We should simulate the battery. Every car would have different generator specs, and their batteries would have different cranking amps, etc. This way, if you run out of gas, and keep trying to restart the car, then it will run-down the battery. :thumb:

The starter would melt away anyway before the battery goes empty.

I'm sure Netkar is going to have this, so it must be possible.

If it was going to be in LFS then you should be able to restart the engine manually numerous times but the Formula V8 only once or twice (if stalling is implemented)

No, sorry Sir, the Devs are BUSY, not BORED, you misinterpreted that. ;) It's not that they don't have any ideas left that will really bring LFS to a new level.
