how do you make it so a gear can't be deselected?

i want to get the new RACING TRACTOR gear to stay permanently selected

There's a property, ManualActivationOnly (or something like that). WIth this only a script can active / deactive the tool.

If I understand your question correctly rather than putting it in startertools but in startercharacter.

"New racing tractor gear"

First: What is that gear?, Do you think we all know everything about FreeModels?

Second: You din't showed us a complex description, Just a few words.

Third: Thanks that you dint explain anything, seems like you DINT put effort into trying to figure out how to do this.

Fourth: Making a game where 99% of the stuff is freemodels wont get you anywhere.
