Well, Phil has a god point, but it could be just using the arror keys could
be clutching as well.
If the Thurder game has an option for either auto, then yes, I would go with
Phil's point.
AS Tom is wanting the game to be as close as the Thurder game.
In fact it could be a advance driver settings.
For example of this you would have to get out of the pits on your own.
Smiles, which can be realy hard for novices.
Certainly Race Way is not going to be a jperfect match for the Thurday game,
as Tom describe adding keys to hear certain thinks.
And not to mention the Pit Chief saying when a turn is coming and other
sound effects indicaters.
Tom got a task on his hand.
To make the playable for those who dreamed of playing it with it being like
Thunder , and yet to build it in a way to allow the game to make a profit in
purchases.
Having the game able to allow the gamer to grow with it, as being first a
novice and then when getting better try a few options.
ONe thing Tom don't want the game to be to hard in a way, many gamers wn't
want to purchase it.
Race Way is going not be a game where you achieve one level with success and
able to move on.
Instead Race Way one needs to learn how to drive with a keyboard. Even
though there are stages in the game to master, is the reason why a set of
class of gamers in the game is needed.
Let the gamer be comfortable at what ever level and options available.
Once there get the hang of it they can try new things like a clutch
transmission.
And this may not have to be in verion 1.0 as it can be an option in the
game.

Hi Thomas,
I know it's too early to talk about but it would be interesting to have
the arrow change gears but if you also held down the shift, or clutch key
you would get an extra benefit.
Either faster shifting, or less ware on the transmission.
The first would improve your speed a bit, while the second would extend
your car from having a breakdown.

Hi Phil,
Well, the design of the game is based on a manual stick shift, but I
guess I just assumed using the up/down arrow keys to shift up/down was
easier than holding down an extra key. to simulate using a clutch. As
I said I pretty much copied the Nascar Thunder keyboard layout as is
from the game without thinking much about changing it. I suppose
whenever the game gets into testing we can think more about issues
like this.

Hi Thomas,
I noticed you did not include the clutch in your key selections for
Raceway.
Are you planning to use one?
If so, the shift key held down while using the up or down arrows would
be my
choice for shifting gears.
