Suggestion: Water cooling and engine overheats!

[The Fent Führer]

Okay i have a suggestion which i think would make the game a bit more difficult, How about we add in a radiator, which will cool the engine. If the radiator is not functional or is at a low durability, it could start leaking water, creating steam and blocking vision, and when it completely emptys the engine would rise drastically in temperature and overheat, disabeling it.
The radiator could be semi-optional, as you could drive without it, but the engine would overheat quite quickly, and would suffer aditional wear and tear.

I thought the two stroke engines in the game were all air cooled?
A radiator would require a whole new engine type. One with 'power'. lol

[The Fent Führer]

Thats actually quite true..
Oh well

[BelBel]

what about adding a new engine type that goes very fast,but need to be cooled off by the radiator?

[The Fent Führer]

Perhaps yeah, and it would have drastically increased fuel consumption too

and add a type of carburetor that works just like the engine, super economic, but adds heat to the engine aswell it would be so cool!

In the end of the Trabant's production lifetime (around 1989 to 1991), there was the Trabant 1.1 which had the VW Polo engine. It still looked like the same 601 that was around since 1961, but had some obvious design differneces on the outside.

HEre is how the engine bay looks like, and possibly why it might prove to have some design issues for the devs.

Basically, maybe it could be a new, very expensive upgrade for the Laika.

It could be a line of expensive upgrades, each one costing significantly more then the last..
