car engines

Recommended Posts

I'm not sure on being able to build an engine piece by piece, but if that were to become a thing, I'd believe it would be for Mechanics. I'd also see it being able to fit for civilians as well as you don't have to be a mechanic in real life to build an engine.

I dont feel like something that in-depth will be implemented, at least for the first release. I think the Devs are more focused on getting the core game out. As for hiring other people, if you own a towing/mechanic business in game, you can hire and task anyone and everyone who wishes be join your company!

Business ownership allows players to own factories and small business, giving them control over what items are manufactured and sold. Items created by a factory must be delivered to their destination city where store owners in that area can decide what quantity and type (formal wear, casual, punk outfits, weapons, etc.) they wish to list in their business. Some default items are always available in all stores for when market demand is not met.

Also : If you head into the Other Careers topic, you can see what people are talking about as well as the Board Room which showcases people advertising their businesses  they plan to open upon release!

I think he's referring to tuning your car and getting upgrades.

Yeah, that might be something we'd have to wait for a little later towards the vehicle module release to find out. It would be more immersive to drop an entire engine in the car rather than fiddling with a slider, but I could see it happening either way. Were still quite a bit out till the Vehicle Mod though.

I can't say for sure, but I am pretty certain that building the engine from the ground up won't be a thing and it will be more like GTA.

I think that would be pretty advanced, so I doubt it.  There will most probably be mechanic jobs, but not sure, as it there may be AI to get your car fixed and to buy cars from, so not sure what place a mechanic may have in the game.  They could have stats like repairing cars faster or something similar?
