Hi, thanks
I'd like to do a 4T engine with  4 gears, but the structures of files has changed from my last visit...so I dont know how to tell KRP  to use this engine with this chassis

Birel-Rotax 42

The bodywork is now distinctly separate from the chassis. This means that Tony Kart pods can be run with a CRG chassis and any other combination you could think of.

As far as linking an engine to a certain kart, you may want to reference the KZ1 engine files. As far as I know, there are three variations of each engine "i", "m", and "v" which represent Iame, Maxter, and Vortex. However, as I did with the Rotax, it is possible to only use one engine for all karts. For each engine you add, you will have to add a 'kart' folder that indicates which kart is allowed to use this engine. I believe the 'kartname.ini' file will give you the options to say which karts can be used. One folder for each kart.

I can make a video tutorial if needed. It's hard to explain without the visual aspect.

thank you, not necessary the video, I confused "karts" with "bodyworks"
