Alright, so to start off with basics, you get a car, random stuff, and a road that never ends outside, what do you do? First, if you got a front engine, nice, if you got a mid engine, rip.

Their should be 2 weights under the shelves, I'd take them and put them on the floor, one on the passenger side, one on the driver side, (if you forgot this at the beginning, gold works too).

As far as I know, part appearance does not really affect performance, but it is worth making sure everything looks as shiny as parts allow, since future updated will possibly make the rusty parts actually work poorly.

Okay, so after learning what you got, heres what I'd recommend taking along:

- Jerry cans
- 2 tires (can be assembled with rims & wheels lying around
- the oil can
- the bucket
- weights (their should be actual weights under the shelves, if not, take the gold)
-the silver canister that looks like it could explode (it can, and it is full of gas, around 30L)

things like air fresheners, the tiny boxes, and whatever else was not mentioned, are not useful for any means besides more stuff to fly out of the car.

What I have learned from driving the car is that.. it is like riding a bar of soap. What I mean by this is 2 things; little traction, especially at high speeds, and learn to use minor adjustments to swaying.

Turning, especially at high speeds is pretty scary sometimes, considering you might be going fast, their might be ♥♥♥♥ in the road, or you just don't know how the car handles yet. The easiest way to try turning, mainly at higher speeds, is to try to softly drift the car, as I mentioned it is like a bar of soap, so slide through the turns.

Braking: Well, it can send stuff flying forward, and at high speeds takes a little bit, depending on how much you have along with you, and how fast you're going will make the slow braking take longer. I recommend not driving directly towards any vehicles, houses, or gas stations while trying to brake, rather pull up alongside them, cause if you don't have enough time to brake, you will not only slam into the building, but you don't have the traction to turn away.

Weight distribution: The car is not damaged, your ♥♥♥♥ is just all on one side of the car, put things on both sides of the cars (hence why I said take the weights or gold along with you) to reduce or even remove the sway effect. This swaying is also reduced if you have a trailer attached.

I just thought of this one, but since this is early on, I should mention what to expect, just anything really:

What to watch out for on the road:
- Sand is sometimes uneven on the sides, keep to the road
- Rocks, trees, cacti, and small rocks like to linger on the road sometimes, avoid at all cost (cacti you can run into, but they might give your car a physics shunt)
- Sliding too much (If you begin to tokyo drift at extreme angles, hit the E brake and try to keep yourself from flying off the cliff)

What to expect physics to do:
- Having 2 trailers is a death sentence for your items and you, unless you like going about 30k/hr
- the siphon hose, do not have it with you unless you want it to whip you to death
- for the road, don't hit cacti if you can avoid it, theirs a chance of the physics engine to hit you back
- Uhh, avoid the small rocks too, those damn things, even though they are small, are still walls, you can die by hitting one

during the travel:
- Lots of road, tons of it
- losing your loot to random physics breaks every now and then (can be reduced by knowing how to handle the car over bumps, on turns, and what speeds your comfortable driving at.)
- loot, but only at the gas stations, garages, and houses

Bugs:

- Physics is janky currently, just be careful
- when logging in, your inventory loot will drop, your trailer will unhitch, and air fresheners will detach from where they were
- the siphon hose, just, no

This is a list of I think everything in the game, and the names I am giving these items;

The Useless Items:

- Small brown box

- Coolant units (the flatter one is for the front engine car, the more compact one is for the mid engine)
- Wheels (3 parts, the rim, the tire, and the hub cap make a complete wheel
- Front and rear bumpers (bumpers of both cars can fit on each other, but they do not fit properly)

= Comment below if I missed any items =

Well, their is not much to the game, not much to the guide, soo, I hope this gave some incite, comment details to put in, recommend things to make this better cause this is the only English guide of the game currently within the steam guides, and I am half asleep trying to make something up.
