special garage physics & person physics

[Kimmaz]

I have buildt the satsuma perhaps 50 times. I have NEVER finished building it without any damage to the body and body panels. I have broken the windshield a few times too. Perhaps I build too fast or to careless.

Different objects behave differently. I think the garage at home should have some special way of preventing the car from flipping, jumping and moving when you clip car pars through the body. perhaps the floor act as a magnet or car parts dont move the car body when they collide while you hold them in your hand.

Response: just delete meshsave file? Well I don't use msc editor and I don't use any "cheat" mods (make game easy mods), and I would like to build the car without having to even think about "should I delete the meshsave when I am finished building?".

Possible sollution: - Fleetari repairs your car (resets meshsave file) for free once if all parameters are meet. Car body is damaged, is driven 1-10km(not driven far random number?) , you have meet fleetari.
-He calls you and want to help you build the car or something, next time you sleep anywhere he comes to you and deletes the meshsave file and you wake up to a undamaged car. (not a free repair at shop, since it can be saved for later)

I have damaged the car by simply running past it, around the corner/headlights. I did not feel or see any stopping, I did not bump into the car, only moved alongside it very close to it. no hands out or anything. I think this should be limited to when you move into the car and not damage car when side-scrape it without feedback about being too close.

Only a few parts have collision when assembling the car if you built it that many times you should know what ones to be careful with by now. I have built the Satsuma from scratch atleast 5-6 times in the past couple weeks with no damage at all. I even push it around before the tires get put on.

The only questionable part for me is the removal of the half shafts. However if you r-click > l-click fast enough it seems to avoid damage.

- A year or more ago I would have agreed with you (when you could total your car by walking into it), but in the current game state its very difficult to damage your car while working on it (outside of human error).

Yes, those things can happen during building but except windshield and broken rally suspension it's not a big deal. Just delete meshsave to fix the body as it looks bad obviously and it's damn expensive to repair.

One other thing to add, you don't need MSC editor to delete the meshsave (its in your save folder AppData\LocalLow\Amistech\My Summer Car). If you damage your car before you even drive it by mistake I wouldn't call deleting the meshsave as cheating.

Even though you don't want to use mods one exists that makes the sledge hammer able to repair very slowly. In my opinion it is self-balancing because you can only repair to your last meshsave (once you save the game the damage not repaired is permanent).
