Busy bees working on a proper physics and testing the balance. So far so good, we'll share more once we have something completed!
I wanna hear your opinion guys since I'm not reading all the topics about the electic motor implementation.
Me and Nicola trying to take steps towards this feature but we clearly don't want to make it work by pressing a button every time we need a deploy, this deals nothing with the amount of concentration you need during the fast lap.
Is there any way to deploy P2P when you pressing the throttle (aside from assiging it on the same axis as throttle which actually sounds like a good idea hahaha)? Let's say we have unlimited time for deploying the P2P, is it possible to limit the amount of energy you can deploy by lap and control it via some settings such as motor map or something else?
Another idea that came across my mind is making electric motor as a primary engine and then somehow connect the V6 turbo to it as an additional engine just like P2P connected in HDV file.
What do you guys think? Let me know if any of things above could be implemented somehow.
Cheers!
There's unfortunately not much flexibility with the P2P system. There is an automatic deploy feature for the electric motor, but it's only based on throttle input, which isn't ideal. I've been playing around with the system since it came out, and the most efficient way seems to be just have an on/off button. You can limit energy deploy per lap and such, but not a lot more beyond that.
There are third-party options as mentioned above, but you have to add more parameters than just throttle position to make it work well. IRL I believe they have a few factors (G forces, wheel slip, gps location, etc.) to control the electric deploy. With only the throttle to determine the deploy you will end up in many scenarios where you are still somewhat traction limited and get an additional 100 Nm of torque.
