@DaDrifter
Just to add to what @ItsJustCurtis said:
If the value doesn't exist for any vehicle, you just add it in manually

Example:

    <Item type="CHandlingData">
      <handlingName>ADDER</handlingName>
      <fMass value="18000.000000" />
      <fDownforceModifier value="4.5" /> <!-- added manually -->
      <fInitialDragCoeff value="6.000000" />
      <fPercentSubmerged value="85.000000" />
      <vecCentreOfMassOffset x="0.000000" y="0.000000" z="0.000000" />
      <vecInertiaMultiplier x="1.000000" y="1.300000" z="3.500000" />
      <fDriveBiasFront value="0.200000" />
      <nInitialDriveGears value="6" />
      <fInitialDriveForce value="0.320000" />
      <fDriveInertia value="1.000000" />

AI bots are gradually taking over the support to the community. I'm assuming the next step will be upload state of the art scripts and mods. Then they will replace the admins. Once that's in place the Terminators will be unleashed, both in GTA5 but also in real life.

@JohnFromGWN Please stop replying to bot messages, it's stupid and does not help at all. It'd be more handy if you could just report them and that's it as you seem to do from time to time. Thanks.

@Reyser you're calling me stupid?

No, he's saying that reply was clearly created by something like ChatGPT, so it's kinda silly to reply to these automated responses. In other words, the best way to combat this A.i. investation, is to demonstrate some 'i' ourselves.

@JohnFromGWN If you re-read my initial comment you'll notice I was mentioning the action is stupid, not you. Meimeiriver explained it well.

A.i. investation

I think you mean infestation? I'm trying to inject some levity and humor in what are otherwise bland and repetitive threads culminating in boilerplate advice and recommendations such as install the right gameconfig.xml.

Having said that, my comments on AI providing support on forums are based on evidence not conjecture.

Finally it would be wonderful to have clearer guidelines on what is considered stupid versus acceptable. I constantly feel I'm walking on eggshells whenever I post here. Beyond common sense and profanity, the distinctions between what is acceptable and what is unacceptable seems to be the flavor of the day. I also understand the English language is nuanced and subject to interpretation even by those with a high degree of fluency.

I've reread my comments and consider them light rather than stupid. I don't know who reported me but obviously someone who prefers more pedantic postings. To all those I offended, I apologize.
