@unster said in Engine brake please:
@wiatowski Given how the drivetrain is simplified in this game, I don't really see the point at this time. The trucks in this game already get infinite engine braking, i.e. nothing can force them to go beyond the top speed of the current gear. Yet the engine is strangely quiet in that situation.
So I do like the idea of an engine brake, but the game would need more than that for this to be meaningful.
You're missing the point..... An engine brake to a trucker is like the rumble of a Harley to a biker. When driving around the AW maps ,or for that point using any large US truck an engine brake is almost an essential. An engine brake doesn't prevent the engine from maxing out, that is done by the engines governor. An engine brake is to assist you slowing/slow you down so you don't have to brake as hard. There are solenoids in the engine that open the exhaust valves at the top of the power stroke. It essential turns the engine into a giant air compressor.
This is what it should be like. Only video I could find that does it right.
