== Object position display ==

To see what you are doing better, you can enable {{old button|show masses|paleorange}}{{old button|show frame|paleorange}} to display coloured boxes corresponding to object masses. For more control over this display mode, use the buttons on the bottom right corner of the editor: {{old button|frame|paleviolet}}, {{old button|masses|paleviolet}}, and even {{old button|wire|paleviolet}} if you want to position masses relative to your 3D model, instead of the frame.

== Options ==

You can set the engine's {{old button|Crankshaft axis|paleviolet}} to be transverse or longitudinal, and choose a clockwise or counter-clockwise {{old button|Rotation|paleviolet}}. Those affect how the engine's torque will move the car.

You can also choose whether to {{old button|Include seat masses|paleviolet}} for the driver and all passengers.

== Objects ==

The following objects can be positioned:

* {{old button|Driver|palecyan}} affects both mass and where the camera is placed in the game. If you enable the {{old button|Front passenger seat}}, it is positioned symmetrically to the driver.
* {{old button|Back seat|palecyan}} (optional) is for the rear passenger seats. You can set the maximum number of passengers using {{old button|Capacity}}.
* {{old button|Engine|palecyan}} (the engine's mass is determined entirely from the engine editor)
* {{old button|12V battery|palecyan}} (optional) has an adjustable mass using the {{old button|Mass}} arrow buttons.
* {{old button|Fuel tank|palecyan}} allows you to move the fuel tank. To set its capacity, head to the [[LFS Editor/Vehicle Editor/Mass|Mass editor mode]].
* {{old button|Spare wheel|palecyan}} allows you to add up to two (symmetrical) spare wheels, change their visual appearance (or hide them while including their mass), and set their orientation (when visible).

== Statistics ==

The bottom part of this editor mode gives you the total mass, weight distribution, and position of the center of gravity.
