QUESTION How to get max gears of a car in python?

[FitbyBit]

I'm trying to figure out how to get "max gears" value for a car.
This AC API document describes "Gear" property, but there is no kind of "MaxGears" property.

Code for getting a current "Gear":

current_gear = ac.getCarState(ac.getFocusedCar(), acsys.CS.Gear)

Is there a way to get max gear's value?

You can use the following code to get the maximum number of car gears in Assetto Corsa:
max_gears = ac.getCarState(ac.getFocusedCar(), acsys.CS.GearNumGears)

This property GearNumGears returns the maximum number of gears for the car. You can then use this variable for any needs in a future script.

when i try this (ingame oc):

import ac, acsys, traceback
try:
  max_gears = ac.getCarState(0, acsys.CS.GearNumGears)
except:
  ac.log('error : ' + traceback.format_exc() )

this comes up in the log:

AttributeError: type object 'CS' has no attribute 'GearNumGears'

dont use ChatGPT for everything
snippet from "...steamapps\common\assettocorsa\apps\python\system\acsys.py"
there is no "GearNumGears" indeed
