Dev's added a S+ S* and some other functions to 0.16, so i tried to use them to make a boost controller without having to add a $wastegatestart to the turbo jbeam, like they are irl, the turbos make a single pressure for said vehicle and uts size and whatever, then people add boost controlles to modify the wastegate's parameters, and i wanted to do that, with the turbo having it's normal fixed wastegate values, and a part overwriting it and making it variable, but it doesn't quite work and i need help this is what i added on the jbeam, i got the lines from the variable turbo and tried to add the + like its said on devblog but it doesn't work, it just shows in the menu and that's it
Hey Ezo did you get it working mate? Here's a working example for the Civetta Bolide of what I think you were trying to achieve. I changed the variable to work off a single input to make it easier to set the boost pressure. I've also set "wastegateLimit" as the variable instead of "wastegateStart" and used a subtraction of 0.7psi to set the "wastegateStart" value ($=$wastegateLimit-0.7) Working the same way as the stock vehicle which is ($=$wastegateStart+1) results in engines producing a slight over boost, not much of a problem in beamng but it could result in pinging/detonation irl. { "super_turbo_stage3_hog0005": { "information":{ "authors":"BeamNG", "name":"Stage 3 Variable Boost Turbocharger", "value":2800, } "slotType" : "super_intake", "slots": [ ["type", "default", "description"], ["super_boost_controller","super_boost_controller", "Boost Controller"{"coreSlot":false}], ], "turbocharger": { //"bovSoundFileName":"event:>Vehicle>Forced_Induction>Turbo_05>turbo_bov_race" "hissLoopEvent":"event:>Vehicle>Forced_Induction>Turbo_05>turbo_hiss_race" "whineLoopEvent":"event:>Vehicle>Forced_Induction>Turbo_05>turbo_spin_race" //"bovSoundPressureCoef": 1.0, //"bovSoundVolumeCoef": 0.7, "hissVolumePerPSI": 0.0246, "whineVolumePer10kRPM": 0.0545, "whinePitchPer10kRPM": 0.054, "wastegateStart":100, "wastegateLimit":100, "maxExhaustPower": 40000, "backPressureCoef": 0.00008, "frictionCoef": 60, "inertia":12, "damageThresholdTemperature": 800, "pressureRatePSI": 50, "pressurePSI":[ //turbineRPM, pressure(PSI) [0, -3.5], [30000, -1.5], [60000, 12], [90000, 23], [150000, 37], [200000, 46], [250000, 51], [300000, 55], ], "engineDef":[ //engineRPM, efficiency, exhaustFactor [0, 0.0, 0.0], [650, 0.17, 0.12], [1400, 0.29, 0.14], [2000, 0.41, 0.25], [2500, 0.54, 0.35], [3000, 0.65, 0.49], [4000, 0.79, 0.63], [5000, 0.88, 0.84], [6000, 1.0, 0.93], [7000, 1.0, 1.00], [8000, 1.0, 0.95], [9000, 1.0, 0.91], ], }, "mainEngine":{ //turbocharger name "turbocharger":"turbocharger", "instantAfterFireCoef": 1.5, "sustainedAfterFireCoef": 1.5, }, "soundConfig": { "$+maxLoadMix": 0.2, "$+minLoadMix": 0.1, "$+intakeMuffling":0.4, "$+mainGain":3, "$+eqHighGain": 7, }, "vehicleController": { "clutchLaunchStartRPM":1800, "clutchLaunchTargetRPM":2400, }, "flexbodies": [ ["mesh", "[group]:", "nonFlexMaterials"], //["super_turbo", ["super_engine"]], //["super_intercooler", ["super_radiator","super_intercooler"]], //["super_manifold_turbo", ["super_engine"]], ], } "super_boost_controller_hog0005": { "information":{ "authors":"BeamNG", "name":"Boost Controller", "value":2800, } "slotType" : "super_boost_controller", "variables": [ ["name", "type", "unit", "category", "default", "min", "max", "title", "description"] ["$wastegateLimit", "range", "psi", "Engine", 5, 5, 40, "Turbo Boost Pressure", "Pressure at which the wastegate begins to open"{"stepDis":0.5}] ], "turbocharger": { "bovSoundFileName":"event:>Vehicle>Forced_Induction>Turbo_05>turbo_bov_race" "bovSoundPressureCoef": 1.0, "bovSoundVolumeCoef": 0.7, "wastegateStart":"$=$wastegateLimit-0.7", "wastegateLimit":"$wastegateLimit", }, } } Hope this helps mate.
