I finally managed to win the rally.  I got lucky with the opponents time though. I've seen 1. places in the mid 4 minute range, which I'm not sure is possible to beat. Still pretty pleased. Did it without ever going to the mechanic as well. Car was mostly stripped, and had all the go fast bits.

I still can't get the mechanic to do anything with my car, I've waited a week and it's still in the driveway unchanged.

Yeah unless you are paying to fix the body the car is always going to look the same. You order from his desk paper and then the next day it should be done assuming it's a weekday. If he has his paper back on the desk then he is done with your car. If the paper is still gone he hasn't fixed your car yet.

The game needs female player character option so that when you take the car to the mechanic, he goes "*sucks air through teeth* this is gonna cost you love."

That'll make it harder to piss out the window of a speeding septic truck, but I'm up to the challenge.

This game owns. It's special how it just drops you into the kitchen at the start with an exploded car, but there seems to be so much detail to the amount of poo poo you can do. It's impressive how much you can learn about how a car works by playing computer games. I think learning the Car Mechanic Simulator series helped me out a lot before playing this.

As someone who worked on older cars a long time ago I gotta say it bothers that you dont do any turning of the distributor for the timing. I remember doing this way too much on my old 350 rocket. Anybody relate?

I drive to the shop to pick up a new games essentials: motor oil, fan balt, coolant, sausages, milk, beer, gasoline, diesel. Flush with my shopping bags I take the van for an easy drive home on the highway. Rear ended by techno viking, spiral into tree, grusome death. Repeat early list. Front end collision with car passing a truck in oncoming lane. Repeat earlier list Drove van around the lake, arrived safety. gently caress the highway. gently caress the van. Went to sewage job to get spending money. Fell in sewage pit. I tried using the tractor to raise the car, but it was just easier to wait until the car had wheels on and then just push it into the garage to use the pit access. Probably one of my favorite odd games of the year.

hatesfreedom posted:Repeat early list. Mine went something like: - Save up money before ever finishing car to get all the performance accessories - Get last item I need, start car build - Takes forever, worth it - Drive to inspector, fails because of performance items - Drive all the way back and remove them - Drive back to inspector - Fails again because of wheels Apparently performance wheels aren't up to standards. They weren't even the slicks! At that point I took a break for a few days. Now I keep the jack and the wrench set in the trunk.

I noticed that too. Did the save-load thing to skip the nights, but the weekday was stuck on Tuesday. It finally switched to Wednesday when I slept through the night, so it might be that sleeping is the only way to advance days properly.

I got drunk IRL yesterday and was driving like a champ in this game. I think thats the key. I also had a dream last night that I bought an engine block and some pistons for a van. For some reason I was worried about how hard it would be to get the old wiring harness out of the old van. Ive never owned or worked on a van. This game has bled into my psyche.

I get the feeling there's more bolts to tighten when it comes to engine-to-car connections. Edit: Actually there's two front bolts. Now I get the squealing everyone else gets. Edit 2: Squealing stopped. Now to figure out how to get this thing actually moving. And maybe figure out how to reverse. widespread fucked around with this message at 23:06 on Nov 10, 2016 |

foreign MSC fans might appreciate this Rube Goldberg contraption even if it's from a later era. Remote sauna: When you call to the cell, it rumbles down the slide made of a cut plastic bottle, knocking over a bbq stick holding up an ice fishing skimmer which is attached to the oven's timer and loaded with ball bearings. This makes the timer turn clockwise until the bearings drop off, at which point the ice hockey puck acting as a counterweight lets the timer tick back.

I was getting the squealing, if I choked to the right level and pumped the throttle I could start the car, roll it back and forward, then it'd die. I tried giving it a few ginger revs with the choke all the way out, only to have a piston vanish into the stratosphere. Downloaded a save as I wanted to see what it's like. Made the highway, got up to 140, and suddenly the loving thing dies. Can't start it. Got out, and watched a few Saabs rear end it, before technoviking front ended the car sending panels and parts everywhere. Alright then.

After not able to move the Satsuma despite going into different gears, I waited until I got five sewage jobs. After the first, I did the age-old "just drag the hose behind you" thing. I might have lost it? Or does it disappear after a full tank.

If you save and reload it will be back on the truck.

I stole the muscle car by towing it away with my septic truck but the steering gets insanely sensitive. I tried to adjust those little sliders in the controls but I think it only went the wrong way and I can't fricking figure how to click them the right way!!

It's just impossible to drive on the dirt roads at any reasonable speed. My headlights on the datsun no longer work, and despite doing a full list repair at the mechanic, they still don't work. What?

Steering wheel animations never seem to match up very well in driving games when using a controller/keyboard. That being said though try and drive in 2nd gear. I couldn't drive that car at all, it was like driving on an ice rink. Someone suggested driving in 2nd and that seemed to make it handle a hell of a lot better.

I think he just made that car drive very terribly. It makes no sense for it to get such bad speed wobbles at 60mph (I assume that car is in mph).

Welp, said gently caress immortality and decided to go PERMADEATH. Also learned the value of driving a van at breakneck speeds on the shoreline. Now, before I even touch the car, should I just go right to the upgraded poo poo? Or should I make the car run first before upgrading. I'm thinking upgrading first since it might be pain in rear end in a top hat to replace most of the replaceable poo poo. JB50 posted:Sometimes it snaps off and falls off into the septic tank. If you save and reload it will be back on the truck. So I should not be lazy if I have, say, five septic jobs all the way to the gas station?

The replaceable stuff is pretty easy to swap on after the engine's built. No reason to wait on finishing the car while you save up for those parts.

Build the car stock first. You can't pass the inspection with upgraded parts. You can't take part in the rally without an inspection. Once you pass the inspection, upgrade everything.
