![]() Running rich (open loop) can actually cause the engine to run hotter due to burning excess gas. You may think running the engine cooler is better for it, but not necessarily. This commonly happens even when the vehicle does not boil over. NEW UPDATE Its Like BeamNG Drive Crash Physics with Legos (Brick Rigs) Today Camodo Gaming tries out the experimental update in Brick Rigs. Why, you may ask, do I say not fail safe thermostat? They sound like a good idea, but if you ever overheat, even once, they go wide open and stay there. Play on servers with low ping and high reported average frames per second. All of this with little change in performance feel. It could be the parking brake, could be low frame rate/lag collapsing the suspension or even dropping wheels through the ground. If the vehicle temp doesn't hit 170 or so, the computer will not go closed loop and presto, crappy mileage. Never run a "fail safe" thermostat or run without one. Something as simple as a cracked vacuum hose or leaking exhaust header can cause it. I would venture a guess that 80% of the old XJs on the road are running open loop. As soon as something comes up and the computer goes open loop, the ratio goes down do 11-12. You can push the 'Delete' key on your keyboard to remove vehicles in the 1.0. Press and hold ESC, category sandbox, remove empty vehicles, doesnt matter if it is bound to a key or not it can be activated from there, use till the shortcuts are memorized. It is impossible to tune an older vehicle without being able to see the Air/Fuel ratio. You can push the 'Delete' key on your keyboard to remove vehicles in the 1.0. The key is it is geared to run around 2700 rpm at freeway speeds with the overdrive and TC locked, and I have it tuned for optimal mileage, not power. otherwise when in-game its in the escape key menu, in the match settings, you can also change it there but need to restart the server/match for the change to take effect. Four wheels, which will drive the vehicle and steer it. Two axles, which will transfer the power to the wheels. In order for the vehicle to work property, these parts are required: An engine, which will provide power to the vehicle. My 1985 XJ with a 4.7L stroker with 35" tires gets 21mpg on the freeway. in the menu when you set up the game, you can change the time limit for objects despawning. For this tutorial, we will be building a basic car. To get good mpg, you need to be running in your peak power band. The single biggest detriment to gas mileage on overland rigs is big tires with stock gearing. ![]() Might be problem with your internet then. Steam is still downloading the workshop files, and restarting it should force it to download them before the game starts. ![]() In sum, I realize that this isn't breaking news, but I thought I'd throw it out there because when I actually talk with my fellow OBers, their real-world differences aren't as stark. Originally posted by NoxiousFumes: Just restart the game. So while you won't ever hear me say that smaller vehicles aren't better MPG-wise than big-boned vehicles, I'd argue that the (modern) big ones are far less influenced by modifications like tires, lifts because they're built to haul a lot of weight. ![]() Over 10,000 miles of ownership, I've averaged just over 13 mpg in total (its my daily driver). With close-to-35" tires and a front air dam removal, my mileage dropped to roughly 15 mpg (hand-calculated). Here's my guess: the cost differential in terms of MPG difference is far, far more narrow between medium- and full-sized rigs versus a HD gas truck once modifications are taken into account.įor example: my Ram 2500 Power Wagon with a 6.4 Hemi got around 16 mpg (hand-calculated, no trip computer) on an 85-mile, TFL Truck-style highway loop. Now, I recognize that we're all getting punched in the face/wallet with the current fuel prices, but I'm curious to see just how much savings there ACTUALLY is to be had by sticking with a smaller rig versus a larger one? Especially once it's been modified? Other times however, people get their own creations stolen which they don't want, and the problem is it is hard to stop it in a rp server with no gmode or anything like that, so here is my suggestion:Ī bind or option in the settings that can be enabled to prevent any other player in multiplayer servers to get into your vehicle and take it, or save it in the workshop.So, I've been noticing that there's an awful lot of discussion out there on the "appropriate" MPG for overland vehicles, and how full-size (never mind HD) trucks/SUVs are thus not good categories. Sometimes its not too bad, as the creation is on the workshop. So basically, people like stealing other peoples creations.
