    The shift logic is fully applied here. Did you actually watch the youtube vid ? There's no such thing as a 5 speed involved nor on the vid nor in our gearbox. The reason why there are 9 gears instead of 8 is because BeamNG counts all gears as numbers, and the LO (crawler) has to be the first. The pattern however is a carbon copy of the real life scenario. There is a good chance by the way that the UI app as well as the OBC screen will have the proper gear naming in the future, I'm currently exploring the possibilities.

    if beamng counted all gears as numbers then it would be just a sequential 18 speed.

    What im trying to say is that the 6th to 9th speeds are just the 1st to 4th (not counting the crawler), because the high and low range are a reversed spitter. The splitter reduces the gears, while the high range increases the gears. Which is why you shift the 5th gear in the same place as the 1st gear. It is because it is the same 1st you shifted before, just a longer variation of it thanks for the high range.

    If you set all 8 gears (9 by considering the crawler), then you'll make the high and low range bind obsolete, since the high range gears are set as if the transmission didn't had them.

    If the high and low range bind is obsolete then you will need a 10 gate shifter to control the gears, it's as simple as that.

    Are you using shift up and shift down buttons by any chance ?

    I already got a 9 gate shifter and it works just fine without the high and low range. You're the one who says its correct.

    Then where is your reverse gear at ?

    Reverse gears don't add up to the gear count because every transmission has one.

    I'm sorry ? You WILL need a gate to use it :)
    By the way, which is the make of your 9 gate shifter ?

    Let's assume you have a six-gate shifter (like the Logitech Driving Force shifter)
    That'd be
    1 3 5
    | - | - | - |
    2 4 6 R

    In Low-Range, the '1' gate is R1L & R1H. The '2' gate would be LL & LH (viewed on the UI as 1L & 1H), gate '3' would be 1L & 1H (viewed on the UI as 2L & 2H). Gate '4' would be 2L & 2H (viewed on the UI as 3L & 3H), gate '5' would be 3L & 3H (viewed on the UI as 4L & 4H), and gate '6' would be 4L & 4H (viewed on the UI as 5L & 5H).

    In low-range, you as such only have access to the first ten (10) forward gears.

    Switch into high-range, and gates 3, 4, 5, and 6, become gears 5, 6, 7, and 8. They are viewed on the UI as 6, 7, 8, and 9. And the entirety of the High-Range is splittable like the low-range, making up a total of 18-Gears. Now I know this gearbox works as it should because I have extensively tested it with the proper hardware (even though I don't use an SKRS shifter of any kind) As the Eaton 18-speed is already familiarized in my during my past times in ATS, I had no trouble shifting this thing at all. Now let me ask you a question, what is your wheel and shifter setup? And did you have any past experience shifting the Eaton Fuller 18-Speed in ATS?

    Finally, someone who's into actually into solving the issue

    Thrustmaster T300RS + pedals + no shifter

    I don't know how the scripting works, but i can shift a manual car in beamng with just the use of the steering wheel's buttons. I don't know if you tested it without a shifter yet. But without one only the splitter works. Plus, the high range gears works in real llife in a similar manner as the splitter; just by increasing the gears instead of reducing them, so if i am not mistaken i would say it wouldn't make sense to script the high range a different method.

    I think you need to clear up your act and your profile page too. In a perfect world I should report you.

    As you are not using a shifter, you don't need to set up the high-low range and range indicator bindings (As per mentioned in the FAQ) because the script automatically handles that for you as shift with the 'shift-up' & 'shift-down' bindings and not with a dedicated shifter in which the number of gates would be limited to either 6 or 8.

    Do you have a shifter?
    Yes? Great, you can make use of the proper range usage.
    No? Fine as well, but steer clear of the High - Low Switch and Range Indicator bindings since they won't be of use to you.

    I said i got a 9 gate shifter as the 18 speed in-game.
    I still don't see a reason for automatically setting the high-low switch when you don't have a shift though, because 18 speeds aren't set like that because the transmissions are limited to 6 or 8 speeds, it is because the high range is the same 4 first gears, just increased by the high range like i said before

    There are multiple reasons as to why this is.
    1. Less struggles when using Keyboard/Gamepad/wheel without shifter setups. Having too many controls to use the vehicle makes it overall less user-friendly
    2. There is no useful need for this feature when using Keyboard/Gamepad/Wheel without setups. These are not limited to a number of shifter positions (6 for Logitech, 8 for Thrustmaster and Fanatec) as physical shift knobs are.
    3. Easier to understand.

    It all comes down to user-friendliness. Would you rather press 5 buttons to upshift your truck as opposed to 2? I'd definitely go for the 2 because on such setups it's simply much faster and easier to use.

    Well the high-low switch is only used for shifting from 4th to 5th and vice versa so i don't think it is such a hassle. We already got a jake brake and a retarder which could be even more hellish for the number of binds if not mentioned you only use them to reduce your speed

    That may be your opinion, however, behind-the-scenes testing by a sizeable group of people proves otherwise.

    Thank you! We appreciate it.

    This is a known issue. Pressing CTRL + R will fix it for now. Is fixed for the next version.

    Btw, as for the smoking radiator thing. I just remove and add the radiator back in the parts menu as well as pressing CTRL+ R, too. CTRL+R really helps, so thank you for giving information about that. :)
