Should the "empty" grille be replaced with the one from the Hopper on all hoods?

    Honestly, my offroading skills are pretty mediocre, but I think this'll make up for it in spades. I can't wait to see what a skilled driver can do with this rig.

    Well sir, worry not! This truck has plenty of ability. It isn't the end all be all, but damn is it pretty darn good. You have to push it WAY past its design limits to actually get it to fail (flip)

    But also, to take full advantage of the truck, I plan on releasing (on launch day) a driving tutorial for this truck to maximize the vehicles potential... not that people don't know how to drive it, but even a lot of hummer drivers tent to mess up how to drive these things just because they don't understand how the truck really works. I intend to launch my video as a tutorial so that one can maximize the potential of this truck as far as it can go ;)

    Would this drive like an actual H1/Humvee to where pressing the brakes helps limit the slip of the wheels? I have a bit of mechanical experience with these and understand the problems and quirks when driving them so I have been thinking about how "mechanically" similar this mod would be to the real life version such as portal axles, brakes inboard of the geared hubs and for the "base" model, having very stiff suspension.

    You are 100% correct. The torsion differentials in the H1/Humvee have been recreated in Beam so that they function basically exactly as the real ones do. The whole drivetrain, frame, and suspension, is basically a 1 to 1 recreation of the actual thing. The body is 90% there, but Sithhy wanted it to be unique, so he changed the looks up a bit, but in terms of drivability... it should be as close as I can get it.

    .... Noice.

    But as good as coding for beamng is.. one game update. And boom. Mod gets problems lol. The only issue with the game is this..
    But otherwise it's amazing.

    Off topic: I guess the same thing with the ctk, the codes and stuff were good for that version.. now in 0.20.2, nada.. kaput.. ded. Whatever.. doesn't work....

    On topic: I guess some foolproof and updateproof coding is required. All the best.

    Well... it doesn't use any LUA to get the Torsen diffs to function. It is actually all done with physics. So unless they go in and decide to completely rework the drivetrain code again, which literally only just happened a few updates ago, it should be fine. Plus it survived that update with no necessary changes, so so far so good.

    This looks ebic. And a weird question to ask, but will you make the tracks for some of the stock cars too? I would love to drive a LeGran with tracks.
