Gyrocopter Speed Torque and Handling Improvement
- A20 compatible
- Works on a current save
- Server side (only the person hosting the server needs the file)
Simple modlet that:
- Increases the speed of the gyrocopter in turbo (shift) mode (also decreases non turbo by 1 but probably not noticeable)
- Increases the torque of the gyrocopter plus the gyrocopter wheels to increase ground handling
- Reverse is actually usable now so if you crash into something while trying to take off you can easily back up and try again
- Can do easy takeoffs in tight spaces for better escapes or small runways, makes straight landing a little floaty though
These changes are pretty simple so people usually just change their own files or make a small modlet themselves, therefore there are not many mods on Nexus with speed and handling increases for those not wanting to mess with their files, so I thought I would put mine up for anyone looking for the same. I usually play on the 10km map size so faster vehicles is a must and with these settings I have enjoyed the gyrocopter so much more.
Non turbo mode is essentially the same for takeoffs and landings since it can be much more difficult at 75. Could be tuned a little more for even better straight on landings, maybe in a later version when I can test out some different things.
Speed changes:
- Property name = velocityMax
- Original Value = 9, 15
- New Value = 8, 75
Torque + Handling changes:
- Property name = motorTorqueMinQ
- Original Value = 1
- New Value = 50
- Property name = motorTorqueMaxQ
- Original Value = 1
- New Value = 75
- Property name = brakeTorque
- Original Value = 10
- New Value = 100
- Property class = wheel0
- Property name = torqueScale_motor_brake
- Original Value = 1, 1
- New Value = 50, 50
- Property class = wheel1
- Property name = torqueScale_motor_brake
- Original Value = 1, 1
- New Value = 50, 50
- Property class = wheel2
- Property name = torqueScale_motor_brake
- Original Value = 1, 1
- New Value = 50, 50
