turn it off or turn it down to the level similar to engine braking. BTW both of these allow regen when the battery is full which is unrealistic, real EVs won't allow regen when the battery is full or nearly full.

    I was able to load the radial menu just by pressing the escape key in Career Mode:

    Perhaps it's blocked during races or certain challenges/missions though.. let me know if you have perhaps modified your UI Apps or something to have removed the radial menu?

    I haven't modified the career pause menu UI but my user folder is old, so perhaps the radial menu wasn't there when that UI screen was first introduced. Manually adding the radial menu to the career pause menu UI worked.

    So about the 0.33 update, I like how the AI cars now drive a lot faster and actually adhere to the speed limit, before driving on the highway was such a pain. But I hate now they loitering around places they shouldn't be, just had one get in the way of me attaching a trailer at the dock. Job sites should be closed for regular traffic. And the race track is now always packed, making solo hot lapping not possible.

    OH SWEET! They fixed the AI speed!? Awesome.

    I hope the other issues get fixed though :p

    Overall this update is still AWESOME though.

    As always, thanks for pointing out the issues —really appreciate it! Recently there have been some changes to the "gated roads" setup, and it turns out, it’s causing more than a few headaches. Our AI traffic team is on it, diving into what's going wrong and figuring out how to fix it. Sorry for the hassle it's caused! It’s a bit of a tricky one, so it might take a bit to sort out.

    Glad you're enjoying it!!

    Yeah so about that...

    I hadn't gotten home yet and when I launched 0.33 it basically said "not enough disc space for data transfer, 2000(ish)MB needed, only 700(ish)MB avalable", when I had 707GB avalable on the disk Beam.NG Drive is on. And I lost all of my data... again :(. Please fix this for 0.34.
    --- Post updated ---
    That kinda ruined the "this update is awesome" part for me (still a great update, just tainted with mass data loss). please pass this along to somebody who can fix this for 0.34.

    Sorry that could’ve sounded a bit rude…
    Anyways, how come we only get to transfer our currency and XP?

    In short: The Career Mode release was initially intended to be a, "here's what we're up to, try it if you like, but and a very BIG but, it's under heavy WIP and will change with each release" but with the amount of people playing, it was recently decided, "lets start a migration system for the folks who have already sunken time in, EVEN THOUGH we warned them with pop-ups, and a constant banner at the top." So only a week before this last release, it was decided, "lets at least help folks with a quick and dirty solution and work on improving it for the next release, since enough people are asking for it already."

    We don't want to upset anyone, or scare people away from trying it, but have tried to maintain transparency towards systems changing and evolving. From parts management systems, to scoring and XP changes, migrating saves gets very tricky very quickly. It can be looked at as migrating from one game, to another, there are lots of changes underneath that do not cooperate with each other in that case.

    Regardless, for now, at least XP and Money are being transferred, and proper "update is out, merge your old save with it" is going to be actively worked on moving forward! :) It's the least we can do for everyone playing!

    Hi, just a few notes on 0.33. First of all please add a search bar to the My parts menu, so it is easier to navigate, and idk if I'm just blind but I still don't see mirror tuning in career. Also i saw you added a new drag racing system, will we ever see that in career? And one last thing when you go deliver something to Turbo Burger Drive-thru and have a bigger car (like my MD70) you can't fit under that red frame. You could just back in from the other side, but that is kinda awkward and impossible to do with a T-series because of the little roofs above the windows (trust me, I tried).
    Despite all this, it's a great update like always, keep up the great work. upload_2024-9-19_14-56-13.png

    YES the turbo burger dropoff/pickup NEEDS moved. Probably to one of the spots just in front of the building.

    Still a great update, that has just always been an issue that I kept forgetting to mention.

    Yeah the pick up spot is in front of the building so why not just make it a drop off spot as well

    The drop-off and pick-up points are strange for sure, that's an oversight, apologies for that! I'll get that taken care of right now and hopefully if there is another hotfix, it'll make it in!

    I agree as well, doesn't make sense to drop-off at the drive thru window anyway haha, weird. Thanks for the report folks!

    Nice, thanks, and what about mirror tuning, and My parts (Parts inventory) search bar, could that make it in the next hotfix?
