Wheel API Issues

I'm not a scripter or Modder and I don't fully understand how it all works but this most recent update broke the API for wheel power override. I love this game and have spent 1700hrs playing it and have been following it since 2014. I have specifically been using Whips skid steering script for a many of my creations over the years and its now impossible for them to fix the issue since the script cant see the API. I have attached what Whip said themselves since they definitely know more than I do about it.


The reason I have come here with my concerns is I have been dealing with an issue that was submitted 3 years ago with SE1 regarding newer GPUs and the grass texture causing memory leaks until it crashes. There is no fix for that issue and I have delt with it by turning off grass because I can let go graphics for the gameplay but I can't play the game if the game itself isnt working. I understand that its a 3rd party script but I can't imagine it would be hard to fix the API issue. I'm not sure though but I just really want to know that this issue gets looked into at least to see if it fixable.


"Whip" Keen has broken how wheel overrides work for in-game scripts. In their attempt to make wheel overrides more intuitive, they have introduced a system that is opaque to in-game scripts and introduces an entire host of edge cases that are not possible to account for with the current state of the in-game script API. This script can not be fixed until the MyWheelInversions struct is exposed via the IMyMotorSuspension interface.

Thank you for your time if you see this Keen
