So, here I was, digging through my old Cataclysm source files, looking for something I worth porting over or sharing, when I stumbled upon a couple of unfinished projects with some merit to them. Namely, vehicles. Given that there isn’t enough stuff to bother making a thread for, I decided I might just as well start a thread for such inconsequential things. What I found was twofold - hardened and armored vehicle parts for my never-to-be-seriously-started MilSpecTech mod, and a couple of vehicles to go with it. So, here it is. ```auto // name VEHICLE ("electrocycle"); // o // ^ // # // o // dx, dy, part_id PART (0, 0, vp_frame_v2); PART (0, 0, vp_seat); PART (0, 0, vp_controls); PART (0, 0, vp_engine_motor);

In case you wonder what the ‘\_ar’ stands for, it’s “armored”, which, as far as I remember, mostly means only that the durability was increased about five-to-tenfold. Also, some parts, like tank plating, hardened reactors or turbine engines, are included even though they aren’t used for anything right now. Originally, I wanted to diversify these things after some more conscientious souls made the “military base overhaul”, which, alas, still seems to be the music of far future. A word of warning: I haven’t tested the new files yet. There shouldn’t be any problems, given that it’s basically just a copy-paste of something that worked before without issue, but it’s possible there’s a mistake or another that I missed. Originally, I wanted to include both of the source files as simple attachments, but there are some errors with that I can’t be bothered to work around. So, I guess I’ll start my stay on this forum by double or triple-posting. Edit: Did some playtesting, made some adjustments to the vehicles. Mostly swapping minireactors for storage batteries. ---
