CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission)

Description
EXAMPLE BUILD: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2907622808

A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is an automatic transmission that can change seamlessly through a continuous range of gear ratios. This contrasts with other transmissions that provide a limited number of gear ratios in fixed steps.

This design combines the 2 existing CVT designs, one with dual modular clutches and one with tank tracks. This design has the compactness of the modular clutch design and the rigidness of the tank track design.

Instructions:
Red: Output
Blue: Input
Orange: High torque-low RPS line
Green: Low torque-high RPS line

On 0 input it fully opens the orange line, and on 1 input it fully opens the green line. Make sure your input stays between 0-1. Modular clutch input should stay at 1 at all times.

YOU MAY NEED TO MODIFY THE GEARBOXES TO SUIT YOUR OWN RATIOS

Let me know if there are any issues and I'll fix them.

Take your engine RPS and convert its range to 0 to 1, that's one way to do it

Can you make an example of a vehicle using this? Having some trouble getting it to work.

You can make a manual mode using numerical counters and pulse logic blocks to make a range of switchable numbers from 0 to 1.

can you try add manual mode that simulates gears like some real cars have?
