Gear shifting

HI,
thank you in advanced.

So I have found shift is a clutch, I put my car into the manual without the clutch assistance. It would still shift without using the clutch. Can i make it so that you cant?
I know its most likley a stupid question but anyway?

 

No its not implemented yet.

 

Nor while it be. Go get in a real manual car, you can physically move between gears without touching the clutch, with some skill you can even do it without damage. Upshifts are easy as all hell, let off the throttle, rip stick from one gear and force into the next one and it will do it, though with a tiny bit more synchro wear.

 

Now i know how to drive my manual car when i break my leg

 

you really are abusing it doing that and the downshifts are trickier, need pretty much 100% perfect rev matching, got a window of like 50rpm in which the shift is possible

 

I better don´t try it out

 

What do you mean with "nor while it be"? Not going into gear with the clutch engaged is an essential part of a car simulation. (Yes, you can powershift but you need to be very precise and as you said it will increase wear even if you do it flawlessly).
I hope that, when they implement realistic gear shifting they add some convincing gear grinding sounds when you mis-shift. Yesterday I mis-shifted with my Opel Astra (damn new shoes) and the sound was unholy.

EDIT: I confused the therm "powershifting" (shifting without depressing throttle) with shifting without pressing the clutch, sorry

 

He means you should always be ABLE to, not that it wouldn't be a terrible idea to do and would ruin the transmission especially if done wrong, like you said, you misshifted in real life so it's obviously possible.

 

It's incredibly hard on the hubs and synchros. The frex h shifter I want has a built in mechanism called simsynchro. It will physically stop you from engaging the gear if the clutch isn't in and might vibrate to simulate grinding. Look up the frex h shift it's rad.

 

Essentially what I mean is yes a real car has nothing to prevent shifting and will even shift clutchless. There is nothing wrong with the game letting you do that. The only thing missing is the way the game has no transmission damage.
