Week 46 Mercedes eCitaro G Fuel Cell : lighting, programming, rear doors and other fixes
This week's update focuses on improvements to the Mercedes eCitaro G Fuel Cell model, including the addition of a blinker sound effect, a new door system, and adjustments to the blinker behavior and chassis.
The creator worked on implementing a "click-click" sound for the blinkers, but encountered issues with the buzzer buzzing constantly. A new door system was developed using strings instead of chains, resulting in a slim and reliable mechanism. The doors now open and close effectively, although some wobbling persists. The blinkers' behavior was also updated to match the real-life bus, with automated parking lights, left and right blinkers, and bottom side lights. Improvements were made to the chassis, particularly the front section, to lower its height and adjust the front suspensions.
The creator plans to further develop the blinker sound and add more features in the coming weeks. They are also focusing on strengthening the front section of the chassis to support the interior build. The post concludes with an expression of gratitude to those who read the update and encourages feedback and suggestions.
For those interested in building their own LEGO creations, having a brick separator on hand can be incredibly useful.
Hello everyone, This week, i did a lot of work in real life, which i'm happy to be able to do.

(it's 1am as i'm writing this ) I tried to implement it inside of the bus but for some reason something doesn't work as expected...
