    It seems engine damage only results from overheating, oil starvation and the like.
    It hit multiple vehicles into objects at 120-150 mph and the engines are not damaged at all.
    The forum is not allowing me to upload the image or a link to the image where i have crashed a 200bx into a wall at 130 and the engine is fine

    It depends on how you hit the vehicle and what engine is in it. If it is like a flat engine, it will break from turning. If it is an I- engine, you just need to hit it hard. for V-, it is the same.

    Some engines are just really strong or have good protection from the cars body. Others are really weak and will break by hitting a bump in the road like the K-Series Trackday

    I literally flattened the entire front half of the vehicle and the engine sustained zero damage. There is literally nothing in front of the rear seats but the engine is somehow fine

    I've noticed that every crash is different in BeamNG. Sometimes the engine will break, sometimes it won't. I think it's just chance that comes into play with how the engine moves during a crash and if it will hit a sweet spot and the engine breaks. I personally think this is great for this game in that you can't exactly reproduce two crashes or in this instance, you can't just break the engine from a hard impact. I bet eventually you will crash into a wall and the engine will in fact break.

    I get that and I like that about the game.
    But if you look at the picture there should be zero chance the engine survives that kind of crash

    It seems like the 200bx does have a indestructible engine in terms of crashing, but other vehicles i've tested seem fine.

    No mods, I just got a new computer so right now the game is bone stock.
    I tried it with other vehicles as well and some break some don't.
    It isn't all around indestructibility as I can still cause damage with overheating and oil starvation, it just seems like the crash detection for the engine piece isn't quite working.

    If no mods, then idk, maybe break trigger beam needs to be different or weakened :p
