The Speed, The Terrifying Speeeeeed! - BeamNG Drive

We are racing around a Mario Kart circuit on BeamNG Drive, however the slipstream settings might have been set a little bit too high...

Alex had to release his inner Demon and become Ghost Rider to steal 4th from Shadow

[@toblexson5020]

Poor Shadow, he looked behind and was faced with a car from the depths of hell chasing him down. No wonder he crashed.

I can't believe you'd just usurp Laddo's channel like this, Alex!

[@bhaughbb4239]

Infected with these mods on some of those previous multi level maps could be fantastic fun.

[@SteveM1959]

As a Canadian, I always thought my English vocabulary was quite good, but Alex has taught me so many new words. Todays lesson, I have kinda "unhelped" Stevie.

[@Knight1118-gk7ok]

Why did Alex end up with a BBQ'd car at the end? SABOTAGE!!!! Investigate, Alex! 😉

[@thenargacuga]

That has to be one of the single best finishes to a race I've ever seen

Respect to that Ken Block overtake in the second race!

[@anomalousanonymous]

Shenanigans off the start line? Naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Never gonna happen in a Failrace video.

[@ze_rubenator]

The slipstream mod seems like it should be super easy to fix. Off the top of my head I can think of two simple ways (I have no idea which is more "realistic"): 1. Use a logarithmic function for slipstream power with a customisable threshold. Now you get diminishing returns when adding multiple slipstreams together. 2. Apply only the most "powerful" of all slipstreams you intersect with, don't add them together.

[@Olrosse]

it does diminish with a normal value because it uses the total aero forces of the vehicle, so for each car going through it should in theory get weaker and weaker, the problem is when the multiplier is set high enough it becomes a back draft which can get so strong that it starts exponentially increase the draft with each vehicle xD, using the highest force will still cause that i think, I think maybe i could add a high multiplier mode that just uses the speed of the vehicle and not the aero forces to calculate it

[@ze_rubenator]

@@Olrosse Wait, are you telling me the slipstream is implemented by adding a backdraft??? Or am I misunderstanding? Cause that ingenious and also nuts. I'm guessing there are some limitations in Beam's modding capabilities =P Since actually modeling this would be a pain in the ass, my initial idea would be something very hacky like reducing air resitance depending on the car ahead's speed, drag and distance. Maybe reduce downforce too to simulate driving through turbulent air. That way, even if you reduce the slipstream to a vacuum, it will never _accelerate_ you. But that might be virtually impossible in a mod, I dunno. Also, not as funny.

[@toblexson5020]

Alex took the term hotlap a bit too seriously in the last race.

[@Sithhy]

Great to see my Sandshark mod being used, haven't seen it much on KZbin since its release

i wish alex would pronounce olrosse as just rosse , it fucks my mind when he adds the ol at the beggining lol

Well, everyone pronounces Olrosse like that. Amy, Neil, Camodo, Shad0s*. Must have something to do with their nametag... *: To name a few...

Do you use the steering wheel controllers to play this, or the Xbox style? I'm wondering how I'd need to tool up to try BeamNG Drive.
