    The only way I have managed to turn the engine off is to set fuel to 0.
    I'm not gonna explain to you how to do that. I would but I'm at school. Figure it out yourself. You can do it. You're a big boy.

    I do it by changing transmission to Manual and Selecting the Highest Gear, That usually shuts down the Engine.

    To start the Engine again, Shift down to 1st.
    I use fully manual with a Clutch, I don't know if it will work with semi-Automatic.

    There is no way other than running out of fuel.

    that doesn't actually turn it off, it just has so little power in the highest gear from a stand still, that it can't move all that fast

    It's close enough, When I posted my way, I kept in mind that this game is still a work in progress.

    It doesn't shut it off. It just bogs the engine down. The car will still moves if you do it, and if you press in the clutch the rpm pops right back up to idle.
    It isn't even close to shutting the engine off at all.

    If you keep the clutch engaged you find that you can drive the car off of the idle RPMs. The engine doesn't turn off, nothing can stall it.

    Yeah but when you feed him misinformation, people have to step in and tell this guy the correct stuff. It would have just spiraled into more questions and confusion for this guy if someone hadn't corrected you.
    Nothing against you, I realize you were trying to help, just make sure your answers won't confuse the person more. :)

    We have not yet implemented stalling/restarting the engine. The only way to kill the engine is to drive underwater or run out of fuel (and you can't restart it afterwards; you have to respawn)

    It's applied to all the vehicles. I'm not sure if it's in the public build or not.

    I've made custom lua scripts with stalling for some of my cars. Idle is weaker than normally, so it's easy to stall the engine. Once RPM goes below 500 or so, it sets throttle to 0. Then there's a "starter" that works when you press clutch below idle RPM. In some cars, parking brake in neutral gear shuts off the engine, so it can be done without bogging it down in gear.

    Buttons for starter and ignition would be possible too. I haven't used them yet because there are some issues with custom inputs.
