Considering Diesel is around the low 80s in terms of octane, you probably could do a theoretically functional diesel engine in Automation currently, if you use low quality fuel.
Honestly wished Automation scrapped the tycoon aspect and went all into car building. Like it is already so good and if they put more effort into it they could perfect it.
I feel like most people have the most fun messing around with the car and engine builder, rather than the tycoon aspect. Despite it being the main intention of the developer to push the game towards.
@@shmid9823 I think that the devs focused on the car building to bring in the player base, then switching to polishing the tycoon before fleshing out more of the building. That seems like the most logical course of action to do, and makes the most sense based on what I've seen in the game.
Agree...Get rid of the tycoon stuff and give me diesels, 2-strokes, and the ability to create my own interiors (seats, seat layouts, and dashboards and instruments)
19:03 high torque is due to you having a 6.7l v8 with a narrow bore and long stroke, diesel engines all use that to be torque monsters. i have a 3 cylinder 181cid tractor that makes 45hp but 1082lb/ft of torque at 1700rpm
@@Stevethe11th no it's a tractor with massive pistons that weight a lot which creates rotating mass. caterpillar did it with old D2's back in the day, google that pistons size and you will see why they are high torque if you know your physics
Not to be a total smartass "that guy" but the reason horsepower is so low while torque is so high early in the RPMs is because horsepower is just a function of torque and RPM. So while 300 nm at 500 RPM is the same amount of actual push as 300 nm at 5,000 RPM your Horsepower figure will be much higher because of the increased RPM. Loved the video though, good watch
So torque and RPM are related to hp output? 300nm at 5k produces much higher HP, conversely 300nm at 500RPM will output much less hp. But, not the only factor in making HP?
@@gram. HP is just a straight function of torque and RPM. They are the only two factors in horsepower. Think of it as any changes you make affect torque, and in turn torque affects HP.
Holy smokes I didn't know it was possible to make a car that accelerates and grips the road that well in BeamNG. Everything in that car just seems perfect. Respect.
That would probably be amazing to drive, perfectly smooth power delivery with all that torque. Probably accelerates the same all the way through the rev range, but actually makes nice noises unlike an electric car.
Hi Flux! I just wanted to say your vids make me really happy and I always like to watch them. I also wanted to suggest a vid if you dont have any ideas one day. Build a truck that you would see driving around a city (like a ford F-150), but it can secretly do drag races. Kinda like a sleeper.
So, you got that amount of torque out of it because of the VVL, your normal Cam Profile was set to have it's peak power at maybe 2-3000rpm, if you go extrelely high compression you can't quite get the same kind of cam profile because the less agressive the cam is, the more octane the Engine needs, it's relatively realistic.
I feel bad for not knowing but what is the name of that type of intake? Like the tubes just sitting on the top of the engine and not a carburetor or something.
Also with the wheelspins, you can get a rear wheel line lock, lock the rear brakes at 0% and then hold down throttle and brake (sometimes have to do a clutch drop) to do a burnout
When you have super low compression like that, lower the fuel mixture. As long as you're within your octane rating, lower the fuel mixture as low as you can.
Hi i always watch your videos, and because of you i bought beamNG. I have a question, have you set the audio quality in beam to highest, because it really makes the audio better.
I made a 6.0:1 compression engine and it makes around 670ft-lb at 600rpm and its a v8 with 1000hp and it has a really smooth torque curve. Respond if you want the specks for the engine. I made it to simulate a diesel truck engine but I made a version that revs up to 7500rpm
Got an idea to turn your Off-road Rhino into a tractor pull car. need to: -Max power -Max size real whells and the tiniest fronts possible -Tow hitch -Don't care for corners or any driving distance longer than 350 feet.
@@automotiveflux although automation is a little funky when it comes to compression and its effects, the massive torque and even curve has a lot to do with the VVL you've got an RV cam at low rpm and a mud bog cam as you get higher in the revs.
"that is a ridicules torque curve" yup.... thats what ya get from a 6.8 liter engine this is exactly why you saw LOW compression LARGE displacement V8 in the late 70s and 80s and it...somehow...passed the new smog tests.... (our smog laws are backwards.... you burn more fuel, but have cleaner emissions.... ) the meme is... caddy made like an 8.2 liter.... and it only made 160hp and sure.... only 160 hp..... but it made like 600 foot pounds of torque from 800 to 5500 rpm..... ya could take the steepest mountain pass in a 3 ton boat.... and these >5.0 liter (305 cubic inch) v8s would do that.... with out shifting out of overdrive..... the 6.0+ engines probably didnt even kick the torque converter clutch off.... TLDR ever hear of the GM/buick 3.8 (aka 3800) engine? 3.8 is big for a v6.... but it will get 32mpg pulling a damn park avenue because it never has to rev up over hills, or passing engines with high HP numbers.... but turbo lag, or no "base motor" torque will have to downshift more gears (2 or 3, vs 0 to 1) higher RPM burns more fuel (generally.... highest load at lowest RPM = best mpg) then again..... not many people pull Montana mountain passes at 75 to 85 mph... in a clapped out old Buick.... 273,000 miles and still on the original trans..... knock on wood
like... im a mechanic and gear head... have a 68 impala with a 400 (6.6)....my dad, a 72 Plymouth satellite with a 440 the 400 is around 8.5 to 1.... and the 440 is 10 to 1 yet the 400 will make 390 foot pounds at 2000 rpm 265hp peak no hp, but it will grunt.... keeps up with that 440 for the first half block (the 440 makes 425hp.... its pretty fun to drive)
My everyday challenge with automation ; i pick a real engine block and i tune it to squeeze everything from it and test it on the drag strip ! VFR is a nice concept, but a VFD (vehicle for DRAG) would be very cool !
The difference between the 0 cam profile and the higher profile is only 2hp off idle... if you look at the efficiency curve at that RPM it’s really low because no work is being done... it takes an astronomical amount of torque to make any useable difference in HP ( aka “work” ) at that rpm
Technically ethanol has an equivalent octane value of 100 antiknock index. Aka really good straight up fuel. Granted it has roughly 30% less volumetric energy than gasoline but it's stoich value is around 9:1 while gasoline is 14.7:1 which means it makes up that energy with more fuel volume. That's why with the advent of E85 being popular people are daily driving 1000+hp twin turbo v8's and making full power on e85. So "moonshine" is no joke.
Idk what you drive, but if you wanna work on cars get a dsm. I've got a 94 laser and the balance shaft belt snapped and got tangled in the timing belt right after I got it. Broke down two more times a month after I fixed it. Nonetheless it's a fun car and I've learned a lot from it. Not to mention the mod possibilities
i challenge you to build a funky car with the aid of cheat engine for example: 0 compression, 5 bar turbo, 50cc engine, 10 mm exhaust (if youre able maybe 12k+ rpm, i havent managed to do it)
I don't think 480 Nm of torque is that crazy for a honkin' 6.7-liter engine. For reference, a 2016 Camaro SS, with only 6.2 liters, makes 350 ft-lbs, give or take, at 2,000 RPM, which is 475 Nm... *at the wheels*. However, with a car as light as this, 350 ft-lbs at the crank is plenty I am sure.

They are called ITBs (individual throttle bodies)
automotiveflux Thank you, I've been caught on that for a while.
A car with no compression is like a thrash metal album with no bass. Looking at you, ...And Justice For All.
Also with the wheelspins, you can get a rear wheel line lock, lock the rear brakes at 0% and then hold down throttle and brake (sometimes have to do a clutch drop) to do a burnout
only if ur rear wheel drive tho
also you can drive manual with dct, you just gotta shift it into the 'm's first
When you have super low compression like that, lower the fuel mixture. As long as you're within your octane rating, lower the fuel mixture as low as you can.
