Realistic Diesel Start V1.4.1 fs25-mods

Description:

Tired of starting an engine with a single key press? Realistic Diesel Start transforms ignition into a true diesel sequence, applicable to every motorized vehicle. MULTI-STAGE STARTING
A quick press of the engine key: ignition ON, dashboard lights up with the authentic sound of a real ignition key.
Glow plug pre-heating, indicated by a small light next to the speedometer. It varies depending on the weather and engine temperature: in deep winter, it takes longer; with a warm engine, it’s almost instant.
Hold the mod clutch (Alt+L) and turn the engine key to crank. Cranking before the glow plugs are ready may prevent starting and cause slight damage: the starter continues to turn while holding the key, and persistent attempts can help it catch.
After a cold start, the engine idles for a few seconds before responding to throttle input. The thermometer is blue when cold and fades out at operating temperature.COMPRESSED AIR (trucks)
HUD pressure gauge. The compressor builds air while the engine runs.
Air pressure decreases when parked: leave the truck sitting to build air before departure.
Out of air, spring brakes engage and lock the truck: you don’t lose your brakes, but you get stuck.
Low-pressure buzzer. With Realistic Brakes, a trailer with air brakes fills from the truck’s air system.INTERACTIVE CONTROL
The dashboard key follows the same sequence: a click switches the ignition on, holding the click starts the engine.SETTINGS
In ESC > Game Settings: set clutch to start, and lights without ignition.
Console: rdsConfig (damage, air system, timings) and rdsHudPos / rdsHudSinADS / rdsHudReset to adjust the HUD position.COMPATIBILITY
Compatible with Advanced Damage System, Realistic Brakes, Diesel Fuel System (bad fuel complicates starting, with the same starter sound), and Interactive Control.
Supports keyboard and gamepad. Multiplayer and Dedicated Server modes are supported. AI workers are unaffected.
Not compatible with other ignition / cold start mods (Real Ignition, Cold Start System, RVB’s glow plug module): disable those. Credits: the ignition/contact concept was inspired by “Real Ignition” by Guner348.
Made with passion for realistic farming simulation.V1.4.1.0
Update over version 1.4.1.0.NEW
When the engine fails to start, the starter continues cranking while holding the key, instead of the previous cough. Every 2.5 seconds of cranking counts as a new attempt: warmer glow plugs increase the chance of success. Release the key to stop.
Authentic ignition key sound when switching ignition on and off, plus a soft pedal sound when pressing the mod clutch.
Interactive Control: the dashboard key follows the mod’s sequence. A short click turns the ignition on, holding the click starts the engine, and a click with the engine running stops it. Previously, it started with a single click, skipping glow plug pre-heating.FIXED
A failed cold start no longer runs the engine briefly and then kills it: the starter turns but the engine doesn’t catch.
The glow plug indicator was dim next to the Advanced Damage System; it was drawn under the speedometer background. It now shines brightly.
Icons no longer overlay menus and dialogs (such as Real Fuel Consumption reports).HUD
Warning lights are now the same size as those in Advanced Damage System, and the air gauge background matches the game’s black HUD.
The idle icon is removed. The thermometer is blue when cold and fades out at operating temperature.
Default positions are set for Advanced Damage System 0.10, with alternatives when it’s not installed. Compatible with savegames from version 1.4.0.0. Supports multiplayer and Dedicated Server modes.
