I've started working on a decal system. This will take over for late year headlights, taillights, stripes, door grooves/gaps, and anything else you can think of that is flat or has depth.

It's preliminary work. Right now the decals load and attach themselves to the mesh. In the future I'll make them selectable and moveable and resizeable.

But for now, I'm going to switch to minor bugs that will be included in 1.14 Early Access release.

I spent the weekend taking care of missing logos, As of right now I've done 71 additional logos, and have roughly 40 more to go.

I will probably make some better player logo soon as well.

Tonight I was able to knock out a few bugs:
New Trim/Model Year Speed bug
Engine/Gearbox weight units wrong
Production line exploit
Duplicate listing in Megamenu

I'll keep hitting the bug list hard until Wednesday. Hopefully the logos will be done by then as well.

Prestige system has had some minor modifications, the image ratings should change more often per year now.

Vehicle weight, fuel mileage, rpm's, torque, and a few other specifications have been tweaked.

A number of broken number displays have been fixed.

Will start back on the AI logos, hopefully I can get the remaining 25 for the Full AI settings done before I switch back to coding!
