transmission variables

hello there since OMSI is becoming more and more closer to be released, I'd like the asked, is it possible to recreate a transmission torque converter lock up in OMSI.. There is a bus around my area which has the zf transmission which locks up in the first gear which I would like to replicate... Does OMSI has an similar system implemented on their buses with the Voith transmission?

The easiest way to model a lock-up is to seperate the first gear in two: The hydrodynamic 1st gear and, once the lock-up is closed, the mechanical 1st gear. So a 5HP-bus would actually have 6 gears in OMSI.

Thank you for your reply!


Is it possible to define the hydrodynamic and mechanical sides of the gear? I know that on the hydrodynamic side, the engine rpms are like stalled until it reached a certain rpm... If the driver were to take his feet off of the throttle, the RPMs will return back to near idle, whereas on the mechanical side, the RPMs will stay near the same rate.
