What BeamNG Could Look Like in the FUTURE!

[@drewlucas6266]

The AI issue is especially egregious for the police AI. It used to be perpetually seeking any way to immobilize you, no matter the cost, pulling no punches. Now, it is seemingly dumber than the first ever phone.

[@talongaming7995]

Exactly

[@Le_Dark_boi]

I'm glad i'm not the only one who noticed

[@Imapigeonindeed]

They just ram you or mostly just tap you and also traffic AI there is no idiot drivers

[@OrengarMK3]

Literally go the opposite way I'm running from them.

[@Snapsash]

I’ve had an ai chase me and I jumped off this small hill it slide down it then it proceeded to try to climb it when I was right behind they really need to fix the ai it’s to dumb

[@SpaceGood.]

The Ai traffic already has multiple personalities. Some can road rage, follow you for your insurance, run away from an accident/hit and run, although I agree they should be drastically expanded upon with more realistic behaviours. Also yes, finally someone mentioned more mechanical bits to break in the car, more damage types, engine failures etc. The reason why I love the 0.5.3 and 0.23 updates so much.

[@idabe170]

the hit and run ones make me very mad one ran a red light and t boned me and just dipped

[@abdulgill5013]

Another personality is the criminal vehicle, (only works when having a police car with sirens up). Most vehicles yield or move out of the way, but there’s always this one pesky car that’s willing to run away.

[@WingsandBlades257]

Sometimes a civillian car will try to assist the police in trying to stop you if you are trying to evade the police.

[@SOS_Studios]

I could be driving down the highway, and a car will quickly turn into my lane without using blinkers and cause a huge crash 😭

[@WingsandBlades257]

@ that has never happened unless if I'm in a police chase. Strange. Maybe you have something on.

[@primeyboy2009]

I hope the 0.35 will be the Sunburst remaster, scratches, dynamic weather, and wipers!

[@Roadvergeant]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but scratches and something similar to it wont be happening anytime soon. Beam is constantly updating its game and its engine, and as mentioned in the video it leaves a room to be improved. Theres TONS of cars thatt havent been put into the game, so if they added scratches mechanic to the game, theres a great chance it would get borked and some stuff had to be redone which adds more delay for updates.

[@Redstoneprofi01]

I believe scratches are very difficult to do as beam devs want it as realistic as possible and can't just add a scratch texture at every collision point

[@Brick873]

0.35? Holy shit i thought we were still in the .20s

[@ZipZapTesla]

​@@Roadvergeant This is not how game design works.

[@Roadvergeant]

@@ZipZapTesla The point is, theres bigger issues and other much more important stuff to tackle first. The biggest example is the transition of beamng using Vulcan, its still buggy as is but much more stable. Scratches or dynamic dirt will definitely clashes and might break the game or the vehicle textures in general. Its just not worth it in this state of the game

BeamNG requires 16 gb ram not 2

[@2fast2furious978]

@DenisClan I'm telling you now, 16 isn't enough. I had 2 8gb ram sticks, and it always gave me ram issues. You need 32 minimum, or atleast more than 16

On the repo, someone ported a series of maps from some other game with CarKiller's help. Certain connection routes will teleport you between points on different maps. Level loading screens may ruin the purists' immersion, but it's one workaround for the constraints in BeamNG's game engine, in case something fundamental in the engine's architecture prevents streaming parts of larger maps in and out of memory as a player travels. Great point about chance for minor mechanical/electronic degradation or breakdowns. I've been hoping that this game mechanic will make its way into the game for career mode. Right now, buying a car wiith 300k miles on it is just cheaper than a new low mileage car. I don't know if any such wear and tear mechanics are in game, but I haven't seen any. I'd just like the physics simulation to be weightier. Not sure if it's possible to fully prevent 3D objects from glitching into each other, crash welding, jittering around, etc in collisions. Doesn't have to be solved bottom up with painfully detailed soft body physics (which admittedly is BeamNG's shtick). At a certain level of detail, I'd just be happy with a shortcut method like increasing dampening on objects so that a 2-ton industrial roll of sheet steel will just go thunk when it falls (then maybe roll away slowly before that's also dampened).

[@joshpipe7755]

Wow, do you have the name of the author behind these maps? The ones with teleport/loading screens?

[@dakaodo]

@@joshpipe7755 I didn't much care for the maps myself, but they're from an old game with sentimental value for some players, I guess. :D Look for Stalburg maps from the game INFRA. Author AgentMooshroom5

The ideal racing game would be i racing with a one time purchase

[@mishkinyskazkisb3614]

I'm waiting for a feature that no one talks about, but it's obvious and very cool. Make the movement between maps like in Snowrunner. That is: you drive up to the end of the track at a marker, press a button and choose where to go. Imagine a career in which you can go from the West Coast to Utah or any map at all. For example, buy a car here, make it, and sell it there for more money... Car dealerships have been added to all maps, but the career is only on the West Coast for now hmm...

[@reedtkfilms7077]

a sim game for dirtbikes has a very good way of dealing with dirty vehicles its simply stages putting a overlay on the bike 1. being lightly dusty 2. some stains appear over time .3 getting muddy 4. muddy 5. coated it doesnt have to be dynamic and it really blends together when your bike slowky gets dirty without you really noticing the heavy diffrence between the 5 stages

[@GeisemoOUTATIME]

not really particles but the parts breaking, like doors and stuff, they can only deform and detach but not break in 2 pieces, that would be a massive improvement in beamng!

[@andymb601]

The map size is mainly due to Torque3D not allowing maps to load in chunks (how most games do it so the whole thing doesn't have to be loaded at once)

[@ZE1WHO1]

It is not bad... It keeps game compact and gives you the reason to learn maps... For me that is an upside

[@BeamDriver]

Thanks for the more accurate explanation!

[@imnotfromnigeria5948]

a big issue with the AI traffic is that vehicles spawn stationary and need to accelerate to reach the speed limit. It's especially when playing with heavy traffic as it forces the other cars to slow down. It would be more realistic if vehicles spawned already moving at either the speed limit or a calculated speed for their position (or maybe im just imagining this).

A very niche thing I would love is being able to hear the gears being selected and the ignition being switched on and off from outside the car. Kind of like in GTA V or TDU 2. Cause when you use orbit camera you only hear the engine when I feel like you should be able to hear other things, too, even if it might be a bit unrealistic. Idk someone make a mod of that lol

"Unrealistic" is why they never did that.

[@nishiki2009yakuza]

another issue with large maps is that beamng requires precise physics, where larger maps will, with distance, decrease the floating point accuracy, a lot of older games worked around this by basically having world sections that move to the centre of the coordinate system, this means that one map is really a partition of 8 smaller subsections that have their own local coordinates. implementing something like this in beamng might be the way to increase future map scale

[@luna_fm]

i would like to adres a missconception about the maps becoming unperformant when too large. there are currently countless games which have an enormous game world, the technique used to improve fps is by loading and unloading parts of the map from and to memory, that way you can have a map as enormous as world of warcraft or guild wars 2 without impacting performance as your Ram stores game data like colliders, mesh, shaders, lights etc etc. you absolutely can have a gargantuan map without tanking performance as long as its correctly solved by the developers and the engine. i am not to well versed in that matter but perhaps someone else may know if the engine the developers are using suports streaming map parts in and out like many other games do already
