Can you make it so we have to start vehicles with the start key that way when we press the key to shut off the engine pressing forward doens't start it up again.
You mean that it could be started with the forward key the first time, but when the user actually manages to find/use the start/stop key, it won't start via the forward key anymore, right?

Can a park button be assigned now or will manual gears be able to select "PARK" because it can be finicky on hills to actually get a vehicle into park....
Hmm there should be a park button (space), but to tell the truth I haven't tested it long time.

AND when you shut down a vehicle while driving it just keeps going. No power loss at all and just plays the start sound and moves on.
That can be simulated by adding a constant braking force, in t817.js it's done (brake += 500;)

where did these lines go?   steering:20.0, steering_ecf:2, centering:10.0, centering_ecf: 2
return {mass:mass, com:{z:com}, steering: ...};

Still no lateral slip by default.. Tisk tisk.. I will add it.
By default it's 0.5 of the longitudinal, when unspecified.

1. Yes, that is the idea.. Perhaps a UI popup displaying the controls for a few seconds fading out after the first load of a vehicle (disable-able for people that get use to it).

2. There is an emergency brake bind but it hasn't worked in a while and it never locked, it was only a momentary (which is fine for an E-Brake)

3. Yes and no. If you are holding the forward key it doesn't actually stop the force.

4. I added them and it works fine. What values does it use if you don't have those things defined?

5. Is it a percentage of the slip? or its own value? I think I have had the slip at 0.0 and the lateral still functioned.

If you are holding it while getting out?

A multiplier of slip. When it's not specified, it's set at default 0.5 (of the main slip value). With main slip 0 .. it should all slip.

Could a setting in the eng.cfg or in the Misc options be set to choose Imperial or Metric? I personally would use MPH and Kelvin for temperature.. Just to be a boss.

I can be hot or I can be cold depending on the mood I'm in, ;D. We should have "Newton" force added somewhere as a separate gauge so we can see how much force is applied when a tank runs over the Lamborghini on the moon when pushed with your little finger from a small distance.

Even Top Gear UK uses MPH.. There are just some things that sound better in Imperial. Metric has no rhythm.. "That dude is Six Foot Four!"  or  "That dude is one hundred and ninety three centimeters!"..

Heh, that depends on the culture. Six Foot Four tells absolutely nothing to me, could be a dwarf :)

I suppose you are talking about the HUD, right? Cause every vehicle will compute and show whatever it wants, while the physics simulation will always be metric. You can make a vehicle skin that picks what it shows etc.

Yeah the hud. By chance how fast does the First Person "8" character walk? It seems like 8-10m/s!

When using the road tool, if I create a road, then exit the tool and come back, if I try to ctrl + click and add a new end point, it tries to create a new end point from the start/other end of the road. 

Is there a way to create based on the currently selected point/the other end of the road?  I might need to take a look again.  Maybe I missed something?  I'm pretty tired at the moment though, so it very well could be user error.

Currently it always appends new points to the end, it cannot add them to the beginning. You can only use the Ins key to subdivide the road nodes and then stretch them, but obviously that's good just for small modifications.
