Miracle Karts Progress Update #2


I put together a quick video showcasing the engine temperature mechanics and weather effects.

Fuel and airflow can be controlled by choosing air filters, spark plugs, and exhaust systems. Running your engine hot leads to misfires and backfires that can unintentionally slow your kart down. A hot engine can be cooled by letting off the gas and smooth pedal control. I am making sure these elements can be mostly ignored by casual players but they have a significant effect on your race at higher difficulties.

Weather and ambient temperature will also play a small role in your racing performance. Currently rain is just cosmetic but will significantly affect tire performance.

There will be a video devlog out in the next week going over some of the other recent changes to the project. Until then, thanks for stopping by!
