Yea of course it is a “software” feature every motor in a ev is controlled by software that switches power electronics. “Dissconnecting” the phases of the motor so it wont recoup while is spins is still neutral. Or is “neutral” only a thing that a automatic transmission can do? If i put my manual out of gear is it then not in neutral? People dont want the manufacturer to install a clutch to physicly dissconnect the motors from the drivetrain but they want to be able to let the car roll without it braking by recharging the battery or dumping the power as heat into the powerstage.
And by the way yes most evs still habe gears just with a fixed ratio because if the motor was directly connected to your axle full motor rpm would be way faster than your max road speed you can drive.
Im not a gamedev but a electrical engineering student and i am currently in my one semester project phase in a company where i am programming a 3d visualization for welding robots. First time working with imgui and opengl and the feeling when you wrote your first shader and a 3d model is rendered to the screen is priceless.
