GEARBOX AS A PART — The gearbox is now its own part, like the diff. Buy it, find it, swap it. No gearbox or no diff: the car stays in neutral.
TWO CARS IN DRIFT — Every player can have two cars out on the drift server at once. Fetch the second one at the registry, it parks right behind you.
TURBO KIT = ONE PIECE — Turbo and intercooler come, go in and come out as one piece. Split and rejoin it in your inventory any time.
EXHAUST SMOKE — Blip the throttle and the smoke shoots back, rolls out and rises. Heavy smokers now pull a haze trail behind them.
SMOOTHER DRIFT HOSTING — Less load on the host when several players walk away from their cars.
DRIFT PAYS 10× — Drift server sessions now pay ten times the cash.
New
Gearbox: five gearboxes with the same ratios as before. 5-speed $550, 6-speed $750 in every parts store, the base tent and the tutorial trader. Every gearbox fits every car. Wrecks can be missing theirs.
Drift: two cars per player. Fetch at the registry when a place is free. Both places taken: send one to the garage (Hardcore) or park it away (Fun) first – from anywhere on the server. The loan car counts as one of the two. You can also go on foot with no car out.
Drift RESET sends both cars home: car 1 to the car stand, car 2 onto the four-post lift.
Turbo kit + intercooler as one piece. You can't fit an intercooler without a turbo. Old saves with a loose turbo and intercooler still load, put them together in the inventory.
Co-op: guests can have as many of their own cars in the host's world as they want. Each recall costs the normal fee.
Improved
Exhaust smoke follows the gas pedal now, not the engine load, so a blip while standing still really shows.
Turbo sounds +3 dB, blow-off flutter a bit louder, exhaust pops and bangs −3 dB.
Stones on the road no longer give a fake jolt. Only real physics when you drive over them.
Pawn shop pays the full value of both parts for a turbo kit.
Fixed
Two-post lift: cars no longer hang tilted on the lift. The lift sets them straight.
Co-op: the vehicle registration office at the base no longer goes missing for guests.
