Vehicle Show and Tell

[quote=“Canalan, post:718, topic:207”]

Introducing the Surprise, Motherfucker, a little RV I built from scratch and a lot of looking at a wrecked one near my old base, and my first car entirely. It can go over the speed of sound thanks to the massive V8 I ripped out of a cop car. I don’t think that should be a thing, but it’s pretty radical. It feels like it should be heavier too, since unloaded it only weighs a little over two tons. Also been slowly installing solar, found an electrical engine too, which isn’t even on right now. Got all the little vehicle stations you can build.

When I find a new place to settle in, I’ll probably rip it apart and remake it! Already learned better ways to do things.

Oh, uh, three storage batteries+truck battery, two gas tanks, one water tank.[/quote]

Hell of a start, but it doesn’t have that much space for a ‘living out of’ truck. I’d recommend some stow-boards, or just making it wider. Still, hell of a good job for a first vehicle, I think it beats my first vehicle…

EDIT: Found my first post for the RMCC, which was like my fourth vehicle build.

[spoiler][quote=“EkarusRyndren, post:208, topic:207”]Sometime tomorrow I will finish my greatest vehicle yet: the Ryndren Mobile Command Center (or RMC) for now, I do not have pictures or stats but I will leave you with this…

To the dev who upped maximum vehicle size you have my eternal praise and thanks; I must now return to cannibalizing a city to build the RMC.

EDIT: IT IS FINISHED.

THE RYNDREN MOBILE COMMAND CENTER (RMCC)

Weighing in at 28,331 LBS with all of it’s tanks empty, 37,631 LBS with it’s tanks full and no cargo, I estimate it can exceed 25 Tons with the right cargo, possibly more.
Top Safe Speed of 131 MPH, engines redlined (and frankly the frame would probably split.) 1460 MPH
Acceleration: 13 MPH Per Turn
Wheels: 42 28" Wide Wheels
Fuel Consumption: 52 Units Gasoline per Turn (A little over a quarter of a gallon), 7 Units Energy per Turn
Fuel Capacity: 72 Gallons or 144,000 Units
Battery Capacity: 40,000 Batteries or 4,000,000 Units
Hydrogen Capacity: 36,000 Units
Clean Water Capacity: 1,200 Gallons or 12,000 Units

Attached in the front is the closest thing I could come to for making a plow. it’s insane length means turning will be more or less impossible, so the only solution is of course to go though whatever might be in my path. I can’t wait to drive it. Took the better part of an entire city to build the damned thing.[/quote][/spoiler]

…I might build it again.

Thanks, I did pretty much just copy the stock RV though! And yeah, I’m starting to hurt for space, my inner organizer weeps when I have to put certain things together. SMII will be wider and longer. Just have to find more composite plates.

Nice RV m8. 8/10 would stop by for lemonade

You people, you just love making super crazy vehicles. :smiley: This is why I love you people.

Not me, I make boring Quadbikes, I tried making a large-ish vehicle but gave up halfway through.

Though I’m not really around enough to be considered “you people” so it doesn’t really matter.

i liked creatin one title bikes with 1000 volume but today i prefer to upgrade a solar car what i find on roads or apc if i want to create gasoline vehicle

One tile bikes? How the hell do you know which direction you’re going?

little guessing game but after draging vehicle its allways facing in direction where is dragged so it was realy easy to drive this and now is even easier because X is telling direction where i go (it was broken before)

What’s this X?

It’s an option that shows which way the vehicle is facing.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT

I never used that option … but i guess when driving arround with an office chair it might perhaps … mebe come in use.

One time I made a little car by welding together an office chair, three shopping carts, a food cart, and a motor I got out of a desk fan. It was fun to drive around, at least until I ran out of battery.

Lol driving a modified desk fan like a boss xD

I’ve tried my best to make that buggy those guys give you in half life 2.

It has begun…

I’m now the proud owner of a flatbed truck and a car, both operational and tucked away in my garage. I’ve also got alot of spare frames and sheet metal lying around. Soon as I can find the recipe for the welding rig, I’m in business. Already have my portable battery supply created and out charging up in the sun, and I’ve even got another storage battery I found in a car near my former base, it’s got something like 71k charge in it.

I’ve been happily using my procured flatbed to shift my base over to the garage. Just need to set up some defenses and luxuries like a fireplace and some bookshelves and I’ll be golden.

Pardon the double post, but that’s it… I’m through sharing my progress with you lot! :wink:

Every time I come in here proud of my accomplishments, I then die shortly thereafter * sniffle * Bloody Shocker Brute and a pair of Zombie dogs got me… I shall have my revenge! One day…

So i found an electric car … did drag a welding rig from a garage to it. used my hacksaw to cut it off… then dug taped it to the electric car which had 2 solar pannel intact at that time and went from there.

I luckily punched a random zs face in who then droped under the hood for me so i could attach my chemistry set.

It runs on 9 advanced solar pannels . Never had any problem with energy.

Currently three V6 Diesel Engines, this may change. Haven’t added all the Solar Panels as I wanted to be able to take the picture. All the flooring are floor trunks. Only one Cargo Carrier but I’ll be working on making more of those. Have a v12 from a sports car that will go in it when I start running low on Diesel. Have seven additional Storage batteries I need to add (along with cases). Have a down filled pillow and blanket on the bed. Don’t know what else to add… Have plenty of extra plating will start plating the whole thing.

I have a question: how much .223 bullets from a mil-spec turret can (military composite armor) take before being destroyed? Anyone up to test?
