Fixing the Semi Tractor's Bulk Capacity, Possibility of adding 2 Cargo Space

Clocky U.A.C Union Aerospace Corp. Sunday Driver Renegade Group: Members Posts: 27 Joined: Jul 3, 2015 Hello earthlings! With the arrival of the Coronavirus, I shall ask a question for all to answer... The Semi Tractor. It might not be the best vehicle, but it works. Now, it has a little problem, though. See the screenshots below. You see it? I think that you do see what I mean. It lacks space for a driver, as it says, it has 18 Cargo Space left, you cannot put a driver into the vehicle, can you? Adding 2 more poins of Cargo Space would not only help the Semi Tractor have more space for smaller weapons, but it would allow it to use the biggest engine in the game, 9.4L, of which it has space in the Engine Bay for. I hope this is understood well, and I look forward to seeing if this will be accepted, and updated in the next version of the game. Edit: Right, as I thought... The links weren't clickable, but back when I posted this you could still copy and paste them to your browser and then be able to view them... Now they really are dead links... But yes, as mentiond by Synyster Gates, it is missing exactly two Bulk to insert a driver into it. ......................... vet wv deathrceL1 combatL1 Posted Mar 23, 2020, 3:04 pm Last edited Mar 25, 2020, 12:47 am by Clocky

*Synyster Gates* Sleeper Cell N7 Racer Mutants Faction Group: Marshals Posts: 200 Joined: Nov 27, 2009 I see no screenshots, just broken links, however-- I don't own a Semi, but I know that if you're looking at the vehicle editing window then you need to show 20 cargo to fit a driver. If you're in the standard viewing window, any number equal to or above 0 means you can fit a driver. If it shows a negative value, you have no room for gangers. That being said, if having a 9.4L on the chassis means you can't fit a driver then I would support this motion. ......................... vet wv deathrceL1 santa2 paintladder marshal ped1 Posted Mar 23, 2020, 5:42 pm

With this discovery, I'd like to suggest to further improve this chassis' design by saying that these should be able to fit 9.4L engines unexposed. I feel like this would become an excellent chassis for fun shenanigans if you could slam a 9.4L in there and cruise around. ......................... vet wv deathrceL1 santa2 paintladder marshal ped1 Posted Mar 23, 2020, 5:50 pm

Fun, maybe, but it's got quite janky physics collision responses if I recall. So you'd have to promise not to harrass me if your semitractors keep toppling over and bouncing around. ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Mar 23, 2020, 6:21 pm Last edited Mar 23, 2020, 6:22 pm by *sam*

(preferably unexposed because style can lead to destruction) As long as it has space for a driver (and a little extra ) I am fine with using it any possible place. At least 20 for a Machine Gun, though... Oh, and Sam, of course we know how badly the Semi Tractor behaves, both on the track, and anywhere else... C'mon, let us have some fun! Besides... I already am used to the so called "next turn, ghost flips." jumpscare. ......................... vet wv deathrceL1 combatL1 Posted Mar 25, 2020, 12:56 am Last edited Mar 25, 2020, 12:57 am by Clocky

*The X Man* Better Off Dead Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Game Manager Posts: 2,207 Joined: Jul 25, 2012 Problem would be solved if clocky would put a 7LV12 in it. It would be lighter and faster and have an extra 40 bulk that could be used for your driver and a weapon. But something tells me clocky didn't think about this ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Mar 25, 2020, 5:46 am

Valiance The Vanguards Darkwind Guru Civs Faction Group: Storytellers Posts: 1,171 Joined: Jan 15, 2008 I can see the logic of not having to use a super-rare engine in order to put this never-used chassis more fun. I'm not sure that the best solution is for someone to have a spare million or so hanging around. And I reckon most people would choose not to waste an expensive engine on a bouncy folly. ......................... vet combat1 wv ped1 northernsummer Posted Mar 25, 2020, 10:18 am

Its bulk seems far too little given how big one of these things is (and how they often have sleeping space as well). ......................... vet wv zom pvp4 cont community deathrceL1 marshal pvp3 pvp2 Posted Mar 25, 2020, 11:01 am
