So, I made a motorcycle from scratch. Installed a headlight (several times now) but I can’t use it. Used to be you would use the vehicle button (^) and then select control vehicle or something like that. I no longer have that option.

How do I turn on a headlight? Also, it’s not the cargo space’s fault, because it didn’t work before that, I literally just put the cargo space on there.

I don’t know for sure but you might need a dashboard.

Hey, good job, it worked. Didn’t know that was a requirement, though it does make sense.
