Working Manual Transmission

A test vehicle I made showcasing a system for manual transmission for cars that I came up with. The actual model is far from perfect (this is my first car design) but I wanted to share this system that I designed. Feel free to look through and use the code in your own builds but please leave an upvote if you liked this.

    Hey man, i’m trying to put this into my kart, but the gears dont max out on certain speeds, it just keeps going until it reaches the wheel’s maximum rotational value, so how do i create a speed-limit to each gear?

    i also made it work on my mustang. all i did is i transfered the whole car as a sub assembly, then i pasted the car on this build and i manually delete unesscessary parts XD.

    @Red920 It should work, as I successfully transplanted it onto a pickup truck I made.

    @Red920 Yeah you have to copy over the variables as well, manually, unfortunately, because the code is reliant on those, and when you create a new vehicle, the variables dont carry over so you'd have to copy and paste them.

    @Griffon1 do you have any idea how to make this work on other builds? cuz i tried pasting the funky trees code from the engine, but it doesnt work (the engine dont respond).

    I know this was made four months ago, but Ive been looking for a model in where to go for coding a transmission, and it seems Ive found it.
    That being said, this controls surprisingly well, with good gear changes and gear ratios, although I am normally too small brain to use manual transmissions. The second gear is a bit jank though.
    The car, aesthetically, really fits into the late 1930s aesthetic, so dont worry about that.
    I'm definitely gonna spotlight this, since this is an underrated build.
    Many thanks!
