RIDE ALONG GTA UPDATE v1.1

WHAT'S NEW SINCE 1.0

Your crew

- Everybody gets in and out by the doors, you and your passengers: no more popping

  in and out of the seats. In from the passenger's side, you slide across the seat.

- On foot your passengers walk around the car to their own door, wait, chat, smoke, look around,

  with smooth changes between what they do.

- Orders on foot: Xbox pad A or keyboard G.

      tap   = "wait here" / "follow me"

      hold  = "get in the car"

  Look at one of them to give the order to that one only. They answer you.

- Out of a two-seater, your back seat friends wait in the street and come back with you.

- The camera keeps your view (and your zoom) when you get out.

The world

- People in the traffic's cars: a driver, sometimes a passenger and a back seat.

- Steal their cars on foot (F next to it):

    - you pull the driver out (through the window if the car is locked, glass smashed first);

    - you can grab a slow-moving car too;

    - from the passenger's side you go in and across, the driver is held then thrown out;

    - the robbed driver runs off, phones the police or chases you.

    - the others run off.

- Everybody has a voice of their own : the robbed driver, the ones running

  off, the one chasing you, your passengers in a car you just stole, the answers to your orders.

- The traffic's people are thrown out in hard crashes and can be knocked over on foot, as you can.

Menu

- Simpler: "Your crew", "Behaviour", "The world", "Drink and smoke"; the fine tuning (bus seats,

  where each passenger sits, steering wheel) behind "Advanced settings".

- One switch for being thrown out / knocked over (you and the traffic), one choice for what your

  passengers do when you get out, sunglasses for everyone, nobody or seat by seat.

Performance

- Everything is prepared while the map and the traffic load: no more stutter when a traffic car

  comes near or when you steal one.

- The BeamNG mannequins are switched off while the mod is on (and back when it is off).

GOOD TO KNOW

- The Xbox A button may also be bound to something of yours on foot :

  change one of them in Options > Controls.

- "Wait here" ends when you get back in a car: they get in with you.

- Some mod cars have no collision surfaces inside: a ragdoll's arm or leg can go through.

- In very violent crashes with several bodies the physics can rarely blow up: reset (R).

- "Driver and passengers in the car" at the top of the tab switches the whole mod off and on.
