Changelog
Update released with new features and bug fixes.
Added Features
The following features have been added:
Achievements
It is now compatible with STEAM's achievement system.
Of the achievements planned for the full release version, those available in the Early Access version are displayed.
Additional Rules
Initially we decided not to implement it, but due to popular demand we created additional rules that allow you to control water and oil temperatures while driving.
When the additional rules are enabled, the water and oil temperatures will increase depending on the engine load.
If either of them reaches a certain temperature, the engine will go into safe mode to prevent breakdown.
When the safe mode is activated, the engine speed, output torque, etc. are restricted and the vehicle will not be able to run at 100% performance.
In the UI, the red zone of the tachometer will be expanded and alert lamps on the water and oil temperature gauges will light up.
* Flashes as a warning.
Furthermore, if the additional rules are enabled, tire wear calculations will be performed constantly, meaning that durability will decrease even during free run.
*However, durability reduction rate will be suppressed to 1/4.
With the additional rules enabled, the rewards for defeating rivals are increased by 1.5 times, as you will need to manage these factors while driving.
The additional rules serves as a challenge element. So players who want to increase the difficulty, please try it out.
The additional rules can be enabled via a button on the GARAGE screen.
