Things to do for next version

[thelusiv]

kcid, thanks. About dashboard meters, I'm not sure if that will make this version, it might be good to shoot for that for next version. A shift light would not be terribly hard to add, though.

Here's an idea: why don't we work on cars being able to supply their own gauge graphics for this version, and for next version work on getting those gauge graphics into the dash.

Since you mentioned shift lights: First, not all of our redlines really match up with where the redline actually is. Custom gauges would help this. Also, currently if you over-rev the cars, nothing happens. Live For Speed does a very good job of breaking the engine when you do this. The car makes funny sounds, the sound of the engine changes, the car gets a lot slower. I think these things would be cool to add, plus some nasty smoke from the hood for good measure.

Following this line of thought, we should also add an option to turn on a rev-limiter so if you hit the redline, engine speed will drop a few hundred RPMs.
