It would come in handy if it would be usable and I think it would be a nice feature to have a spare tire.
I don’t think that it would have any disadvantages, but I don’t know if this has anything to do with the spaghetti coding.
I believe the tires need to be actual tires if they are to work with the socketwrench and popping. If this was an actual tire it would spin when the car moved
I believe if Nelson coded a new type of tire, lets say, a “dummy tire” that is just an entity that can be interacted with independently from the car (like normal tires) but doesn’t actually move or contribute to the cars driving/movement, then it would be possible.
I feel like this could lead to various other things, if implemented and mod creators were allowed to use “dummy” interact-ables on cars.
Implying that having a chance to cease total collapse of human civilization within the era where 1 mistake will create such event and having a chance to move the shelf in a map of an old game you’ve created yet likely no longer able to do so easily while working on another game had the same logic, factors and impacts on others behind.
