Description
BACKGROUND
Buckel, America's largest (fictional) automotive manufacturer, has been making cars and trucks since 1922. The line-up of cars and trucks ranges from luxury vehicles to moving vans, and everything in between.

The Buckel Rodeo is a full-size consumer pickup truck produced since 1974, capable of heavy towing and transporting payload. This particular unit is a single cab/long bed configuration, in SPC trim, which features a tuned supercharged V8 engine and adjusted gearing ratios, for heavy-duty towing. It also includes mood lighting, digital displays, and an advanced towing package. The towing package allows extremely heavy-duty towing, and uses a specific towing gear, plus electric drive-train assistance.

Thank you so much for the in depth look! I will have to look into this, something is not right!

Addendum: I played around with the ECU sliders, disabling the safety, increasing max throttle and max speed. However, although the initial fuel manifold flow-rate is much higher at close to 0.5, it still eventually reduces to 0.2 and can't get past that.
Zorro327 Mar 18 @ 6:23pm 
@454SS So in the first (normal) run the air manifold caps out at 1 and the fuel manifold reaches about .36 or so at top speed, in performance mode. In normal mode on the first run, the air manifold is capped at 0.6 but the fuel manifold is uncapped, reaching about 0.23 but slowly reducing even at high speeds. Slowing down and turning, the fuel manifold becomes capped at 0.2 in performance mode. Switching to normal mode, the fuel manifold is further reduced to a cap of .12 while the air manifold is capped at 0.6.

From what I see, the fuel manifold starts at a high uncapped level, but steadily reduces even while driving until it reaches a set cap. This is what causes the loss of power, and there's nothing that the driver can do to overcome that cap again, except by despawning and respawning the vehicle.

@Zorro327 Interesting! I will have to look into it as it seems a bug with my ECU... Would you mind connecting two dials (each to the air and fuel manifolds) and tell me what the numbers are during you initial drag race and afterwards?

I've run into an interesting bug on this and your other cars. I've been testing their max speeds, and this one got to over 130 kmh in regular mode and to an impressive 236 kmh in performance mode. However, after decelerating, it felt like the power was cut in half. After that initial drag race I wasn't able to break 50 kmh in regular mode or 130 in performance mode. I don't know what possibly broke, but the engine wasn't delivering power like it should have, and it wasn't overheated.

Nice truck! Works great, but can you check your mobile distillation train car comments for a suggestion on a new build/vehicle modification? It’s nothing urgently needed but I think it would still be cool!

Looking forward to the new stuff for sure!
454SS  [author] Nov 20, 2024 @ 7:41am 
Thank you :) This one is nothing ground breaking but I like the simplicity! Next releases will be new things!

Cool creation as always. keep it up 454SS!
