How to stop your truck from stalling out in Rigs of Rods 0.4.8

[DannyMackey]

Currently, most all trucks being used on 0.4.8+ stall when idling for less than a minute.  In order to fix this issue, we need to edit the .truck file.  Following these steps should make this process as simple as possible.

 

1. Pick the truck you wish to fix and copy its .truck file somewhere outside its .zip file.

2. Open the .truck file in a text editor (Notepad, Notepad++, etc.) and locate the engoption section.

 

3. Change the entire engoption section with the following:

engoption
1, c, 5000.0, 0.1, 0.1, 0.1, 300, 800, 0.3, 0.0

4. Save the .truck file and place it into the .zip for the truck.

5. The truck should not stall when left idling now.
