This feature is supported as of BeamNG.tech and .drive version 0.22 to latest.
The Triggers section is used to position clickable boxes on vehicles which emulate buttons, switches, door handles and other hand-operated components.
This section cannot exist on its own. It needs an Event section, which determines the code to be executed, and TriggerEventLinks which links the two.

example value for Box type:
{"x":0.25, "y":0.05, "z":0.08}
example value for Sphere type:
0.25
Uses the intrinsic Euler -X -Z -Y rotation system, the center of rotation being the corner of the box that defines position.
example value:
{"x":0, "y":0, "z":0}
Uses the intrinsic Euler -X -Z -Y rotation system, the center of rotation being the corner of the box that defines position.
example value:
{"x":0.2, "y":0.26, "z":-0.05}

- action0 = left mouse button
- action1 = right mouse button
- action2 = middle mouse button
