Toot toot! More component variations for the hardcore followers. This time, Alternators.

What does an alternator do? Well it keeps the battery charged by converting mechanical movement into electrical energy. In the game, we display this as Ah/s (Amp-Hours per Second). Different alternators have differing amperage and weights. If you're looking for speed, you'll want to find a smaller alternator. If you've got a lot of electrical gadgets hooked into the truck, then you'll be on the look out for a higher amperage alternator.

My current alternator. I could do with swapping this out.

Car Jack

Additionally, the car jack is now stored under the hood of the truck. This is for authenticity but it's also a big quality of life improvement too.

More goodies to come, I'm just grinding away at modelling and implementing these different components. Each one adds to the range of possibilities and build diversity.

Cheers,
Greg
