Disable car damage

[Sarge]

I got this for my son as he loves watching it on youtube. However, is there a way to disable car damage so I dont have to keep on resetting the car for him? Id like to be able to drive around, jumping etc without damaging the car.

That's not possible. That would requre a massive rework of the physics engine, since the damage model of the game is the main focus of the game engine.

It's not possible to disable damage.
Resetting the vehicle is as easy as pressing a button.
You can also use the 'Recovery' feature to 'rewind' the car and reset it in place.

Why cant he just press R?

Is there a button that fixes the car and does not send you back to the spawn point because this whole "realistic damage" thing is a real deal breaker, but, It may get better once I have a wheel and pedals. Also, on the realistic damage, I braked hard once, and I got a 'engine starved of oil' warning, which is a bit unrealistic as sumps are made to deal with things like hard braking.

You can't.
Most damage is related to the physical condition of the car, and cannot be 'fixed' without resetting. For example, if you snap your drive-train or an axle, it's because they got physically broken.

The brake part looks really odd.
Engine starves of oil if the car is up-side-down usually, or whatever that does not allow the oil to run through the system anyway.

Teach him the button to reset the car for himself.

Just get an xbox one or the ps4 remote, and remap one of the colored buttons to the reset function.

Use the Recovery binding (on keyboard the default is Insert key).

Also JATO everything mod has vehicle strength slider. I use it with my friends kid

This thread is extremely old. For anyone searching for an answer to this, this could theoretically be done by disabling soft body physics but that would be my best guess and I haven't played with it much.

That's the whole point of the game, if you don't want damage there are tons of other games to play

[Eraser]

i think you can do it by enabling ,,simple collision physics" it is in settings
