Vehicle Additions Pack (Updated December 8)

Quick patch for the dropbox’d version, adds TRACKED flag to tank treads, so you can steer with them. I didn’t clean up the cutting: 0 entries though, they aren’t hurting anyone, and that would have taken more time and effort.

Malkeus · 2016-01-04T10:48:53.000Z

I made a bug report on this forums bug report area. Not sure if the problem is this mod or not, but worth mentioning.

In short, vehicles are not showing or making noise.

I didn’t have time to test every vehicle, but several vehicles show this problem. The sports car, the police car, the mobile gun station, the swat truck. A few others as well.

All in all it seems bugged and needs some attention before anything else is built on top of it.

I’m getting this odd debug message, which states "Unexpected shortage of ammo whilst firing [weapon here], every time I fire any of the followings:

[ul][li]acid puffer[/li]
[li]gel puffer[/li]
[li]gel spiker[/li]
[li]gel razor[/li]
[li]frost lancer[/li][/ul]

On the test vehicle it contains all fuel cocoons filled to the top and a gel battery at 100% charge. At this point I can’t even use those turrets without having the debug message annoying me.

Most of those use water, the spiker and razor use blob feed.

I think the debug message might be a side-effect of the multiple ammo use ability; I’ll look into it.

Oops. I totally meant to say all fuel, water, and feed cocoons. On the vehicle it has all the available liquid vessels filled to the brim.

It looks like the issue is caused by something that broke the FIRE_X flag that is used for weapons that use more than one charge. It seems an update broke its compatibility with vehicle turrets.

Not something I can fix on my end unfortunately, but I’ll look into it.

TheKobold · 2016-01-18T11:10:39.000Z

Is this the same vehicle additions pack that is in the game as a mod? or a separate one that i should download?

Blaze · 2016-01-18T12:43:34.000Z

The pre-packaged version if pretty different from this one; a whole slew of changes.

Random_dragon · 2016-01-18T15:14:23.000Z

Yeah, the Github version hasn’t been updated in quite some time. And chances are this version will be out of sync and possibily missing changes/updates. For one, no idea if the tabpocalypse has been preserved on the Mediafire version or if it’s finally been removed. XP

Noctifer · 2016-01-19T00:24:38.000Z

What happens if you use both?

Random_dragon · 2016-01-19T00:35:51.000Z

Noctifer:

What happens if you use both?

Since they should have the same folder name and modinfo indent? :V

Noctifer · 2016-01-19T01:11:25.000Z

That can be edited of course.

123nick · 2016-01-19T18:28:26.000Z

is the patch/hotfix for the tracks so they can have the track flag packaged with the download on the OP? oh, an any outstanding issues /bugs known for usage with build 4198?

Blaze · 2016-01-22T22:45:53.000Z

Yes, I added the “TRACKED” flag to the OP-link.

Also fixed the issue where heavy-weapon turrets wouldn’t fire.

The errors that you get from firing blob turrets isn’t something I can fix, but it only happens when you manually fire it; and blob turrets are all capable of auto-fire.

Well, I decided to make a modular solar farm for my electric vehicle which used all of my solar panels, and went for a big fold-able vehicle. Seemed like a good idea, since I could store it in a cargo dimension. It ended up getting too heavy, and I couldn’t pick it up to unfold it. Parts are locked inside of it. Welp. Great mod, I’ve been using it for a while, and it really spices up use of vehicles.

TheFlame52 · 2016-01-25T22:36:23.000Z

If I have near unlimited battery power, what turrets would you recommend?

Logrin · 2016-01-26T08:35:12.000Z

Slime lancers are AMAZING

As is the slinger. Though neither use battery.

That one made from the electric zapping CBM is pretty great for clustered zeds…
