Cleaning Up After Your Customers

Hey everyone!


Cleaning the interior is an essential part of maintaining your vehicles in Car Rental Simulator. And let’s be honest, clients are messy! After each rental, they can leave behind all kinds of dirt, and it’s your job to get the car back into proper condition.

To help with that, you’ll be using a handheld vacuum cleaner, which quickly becomes your best friend when dealing with interior mess.

We’ve designed a system that groups dirt into readable clusters, making it easier to understand what kind of mess you’re dealing with. Depending on the situation, you might notice different types of debris that hint at whether someone was smoking, transporting animals, or just not being particularly careful inside the car.

To make things more convenient, you can activate a highlight system that helps you quickly locate remaining dirt inside the vehicle. This is especially useful when you’re trying to finish the job efficiently. There’s also a dedicated UI indicator that shows how many dirt spots are still left to clean, giving you a clear sense of progress as you work.

The cleaning itself is straightforward. Hold the mouse button and move over the dirt spots. The debris is dynamically pulled toward the nozzle, making the process feel smooth and responsive.

It’s a simple loop, but an important one. It helps you keep your vehicles in shape and ready for the next customer.

Don’t forget to wishlist Car Rental Simulator, and stay tuned. Soon you’ll be able to try the free prologue yourself!

PS. Don’t forget to add the upcoming free slice Car Rental Simulator: Prologue - Early Days to your wishlist!
