📄 Config file: shared/lift_config.lua

This file configures physical car lift props (for raising vehicles). Dyno testing areas and props are now fully dynamic and created in-game!

Config.CarLifts = {
    {
        id       = "bennys_lift_1",
        label    = "Benny's Lift 1",
        model    = `nacelle`,

        maxZ     = 31.75,

        speedDown = 0.015,
        slowZone = 0.2,

    },
}

Each car lift entry defines a physical lift prop placed in the world.

Dyno PropsCopy Anchor Link

Dyno Props are no longer hardcoded into config files! You can now place them dynamically anywhere you want using the Mech Creator interface.

Placing a Dyno PropCopy Anchor Link

1. Open the menu using the /mechcreator command.
2. Select your target shop and go to the Zones tab.
3. Click Deploy Spatial Zone and choose Dyno Prop.
4. You will load into the Gizmo Editor. Use your mouse to position the dyno perfectly where you want it.
   • Use W, R to swap between translating and rotating.
   • Press LAlt to snap it flush with the ground!
   • Press Enter to save the dyno prop, or Esc to cancel.

Setting Up the Testing ZoneCopy Anchor Link

To restrict players from testing a car from across the room, you must also define the physical space where testing is allowed.

1. Re-open /mechcreator and go to your shop's Zones tab.
2. Click Deploy Spatial Zone and choose Dyno Zone.
3. Create a Polygon (poly) or Sphere (sphere) around the area immediately above your Dyno Prop.
