Overview
This guide details how you unlock all the components for your Chassis, Engines and Gearboxes, as well as the year that each car type becomes available.This guide is a list based on the components.xml file pointing out the car type name and the year it becomes available. So if this ever gets out of date, you can easily check the unlock dates for yourself. This guide is just for convenience, since searching the forums doesn’t always immediately give you the answer you’re looking for. August 3, 2019, v1.25 RC1.EDIT: I went blind in one eye staring at Notepad++ all the time, so I added all the components too. They’re sorted by year, or skill in case two release years are identical, or the name, if two release years and two skill requirements are identical. The skill requirements always refer to the relevant component’s design skill (e.g. Manual gearboxes require a certain Gearbox Design Skill, MacPherson Struts require a certain Chassis Design Skill). November 26, 2020, v1.25.0.11 (HF 8).
