This is an endeavor to build a truck with an "engine" and a transmission. By no means is it fully functional, but at least it has a shape now.

Controls have been remapped, with addition of in-scene instructions.

Long list of controls:
Page up/down - Open/lower hood
Home/Eng - Open/lower top cover of "gearbox"

Shift - Start/shutdown (cheesy) "engine"
Right - "Gas"

Up / Down - engage/disengage clutch.
Left - Breaks
7 / 8 - Parking break
Backspace - (cheesy) Reverse

Q / A - 1st in/out
W / S - 2nd in/out
E / D - 3rd in/out

Functionality notes:
The gears tend to skip, so don't be surprised.
The clutch might not work, so the truck might not budge, don't be surprised.
The hoods might want to travel up.
The hoods might get stuck when you let them fall too quickly.
The springs can be adjusted on top of the screen according to weight. I've had 4 Tons on it with no problems.

Question and comments (both negative and positive) welcome.

Looks really cool, only problem is that I can't use it.
Well, it would be (*%$ing awesome if it would work.

To be honest, I'm a bit burned out on it.
I've tried god knows how many ways to make it work, and simply said, circles suck for this purpose, and gears are even worse. So, from my experience, there is no way to make an Actual transmission work in phun. :(
I think I can help you with few advices:
1) Take a look on C-Gears - it's really best solution for gearbox
2) You can use only one key for every gear if set it as [toggle] key
3) Simplify gearbox - you don't need so many gears.
Good luck! Hope you'll make it.
