    I present my first jbeam project, a weight transfer machine.




    Tow hitch so you can tow multiple sleds.

    If you have know idea what I am talking about, watch the first 4 minutes of this video:

    If you skip to 2:05 in this next video you can see me demonstrate it to the chat on one of my recent streams (features an older version of the model):

    You can hook a tow hitch of a car to the chain at the front (of which is made from the giant flail prop, thanks BeamNG), it is programed to be ready as soon as it is spawned. All you need to do is pull it and the weight will start moving along to the front to increase the resistance. It moves by the distance it is pulled so every time the weight should get to the same place by the same distance. Once the weight is reset and back at the rear, it will be ready to pull again. The weight can be adjusted in the Tuning menu. Once the weight has gotten to a certian point, that is also set in the tuning menu, there are springs that start pushing down on the back of the pan.

    Controls:
    Reset weight: G
    Manually move weight forward: page up
    Manually move weight backward: page up

    The jbeam is indestructable so please don't be disapointed that you cannot damage it. It is purely for experimental purposes, I thought others might want to have a look.
    Let me know if you have any input on this.

      Thanks for your rating. This project is basically finished, it is a proof of concept that proves that game will react the same way to real life when it comes to friction and weight. I have started a better looking sled but I haven't much time to work on it.

    The New Update is awesome! I kinda expect that the new 1.3 update will have the Body of it and the other 4 wheels too! I suggest to make it drivable too, well not really that drivable, like it only goes reverse since it powered by the diesel engine w/ automatic transmission, and also, watch this video link so you can add this features too! (But I think you knew it already. But still watch it so you can add this so the T-Series will also struggle pulling the sled.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njxZloBl4ms

    This is a clever mod, if people are tired of doing Tug of Wars, then we have Pulling Sled Challenge! You can do from Drag Cars to a Powerful Diesel T-Series! If the update is coming soon, use the T-Series Wheels in the back, as I seen on the video you made, and put the D-Seires 8 Lug wheels on the front.

      Thanks. I have been trying to put those exact wheels on but I am confused how to do this. I need to sit down for a weekend and talk with the Modding for Dummies guys.
