WIP Beta released Citybus Hybrid 8.2.1

Because it's a discussion forum for a mod that is slowly becoming broken.

 

Arcanox updated Hybrid Citybus with a new update entry:

Update for BeamNG 0.33

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

noticed that the parking brake doesnt seem to work. apart from that, everything else is working like it used to. Thanks for updating it

 

hey i try to drive the cars and bus but nothing works (im on the most recent version can anyone help And yes i do have the core mod)

 

Can you make sure you delete (or temporarily move) any custom vehicle configs for the Citybus and try again? It was definitely working for me immediately prior to releasing the mod, so I'm wondering if you might have a part override (or variable override) that's affecting the pneumatic brake system.

Full disclosure that I have not tried out this latest release from the ZIP file I published, so there's a very slim chance that something got missed when I published the release, but that's pretty rare

 

Hi there, I just downloaded this mod with its latest version and the latest Arcanox core 5.2.0. the Hybrid variants work great, but the electric city bus config doesn't want to go: the parking brake is stuck on and the "low air" alert buzzer is constantly on. Any reason why this might not be working?

 

help ive had some issue with the mod the itybus and etk 800 dont work ive tried disabling my mods clearing the cache but nothing works is there a fix ?

im gonna try putting it in safe mode but after that i have no idea nayone ?

safe mode didnt work what do i do ?

 

Can you check and see if there is an Air Tank and an Electric Air Compressor installed on the Electric configuration for you? I thought I went through and verified that all the configurations had the required new parts for the pneumatics, but it's possible I missed one. There could also be a custom configuration conflicting with the official ones.

Can you elaborate on what you mean when you say it "doesn't work"? What isn't working?

Are you using the latest official Steam build of the game, and have you tried with no other mods installed?

 

Crazy timing, I am just testing that right now so i will update you in a moment, I know it has something to do with the air pressure and I think that's the same issue that Ayoub Mahjoub is having

I cant seem to find one through the search feature, where would i find it - it's not under Engine or Transmission

Ok, to give some more info, in the hybrid config the air compressor and air tank are listed as sub parts under "Gavril 8.9 L engine" but in the electric config, the engine is called "dummy electric motor" and has no sub parts, so nowhere to put a compressor or tank

 

when i spawn the car and bus the car and bus wont move steer or have any signs of life the body engine and all parts spawn but none of em work

tried with no other mod still wont work

 

My guess is due to the delay of the air brakes. Before the game update, the friction brakes have zero delay while electric motors have tiny delay. When braking normally the vehicle has blended brakes, the brake temperature increases a little bit before regen catches on due to the tiny delay then brake temperature drops as regen fully effective. However after the update, the air brakes have significant delay, when braking normally (braking forces fully covered by regen), the air brakes should have zero force at all, as regen is faster than air brakes. This "reversal" between before and after the update is causing the bug.

 

The electric air compressor seems to be broken on the hybrid busses, I cleared my cache but maybe I should do safe mode. My air keeps getting low and not going back up. The normal air compressor works fine but in a hybrid it's not very useful when the engine barely does anything

 

plz fix the electric air compressor bc the air gets low too quick

 

Are you using custom configurations or using other mods with this one?

I just tested it on a clean (freshly installed) version of BeamNG with only my mods installed, and the Electric Air Compressor pressurizes the air tank at least as fast as the regular engine-powered one with the engine revved up. It kicks in around 105 PSI and charges it up until around 130 PSI. It takes quite a bit of aggressive brake pumping (probably 30 seconds, at least) to drain the tank down to the point where the buzzer comes on, and it quickly recovers pressure.

 

when i load the all electric the handbrake dosent release ?

 

so deleted my other bus mods and cleared cache and the parking brake still doesnt work weirdly. just east up air in the tank

 

let me just say that i only drive the bus with that mod

 

Arcanox updated Hybrid Citybus with a new update entry:

Electric Configuration Pneumatics Bugfix

Read the rest of this update entry...

 

no custom configs and to my knowledge im not using any mods that would interfere with the bus at all. i'll try it with all my mods disabled. if it still doesn't work with mods disabled ill send a video
--- Post updated ---
this is with cache cleared and arcanox core and the hybrid mod enabled only

 

Are there any errors or warnings in the in-game console that seem related? (tilde key opens console)

I am genuinely stumped as to what else might break it. It works fine on a clean install and clean userfolder for me, but I can't think of anything that could differ between two computers that would cause it to not work.
