So here is a new entity i made. I call it the easy engine.
Now you can make cars with no thrusters at all!

----------------------------------------------
We now have a SVN!
Download the SVN for the latest version.
Link: svn://svn.gmod.de/enginemod/
The svn is sponsored by gmod.de.

What's new in the SVN version?
Easy engine has support for multiplayer.
You now have to connect a vehicle to start the engine, the connected vehicle is the only vehicle you can start the engine with.
You start the engine with jump.
Other players can use your engine by using the connected vehicle.

----------------------------------------------

Basically it's an engine you can steer with you movement keys. You can put parts on such as a radiator, turbo and fuel tank. You can also tune the engine. The engine also have effects and sounds.

If you want to know more about it you can take a look at the video clip.

To install it simply extract the "Eeasy Engine" folder to the addons folder("..Steam\SteamApps\STEAM CCOUNT NAME\garrysmod\garrysmod\addons")

Instructions:

Please note:
That having EP2 is not a requirement for using this addon!
This addon has nothing to do with wiremod.

How to connect things
Just touch the engine with the part you want to connect and it will automatically connect the device.

The EP2 engine
You can turn the engine on and off by pressing jump and walk at the same time. Why did i use this key combination?
Because you don't jump and walk at the same time very often and because it's a key combination, there is a less big chance that you turn the engine on by mistake.
You can control the engine by using your movement keys ("a", "s", "d", "w"). Don't try to turn the engine on before it's welded to a vehicle.
Use turbo by pressing the sprint button, the turbo will be enabled if you have installed the turbo on the engine.

The Airboat engine
It's the same as the EP2 engine. I just included the airboat engine so people who doesn't have EP2 can use this entity pack.
For some reason the ariboat engine goes faster than the EP2 engine, i guess it has something to do with weight to force ratio, the code is the same.

Fuel Tank
Without the fuel tank you can just use the engine for a small period of time before it needs to be refueled.
The engine has a fuel capacity of 500 units and the fuel tank will increase it to 5000.

Turbo
This part will automatically be screwed on the engine(no rope connection).
The turbo part will enable turbo when using the engine. Of course the engine will use more gas when you use it. Turbo most affects the acceleration. The turbo will overheat the engine and the engine will turn red. If the engine gets to hot it will stop or it will break (the engine will turn black if it's broken). If the engine just stops you can start it again.

Exhaust pipe/muffler
When this part is connected the exhausts will come out from the exhaust pipe instead of right out from the engine.

Radiator
If you have turbo installed on the engine a radiator might come in handy.
The radiator will cool down the engine faster and you can use turbo more.

Wrench
If the engine is broken you can repair it by touching the engine with the wrench.

Tuning
You can tune the engine up and down by using the tune up and tune down tools. To tune the engine up and down you simply touch the engine with the tool. You will hear a sound from the engine which will tell you how tuned the engine is. A up pitched sound means it's tuned up and a down pitched sound means it's more tuned down. If you tune up the engine to the max it might not make any difference in speed or acceleration(don't know why, it should), i believe there is some kind of maximum force that can be applied. The tuning also affects how sensitive your steering is.

Gas Can
Fuel up your engine by touching the engine with the gas can. You will have to touch it multiple times so it will take a while to make it full if you have a gas tank installed.

Gas Pump
Just grab the hose and touch the engine with it, it will fill the tank instantly. Put back the hose by touching the gas pump with it and it will be put on place automatically.

You can also find the instructions in the readme file.
