I started a new save yesterday and after a few weird issues I've now got the car running perfectly, it only overheats if I redline it constantly, it passed the inspection (this is the first time on any save i've done that which is nice, didn't know you got reg plates for it) and now i've ordered the aftermarket carbs/exhaust/radiator etc if any of you are wondering what the hell "warning triangle" on the inspection sheet means, you can grab it from the back of the tractor. it's one of those little reflective signs that you put down on the road when your car breaks down. must be a law in finland. i thought warning triangle meant there was a warning light on the dashboard or something at first lol [editline]13th November 2016[/editline] oops just broke fp with the double post
I will never ever get over the fact that bumping into the chassis while walking causes it to bend dramatically, I know crumple zones are a thing but this is ridiculous [QUOTE=JesseR92;51362239] do you just fall asleep where you are and wake up the same place [/QUOTE] you're a 19 year old who consumes enough peer to burst his bladder spontaneously in the quest to build Your Summer Car, your body won't collapse until the point where it never gets back up. :v:
[QUOTE=FlamingBlizza;51361921]Both of my front fenders keep falling off whenever I open the doors, even after tightening the bolts. Any fix for this?[/QUOTE] You most certainly overlooked a bolt. There's one all the way at the front and bottom, near the bumper. [editline]13th November 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=GentlemanLexi;51361426]my car overheats no matter what the guide for tuning the carburetor doesn't help at all fuck[/QUOTE] Be sure you've got your oil filled all the way up, too.
For some reason I can't even move after the last update. How do I fix this?

I just installed the racing radiator, and it's A LOT worse than the standard one. (Yes, oil and coolant are topped up) [editline]13th November 2016[/editline] Never mind, I forgot to close the cap. [editline]13th November 2016[/editline] and my fan belt disappeared

Friendly reminder that real men leave the rear axle lifted, and drive constantly in full-attack mode in dirtroads to get the greatest amount of fun. Personally I found that setting the steering wheel rotation to around 600º and turning the high speed steering thingie all the way down to zero makes for a great experience when driving the shit truck.

Went to the drag strip to see how well my car would do - 17.830 on the 1/4 mile, is that good? After that I started doing powerslides and shit around the runway - downshifted a little too aggressively for some hot wheelspins and the engine just ejected the main bearings onto the floor :(
Anyone else's game crashing when refueling the truck?
anyone else use there pit as a dump? [img]http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e244/teshok/20161108024728_1_zpsy6ofszmu.jpg[/img] found out when the ferndale runs out of fuel its rear end locks up. Spun off into a field going about 80 beer and sausage flying everywhere.

Started this game up. Spent 10 minutes trying to figure out how the shower works. Gave up and checked the garage. Had my mind blown by the amount of sheer detail. Got in the van to buy some more alcohol to cope. Spent another 10 minutes trying to lower the window. Then I crashed into a tree 25 meters from the house and died. After work I'll try again.
when do we get to drive time attack runs with the poop truck?
[QUOTE=Cmx;51363834]Measuring speed in beers now?[/QUOTE] I measure time in beers, I don't see why you can't measure speed the same way seeing as speed is just distance over time if a beer lasts 12 minutes and a keg is about 2 feet tall, than 80 beers is approximately a quarter of a kilometer per hour
I made a savegame editor ([url=http://i.imgur.com/yNcgZcD.png]pic[/url]) for MSC if you guys are interested. As the name suggests, it can load, edit and save the binary save files. It also highlights your changes and can make backups. Here's the [url=https://www.reddit.com/r/MySummerCar/comments/5cr9k0/msceditor_a_my_summer_car_savegame_editor/]Reddit thread[/url], cheers.

[media]https://youtu.be/KOY5AKPdQnQ[/media] [editline]13th November 2016[/editline] Sorry for potato quality... I only have 300kbps upstream. That video took me half an hour to upload.
I'll give that drifting 3/5 ghosts of Akina.

Is there an easier way to flip overturned vehicles, or am I doomed to spend ten minutes each time trying to click in [I]just[/I] the right spot?
[QUOTE=loopoo;51365905]Is there an easier way to flip overturned vehicles, or am I doomed to spend ten minutes each time trying to click in [I]just[/I] the right spot?[/QUOTE] Assuming you already know the general "sweet spots" such as the where the springs sit on the axles, etc... No, there is no better way. Unless you happen to have the tractor nearby.
Driving to and from the shop is a major pain in the ass then. I need to drive slowly or else I hit a bend and flip my van.
I put a case of beer and a small pile of sausages in the shit truck, and never used the van again.
I actually like the van. It goes faster and guzzles much less, and with a bit of practice you may even survive a grocery trip.
How do you even get to the grocery store? Once I hit the main road I realized I didn't even know where my own home was. I ended up commiting sodoku in the garbage dump.

Just keep in mind, if you end up at the shed with the shittruck and the tractor, or an orange dirt track, or the landfill, or in a ditch, then you must have taken a wrong turn somewhere.
