Variable: WEATHER_GRIP

const WEATHER_GRIP: object

Defined in: packages/sim/src/vehicle-classes.ts:256

What the weather leaves on the ground does to the tyres (GAME_DESIGN §5.7: gently): the share of a tyre's grip, its side grip and its friction circle alike, left on a road soaked through (wet), on loose ground soaked to mud (mud) and under a full cover of snow (snow); a road half wet keeps half the loss. Dry ground is untouched (1), so the dry envelope vehicle.test.ts pins never changes.

Type Declaration

mud

mud: number = 0.68

Loose ground (grass, earth, a dirt track) soaked to mud.

snow

snow: number = 0.6

Under a full cover of snow, paved or not.

traction

traction: number = 0.5

The share of that loss the engine's traction feels: a car still pulls away in the wet and in the snow, spinning its wheels a little sooner, rather than crawling.

wet

wet: number = 0.8

A paved road soaked through.
