I had this idea. I tried to find something about that, but I was unsuccessful. Also didn't find it listed in the rules or whatever that is so here we go.

My thoughts were about these LCD displays that almost every car has these days. There also are cars on RoR which have these screens.
Usually though they are supplied with still pictures or aren't supplied with anything at all. I had this idea that wouldn't it be possible to take the minimap
from here

and add it there,

so it would look like something like that:

The point is that it would work exactly like the minimap but it would be a part of the vehicle. I believe that it should be possible
to create such a screen cause I have seen something similar in DS9's submarine.
It would be an interesting feature and would give cars more of a character.

What I am thinking after reading the subreddit thread by Davded, is that the forums should have a button next to the report button, that the users can click that will mark a post as spam, and when enough users have reported the post as spam, it will become hidden and say this post has been hidden due to numerous spam reports. and an option to show the post.

I really think this would be a great addition to the forums and it will let the users help the Moderators and Administrators to clean up the forum of the useless spam and bumps of old dead threads.

EX: Someone posts on an old thread with no contribution, multiple people click the mark as spam button, and the post gets hidden, instead of them bumping the bump to tell the person they are bumping. ]]> Feature Requests disloyalpick http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104539-Request-for-Forum-feature-Please-read-I-think-it-would-be-a-good-feature settable driving paths for vehicle http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104505-settable-driving-paths-for-vehicle?goto=newpost Tue, 07 May 2013 00:42:51 GMT I think it would be a great improvement if you could set a path for a vehicle to follow, you would draw a path for it to follow, and set the speeds for it to go, so that you could drive a different vehicle while it follows the path you drew.

So here's a little "idea" on setting it up:
-Have multiple songs tied together by a soundscrpit file
-Have the music randomizatble by who knows how
-Make a function where you would press, say, 1 and it would play soundscript one (one station) and so on, and then 1 to shut it off.

On the other hand, this would get annoying in multiplayer pretty quick lol. ]]> Feature Requests Off-Roader http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104498-Idea-for-Radio-Coding What about an ESP? http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104479-What-about-an-ESP?goto=newpost Sun, 05 May 2013 18:37:37 GMT I've heard that RoR have anti lock brakes (anti blockier system :p), and a traction control.
So what about a Electronic Stability Program?

I hope it is possible. So you can drive a new car more realistic. ]]> Feature Requests Anti Blockier System http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104479-What-about-an-ESP New type of truck file, a .tractor http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104441-New-type-of-truck-file-a-tractor?goto=newpost Sat, 04 May 2013 06:11:56 GMT I've been thinking about making some different heavy machinery, but there is no real way to make the throttle on heavy machinery behave correctly since most have a lever that you just push forward to increase the RPM and it stays at that level until you Idle it down, or it begins to auto idle in the newer equipment. So I was thinking, what if there was a sort of .tractor file with a throttle lever similar to that on the air plane dash, but retained most of the other characteristics of a .truck file?

I think that it could make operating tracked machinery a bit easier, since you wouldn't have to worry about the RPMs increasing spontaneously like most of the tracked vehicles seem to do with conventional gears. ]]> Feature Requests DarthCain http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104441-New-type-of-truck-file-a-tractor SSAO in RoR? http://www.rigsofrods.com/threads/104418-SSAO-in-RoR?goto=newpost Thu, 02 May 2013 22:26:54 GMT So i just saw that it's possible in ogre3D, Why not put it in RoR?


(imported from here)

I've tryed to put it but as soon as i load the terrain it crashs, i just don't know RoR's variables and definitions..
