the hauler is fucking huge

visual nest
#

Its shorter tho

humble geyser
#

no

#

its not

#

its really not

#

before it was the same length as my scanvan

#

and my scanvan is longer than the normal one

visual nest
#

Heightwise

humble geyser
#

now, the hauler is longer than my scanvan

#

it's pretty tall

visual nest
#

Yea, but cant help reach any fireexits

humble geyser
#

idk what fire exits your reaching with the cruisers roof anyways

visual nest
#

Assurance

humble geyser
#

you can't reach assurance fire exit just from roof of cruiser

visual nest
#

With the eject button u can

humble geyser
#

that's different lol

visual nest
#

True

humble geyser
#

and ain't nobody using the car on assurance

visual nest
#

.....

#

Yea...... nobody......

humble geyser
#

literally the worst moon for driving

visual nest
#

*cough *cough

humble geyser
#

either way, you can take the big ladder up

visual nest
#

True

humble geyser
#

unless you're really trying to minmax

visual nest
#

And wb the one on the other rock planet. I forgot name lol

humble geyser
#

offense?

visual nest
#

Yes

humble geyser
#

ig

#

offense is a pretty terrible moon all round

visual nest
#

Fair

#

I just still dont see the hauler being used more than the cruiser with its price

humble geyser
#

and even when i'm using the version-55 cruiser which has an ejecto seat, i park at main anyways

#

i think people didn't use the hauler because of its unwieldy physics

#

and how unstable it was

visual nest
#

Personally it was becausd the cruiser was cheaper and had terminal/ejector seat

#

The hauler just felt like a truck without those features

humble geyser
#

again i'm open to ideas :p as long as you aren't going to suggest me like "scandal pls add a self destruct button that nukes the entire map and kills the whole thistle nebulae"

visual nest
#

Yea ik, but idk what u can add

humble geyser
#

i feel like my scanvan has some good gimmicks, but i wouldn't add them to the hauler

#

like the electronic voice alert

#

and the live radio system

visual nest
#

I mean maybe make it compatible with mrov weathers and make it able to plow the snow?

#

Thats one idea

humble geyser
#

mrov weathers doesn't have snowy

#

do you mean lethal elements?

visual nest
#

Yes

humble geyser
#

if so, i can probably add that pretty easily

visual nest
#

Im dumb lol

humble geyser
#

i've looked at the code for it already

visual nest
#

Sweet

humble geyser
#

i'd just need to make it a soft dep

visual nest
#

Sweet

#

Maybe also make it have the snow plow part on it when it is snowing

humble geyser
#

ehh

visual nest
#

Fair

humble geyser
#

i don't like the idea of just a snow plow whipping up into existence

#

out of nowhere

visual nest
#

Fair

#

Maybe make it an attatchable part

#

That comes with the hauler

humble geyser
#

ehhh

#

idk

visual nest
#

Also fair

humble geyser
#

some hauler pic tures

visual nest
#

Does the glovebox work?

humble geyser
#

i will make it work

#

glojam said it was smth he regretted not making work

visual nest
#

Can u store like 1-2 small items?

humble geyser
#

so i'm adding it in

#

that's the plan

visual nest
#

Bc i like the idea of putting the pistol from piggys variety in it

humble geyser
#

there's like no code on this right now yet lol

#

been in the process of animating it all

visual nest
#

Fair

humble geyser
visual nest
#

Built in radar could be cool

humble geyser
#

ehhhhhhhh

#

feel like that would break something super bad

#

and it wouldn't fit super well

visual nest
#

Idk then. I have no ideas on what to add to make it compete with the cruiser

#

The hauler feels like it should be the starter vehicle you get for like 200

#

It would get more use

humble geyser
#

for something that has almost 3x the health and durability of the cruiser with 2x seating capacity and way better enemy protection that feels stupid dirt cheap

#

it's a huge truck not some dinky sedan lol

visual nest
#

Whats the cruiser price again?

humble geyser
#

was 400 in v55

visual nest
#

Make the hauler 350

#

Or 370

humble geyser
#

i don't think i want to touch the price

#

it used to be 600 but got reduced

#

i think my scanvan is like 480

#

my v55 cruiser is 400 (authenticity!)

visual nest
#

Unless u can make a config for the price, i prob wont get much use outta the hauler mod tbh.

#

But i am excited for the scanvan

visual nest
humble geyser
#

my v55 cruiser also makes weedkiller 60 again

..and yesfox will be a dependancy of it

visual nest
#

Yesfox doesnt work with my modpack

#

Idk why, but it breaks things

humble geyser
#

howso?

visual nest
#

Definitive Rebalance modpack

humble geyser
#

yesfox would only be a dependancy due to the fact weedkiller would be useless otherwise haha

visual nest
#

It either breaks multiplayer or just the entire thing

#

I dont remember

humble geyser
#

i've never had issues with yesfox

#

good GOD lethalsnap is part of that modpack

#

😭

#

that mod is soooooo busted

visual nest
#

Whats wrong with snap?

humble geyser
#

it has been so broken for ages

#

and it will be extra broken in v73

visual nest
#

Damnit

#

I knew it

#

Ill remove it

#

Ughhhh, i honestly thought i was just unlucky and it wasnt spawning

humble geyser
#

i don't really know what additional gimmicks i can add to the hauler would be, it's just a late 2000s GM Chevy truck, they weren't really packed with features from factory

visual nest
#

Btw most of the planet mods dont add the planets. Just interiors

humble geyser
#

i just wanted to keep the hauler alive

visual nest
#

In my modpack.

humble geyser
#

and rework most of the model/animations

#

it's 2 cool to let die in my eyes

#

and i don't think anyone else would of picked it up

visual nest
humble geyser
#

again i think the issue was the physics

visual nest
#

The hauler being a starter vehicle would make sense bc it would last longer.

humble geyser
#

it had super nasty tendancies to fly into random directions and kill you for no reason

visual nest
#

I never had enough money to get it

#

Always had just enough for the cruiser

humble geyser
#

even if you drove like a grandma

humble geyser
visual nest
humble geyser
#

multiple times

visual nest
#

Bc i couldnt afford it

humble geyser
#

the haulers physics are fucked

#

oh

#

lol

#

btw don't use the hauler in v73 for the meantime

visual nest
#

Yea.

humble geyser
#

it no worky right now

visual nest
#

Ah ok

humble geyser
#

until i update it

visual nest
#

Thx

humble geyser
#

nw

visual nest
#

But still, if u want people to use ur vehicle, make it cheaper. Not many players will pay attention to its health

humble geyser
#

the only time i use the vanilla cruiser now is in pub lobbies

#

i'm always using meh scanvan hehe

visual nest
humble geyser
humble geyser
#

and not everyone will

visual nest
#

True

humble geyser
#

i haven't used cruiser terminal ever

visual nest
#

Then at least make it same price as cruiser

humble geyser
#

plus it wouldn't work with my vehicles anyways

humble geyser
visual nest
#

You either buy durability or fancy features

visual nest
humble geyser
visual nest
#

For christ sakes ill make the config

humble geyser
#

LLL handles the registration and setting up all the terminal nodes for it in the shop

#

and doesn't allow an easy direct way to modify the price at runtime

visual nest
#

Oh, ok that makes more sense now

humble geyser
#

i can set a price yes, but then LLL handles it all

visual nest
humble geyser
#

i have to set the price in unity editor

#

i did

#

lol

#

if my wording was off then i apologise

visual nest
#

Then can i have permission to reupload ur mod but with a name like Test or smthn so people dont download it. Just so i can have the lower price?

visual nest
#

I missed it

humble geyser
visual nest
#

Ah shit then

humble geyser
#

my scanvans for example

image.png
visual nest
#

480 is still so much

humble geyser
#

it's really not

#

lol

visual nest
#

Stick to 470

#

100 more than cruiser

humble geyser
#

i was struggling to get a price that felt right for the cruiser

visual nest
#

At least that part would make sense

humble geyser
#

i felt like 480 was that sweet spot

visual nest
#

Ik, but just being 100 more would make more sense than 110 more

humble geyser
#

if you think that's too much then you'd hate a 400 dollar version-55 cruiser with less features than modern day

#

and worse durability

visual nest
#

Yes i would

#

Indeed

humble geyser
#

it does have one kinda neat gimmick but it doesn't really impact much

visual nest
#

But i like that u at least made it for people who liked it

humble geyser
#

and that's the ability for the wheel to spawn on the other side

#

if you willingly download the v55 cruiser you might be undiagnosed with masochism

visual nest
#

But yea, i prob wont use hauler then. But thx for at least listening to my reasonings

#

That was very nice of u to do

#

I appreciate it

humble geyser
#

that's ok! again i'm all ears to any decent suggestions for the hauler

#

the price i'll have to think about

visual nest
#

I mean ill still have the mod added, just not use the hauler prob.

humble geyser
#

i mean they're not exactly loaded with features anyways lol

2007_chevrolet_silverado_1500_dashboard.jpg
#

(2007 chevy 1500 pictured)

visual nest
#

I mean yea, but u can come up with some

humble geyser
#

head empty

visual nest
#

Same

#

Nothing is comin to mind other than adding compatibility with cruiser terminal

humble geyser
#

again a terminal literally wouldn't fit anywhere

visual nest
#

Back window

humble geyser
#

and cruiser terminal has an ID check to make sure it doesn't try apply to modded vehicles

#

bro what lol

#

that would look so stupid

#

and you wouldn't be able to look out the back window

visual nest
#

Yea but itd work

#

Or side of vehicle

humble geyser
#

that's way too goofy

#

i'm not doing that

#

neither that

visual nest
#

Fair

#

Next to the back window

#

To the left

humble geyser
#

also too goofy

#

it'd just look

#

so out of place

#

and anyways adding a second terminal into the world can cause weird issues/bugs

visual nest
#

Fair

#

Built in walkies?

#

Like trucker radio

humble geyser
#

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

visual nest
#

Push a button and talk

humble geyser
#

this may not be a bad idea

#

a CB radio

visual nest
#

Yea

humble geyser
#

i'll think about that one

visual nest
#

And button to activate the ship magnet

humble geyser
#

ehh

visual nest
#

Only works within certain distance tho

humble geyser
#

it's not difficult to just

#

get out

#

and activate the lever

#

or just turn it on when you drive away

visual nest
#

Alr i gtg rn

humble geyser
#

alright

Remove the boost scandal

#

Best way to balance everything ever

arctic ocean
humble geyser
#

e

arctic ocean
#

it is faster to use the eject button and you can drop stuff straight on to the roof

humble geyser
#

it's not worth taking it there

#

imo

arctic ocean
#

i think it is "unnecessary" but definitely not useless

#

cruiser is absolutely good for offense though

#

because of the eject tech

humble geyser
#

i park the truck at main on offense anyways

#

and if i use my truck i have no choice hehe

arctic ocean
#

i like using cruiser at offense main too but it is still one of the best ways to cycle in and out of the fire exit

#

and the geometry of the fire exit makes it easy to park in a spot where you can eject upwards to it and also drop stuff on the roof without moving the car

#

anyways i do think the lack of ejector seat impacts possible viability but the hauler's other bonuses can help in other situations

humble geyser
#

my scanvan has no ejector either :3

arctic ocean
#

and also i just think it is aesthetically really cool so i dont think it is a massive deal

humble geyser
#

but that's for a good reason

#

(the middle passenger seat eats up the center console, so the shifter goes on the dashboard, in place of the button)

#

plus the er

#

enclosed roof

Wooow

Neat idea

But i dont think scandal is doing that

humble geyser
humble geyser
#

CD is just local tracks

#

so that also means cruisertunes support again

gentle sable
#

ic ic

humble geyser
#

i removed the radio static though

#

because

#

..it's a CD

#

the "CD" mode uses most of the base radio code

gentle sable
#

wouldnt even make sense anyways LMFAO

humble geyser
#

with a-lot of cleanup

gentle sable
#

unless the cd was broken or something

#

even that

So the hauler is being completely redone? If so, this looks SICK, what an amazing job so far.

north pine
#

i thought it was getting tweaked

humble geyser
north pine
#

but yeah scandal a crazy man

humble geyser
humble geyser
#

and the wip rework

#

:p

#

many many fixes to the model too

#

and much needed cleanup

fast flower
humble geyser
#

solo mods probably

#

no point re-uploading the hauler when the original can just be updated with the rework

#

then anyone who had it before can just update it

#

i don't see a point bundling the v55 cruiser and scanvan together either for example

#

as i just know i will get complaints like

#

"why is the vanilla cruiser so shit now"

#

"why is it right hand drive?"

#

etc

#

i also don't handle what and what doesn't go into the shop, since its handled by LLL, so i couldn't really make it configurable either

north pine
#

i mean yeah all your vehicles are very different things

#

tho im curious

#

will hauler be its own mod or a fix mod like cruiserimproved?

humble geyser
#

the hauler rework will just be an update for the main mod

#

you won't need CI or anything to fix any vanilla issues

#

it'll run all new code for everything

north pine
#

if you were to add another vehicle to your truck i guess that could be in a pack

north pine
humble geyser

i just didnt know you had the files or idk how thats gonna happen hehe

i can just send them to Glojam

#

i don't think enemies not seeing you in the car is fair balance wise

#

i'll already be adding protection when in the cab with the doors and sunroof shut

#

like my scanvan, but that has no sunroof, just doors

#

and if the glass was tinted you wouldn't be able to see out of it

cloud veldt
#

Honestly remote magnet trigger might be valuable, ive done hundreds of artifice runs with my friends and someone forgetting to turn it back on sometimes causes disaster

#

I did originally plan on doing a built in CB radio but i realized it was useless because you can just crouch in a seat with a radio item

#

the super horn is super useful for baiting dogs from across the map which helps justify the price imo but it is difficult to communicate to the player that thats what it does

I'm finally tackling redoing the entire UV-Map for this truck
starting with the paint/colour haha

P8l7Mdi.png
#

It'll also look a bit cleaner as a result I guess, so that's cool

#

But it'll also allow people to make proper skins that don't stretch weirdly, should someone/I add a form of skin support like CruiserSkin

Oh god, haha

I've also remodelled the front seats

#

Just gotta pray that 2 employees fit on the new dual front passenger seat

#

If not, I'll just reuse the old seats, I guess

humble geyser
#

Oki! there should just be the seat material, normal maps n whatnot, and the roofrack to texture now, and obviously redo the LOD's

#

the model is being reworked too, as you can see in those photos i replied to

#

also, this is my vehicle thread! whenever i work on the hauler, it'll be posted here, up until the release, in which case anything related to it will most likely be in the hauler thread again

#

not only is the model being reworked but everything else is being redone as well

#

animations, physics, code etc

#

parts of it will be taken from my Scanvan and or V55-Cruiser

#

i've learnt a-lot while working on them, and that knowledge is going to put towards the Hauler

shut crow
humble geyser
#

ah haha, no worries!

#

i just didn't want to flood the LE channel with photos and whatnot

#

i don't have too much to say on the Hauler right now, on the off chance i have had the motivation to work again, i've been putting into the Scanvan, I undertook redoing the entire UV-Map and texture for it, which was quite a drain, but that's mostly done, and I just need to do the LODs again now

tawdry axle
#

You should make the legendary Company Bicycle that you pedal by alternating A and D

#

It's an idea I think I've seen show up like 3 separate times

humble geyser
#

I've also seen people suggest 2-wheeled vehicles like bicycles, bikes etc, but I simply have no interest to do anything such

#

I'm not particularly big on bikes/bicycles, etc

#

I think It'd be cool, but it's not something I'm interesting in doing

tawdry axle
#

I just think it'd be funny to be furiously pedaling away from a giant

humble geyser
#

I think a bike is where DawnLib would also come in handy

#

As then you don't just have to rely on the comically large magnet to take the bike with you

humble geyser
#

Okee, the LODs for the Scanvan have been redone, haha, what a pain, but it's done now, don't need to do 'em again

humble geyser

I know what you're referring to, but it isn't

My friend lied to me plink they said a berguntruck was an actual car

humble geyser

It's a misspelling of bergentrückung

#

No, it isn't

Fooled by the meme

thorny sapphire
#

Ok

#

Besides i scrolled up and saw that the hauler looked close enough for me

humble geyser
#

Well, the Hauler isn't blue, but it is a pickup I suppose

thorny sapphire
#

Make it blue and my life is yours

#

My [heartshapedobject] will be yours

humble geyser
#

No, I'd like to respect Trains vision for the truck, and I don't have access to the PDNs used to make the truck

thorny sapphire

Oki

humble geyser
#

I did toy around with the idea of a blue variant of my Scanvan ages ago, but it never looked right to me

#

There's two variants of my Scanvan, one is red (normal one) and there is a special/rare/fun gimmick variant which I haven't showed here

indigo coyote
#

i mean the hauler is black and that kinda represents the queens chariot

cold dune
#

Wouldnt a color config be possible?

#

what you could do is just make the default black and add some color variant options

#

you are very good at colornits

odd niche
humble geyser
#

For the Hauler, id have to bodge the texture as I don't have the original pdns

#

For the Scanvan, since I redid the texture, I do have the original pdn

humble geyser
#

The primary colour is a slightly more faded red than the normal CC

cold dune
#

i guess you could try the “its a white texture and you have a color picker” option

#

and set the default color picker color to how you want it

#

that way people can use any color without bloating size

#

could get weird with some logos tho

indigo coyote
#

logo becomes the opposite color

Currently toying around with LethalElements compat, so far I've added "zones" to the truck, that being:

On top
In the cab
In the back

I'm hoping the code I wrote for them is reliable/consistent enough (Using OnTriggerStay on an interval check, and OnTriggerExit, with some cheap fallbacks)

Anyways, right now, so long as the engine is running (so the cabin fan is turned on) and you're in the cab with the doors and windows shut, you can cool down and not be impacted by the heatwave

This is still a WIP, I also plan on compat for blizzard, if everything goes according to plan

#

The fan will probably become a toggleable thing rather than being tied to the ignition, as I would also like to add a functional heater system to the truck

#

Or I could make the fan turn off if the heater is on, and vise versa, that would be simpler, we'll see though lol

humble geyser
humble geyser
odd niche
#

what's the ac for

humble geyser
#

Right now A/C most likely won't do anything, just cold/hot temp, off/vent and fan speed

humble geyser
odd niche
#

and as you put it yeah i see

humble geyser
#

I could make it work, but it'd mostly have the same effect as "putting the temp to cold and turning the fan speed all the way up"

odd niche
#

could you make it so it says "air conditionning" with a very monotonous voice

humble geyser
#

...no?

#

The Chrysler voice alert doesn't have any alerts for the heater/ac, and I don't get why the car would randomly just say "Air conditioning" for no reason, that's stupid

flint prawn
humble geyser
#

It could tell you to close certain doors/the trunk, it can tell you when the engine was low on oil, oil pressure, engine coolant low, when the engine was overheating/temp above normal, transmission fluid low, fuel level low, the charging system not working properly, brake fluid level low, it can tell you when the brake disc pads are wearing low, washer fluid being low + rear washer fluid low, it can tell you to check operation of the headlamps, taillamps, brake lamps, it can tell you the parking brake being on if you try to drive with it on, it can remind you the keys are left in the ignition and it can remind you that you left the headlamps on, it can remind you to put your seatbelt on, and finally it can say "Thank you" for the user complying, and if everything is working properly upon startup it'll say "All monitored systems are functioning"

This is if you had the later 24 function EVA system

Vehicle Hangar has my vehicles :3

#

The Cruiser prop has my old Scanvan skin on it

#

I don't use that skin anymore ofc, since I redid the entire texture, but it's still cool

odd niche
#

could we get an addon mod that adds different scanvan skins

#

so that people who want scanvan don't get bloated by default

#

but people who want customisation of it can get it independently

humble geyser
#

We'll see

odd niche
humble geyser
#

I'm not sure how interested I am in implementing such a thing though

#

I'll have to give it some thought

odd niche
#

do as you wish, that's just my take on scanvan skins

#

or even, you could implement some kind of way for people to create custom mods that add their own skins as addons for it

#

now that would be pretty neat

north pine
#

I also suggested that to him

#

But yeah he isnt all thst interested :c

#

Makes sense, is not really thst easy

#

And he loves giving as much detail as possible

#

Actually scandal, is thst the reason you dont want to do that?

humble geyser

It wouldn't be difficult to do, as there is already a direct reference to my trucks texture/materials

I meant no real reason as to why I'm not interested

I'm "just not" and it ends at that, lol

If someone else wants to make a submod for it, then they can go all for it

north pine
#

Oki

humble geyser
#

Okay, the heater controls should be functional, now I just need to code in extra functionality for weathers such as Blizzard n' shit, add add the heater audio in

#

I've also tweaked the engine noise, so I'm going to see how that sounds

humble geyser
#

The heater controls are working, neat, if it's a heatwave and you put it to cold and turn it on, you'll cool down!

north pine
#

yippee!!!

humble geyser
#

The engine noise isn't sounding how I want it to, so I'm just going to undo what I did in terms of that, then I can implement the hot air for blizzard

humble geyser

well then you gotta step out and go catch it

Heater controls working for blizzard + heatwave :p

north pine
#

And for solar flare what will you do?

#

Maybe the battery could die

humble geyser
#

I don't think I'll do anything for Solar Flare

#

Battery dying wouldn't make too much sense

north pine
#

It would!!!

#

Why wouldnt it :(

#

Just make the truck light go out :3

humble geyser
#

(basically nothing)

#

Plus, the battery in a vehicle is only really there just to start the vehicle

north pine
#

Then make it that you cant use the truck >:3

north pine
#

Pardon my lack of knowledge

humble geyser
north pine
#

Whats the difference with any other battery

humble geyser
#

Electronics in modern vehicles could theoretically be affected

#

But this isn't really a modern vehicle

humble geyser
#

Your standard 12v car battery is highely unlikely to be impacted by solar flares

#

Plus, if taking the truck on a solar flare moon completely fried the battery and made it permanently unusable, that would be completely unfair

north pine
#

Okiiii

humble geyser
#

Anyways, the heater seems to be working against the blizzard weather in LE :)

#

Well, actually, I need to tweak some of the logic

#

I know it works properly against heatwave

#

Hmmm, okay, the Blizzard doesn't work as I thought, I'm probably going to change up the logic for it

#

Ah, okay, I think I see how it works

humble geyser
#

Theoretically, if this works, the fan speed should also affect how quickly you warm up in the truck during blizzard

#

Which is neat

#

I've also restructured the logic, so I'm hoping this works properly

cold dune
humble geyser
#

It crashed my game as soon as I tried to sit in the truck

#

Cool

cold dune
#

here i can help you, just take an entire warm variant vehicle hangar and shove it in there to warm you up

#

it will fit inside the glove compartment

humble geyser
#

True

#

#

Please don't crash game

#

Ok, it doesn't crash

cold dune
#

thats groosh...

humble geyser
#

It doesn't crash, but it doesn't seem like anything is working, hmm

#

Time to add logging

north pine
#

Anyways hiii haiii

humble geyser
#

No, my patch is running

#

Also heya!

#

Oh, my logic is backwards

#

Woops

#

Yeah, ok, logic seems good now

#

This should protect you from the cold

#

Oh great, if I have the blower on full cold i start taking damage, lol

#

So that's working I guess

#

Just some weird issue to fix with drunkness/tzp sounds getting stuck during blizzard

#

Other than that it works fine as far as I can tell

cold dune
#

also make sure its not a problem when Leliments isnt installed

odd niche
#

Can we have an ice cream machine in the scanvan

cold dune
#

can it also dispense balloons

humble geyser
#

Added some more debugging and patched some more logic, going to see if this works :p

humble geyser
#

Okay, something is still making me take damage in blizzard regardless of the heater full blast, I know that I'm setting blizzard, wind and some other bool properly, so I need to dig deeper

north pine
#

Pacooo

humble geyser
#

Nah, I think I might know a solution, lol

#

Patching the function that sets the player temp and altering the temperatureDelta before it sets anything

#

I also just added more on screen debugging text so I can see what's going on, very handy function Zeekerss

humble geyser
#

Okay, bad idea, new approach time, lol

humble geyser
#

I think I'll continue this tomorrow, but so far the heater is kind of working

If you switch it to cold, for some reason you immediately freeze up, rather than a gradual freezing, so I need to look into that

#

Progress is looking good, though

#

My patch for setting inColdZone is now working as well, hoorah

#

Had to get a bit hacky due to how it was implemented, but that's fine

#

So that pretty much just leaves the switching to cold issue

#

I would love to add a "cabin temperature" system to the truck, but idk if I'll go that far

#

So long as the heater has basic functionality and does what it needs to, I'm happy

static horizon
#

can it sing?

humble geyser
#

Fixed the "being immediately frozen" issue

#

I do need to fix not gaining coldness while in the truck with the heater off, but that should be easy

#

For reference, if the on screen inCold is true, you'll notice normTemp drop into the negatives, this is the player getting colder, otherwise, it goes up to about 0 and stays around there (yes the number freaks out, no this isn't an issue afaik and neither is it something I caused)

humble geyser
#

we'll see

odd niche
cold dune
humble geyser
#

I also fixed the Scanvan not making snow trails, lol

image.png
cold dune
#

lole

humble geyser
#

Just tweaking the heater right now, adding in cold exposure multipliers that are based on what like, windows are open, and they can reduce the effectiveness of the heater

#

Well, that's the idea anyways, I think for the doors I'll just make the heater have no effect

humble geyser
#

okay that broke everything

#

erm

humble geyser
#

New issue, need to fix getting cold even if the vehicle is under shelter and you're in the truck with a door open

#

Should be easy-ish

humble geyser
#

Okay, fixed some issues with having doors open/etc when the vehicle is under a building and a player would be classed as "sheltered" although having the doors shut and blower on cold will freeze you up ofc

#

You will no longer freeze while in a vehicle that's under shelter (as long as the player would usually be classed as sheltered in that building) even with the heater off

#

Some slight alterations are required but it's "mostly working"

indigo coyote
#

so if the doors are closed and the blower is on cold without heater (on a snowy moon? idk) you just get snowgraved

humble geyser
indigo coyote
#

blizzard weather?

humble geyser
#

yes

indigo coyote
#

makes sense

humble geyser
#

just using the heater on its own with no lethalelements won't do anything

indigo coyote
#

but would it also do that thing on snowy moons

#

or did you not implement that yet

humble geyser
#

i'm probably not going to implement that

indigo coyote
#

oh

#

i dont know how this works but you could just use LLL snowy tags

humble geyser
#

plus i'm not sure if i can even reliably determine what moon is snowy and what isn't, without hardcoding it by name

#

for now this is just an LET compat/functionality thing

#

i don't feel like implementing my own player frostbite system/overheating system just for vanilla

indigo coyote
#

not worth the trouble

humble geyser
#

This blizzard shit is such a mindfuck

#

Hoping this works

#

Lookin' good so far

humble geyser
#

So I don't actually think Snowfall has the same temperature mechanics as Blizzard, but it appears you can still give yourself frostbite by turning the blower to full cold, lol, fun

#

Next thing I need to figure out with LET is whether I can add my weather blocker objects to snow drops, so snow doesn't leak into the cab/rear compartment

Had to get a little creative, but the heatwave heater stuff is "mostly working"

#

I had to patch the SetPlayerTemperature method instead for the most part to change the heat transfer rate

#

Only if the Heatwave is active though, and you're in my truck

#

This also now means the heater speed does have an effect during heatwave

And you can cook yourself alive on full heat full fan speed

its picking up alot more stations now too, so i think there was some big change going on on their end

also been mucking about with a cold-start system that'll influence the climate control with lethalelements installed

trying out the hauler with the new wheel colliders, also experimenting with a smoother steering system (still manual recentering) i actually kinda dig it

#

the truck is also rear wheel drive, but it's still kinda capable, and with this, it also feels less like a vanilla cruiser

#

not sure how the player animations are going to play with this steering but, we'll see

humble geyser

this was testing it earlier :3

and there's still a big chunk in the way of that

the most annoying one

holy shit this wheel collider is being fiesty

just trying to figure out a half decent collision resolution for when the wheel is fully compressed

#

in the absolute worst case scenario i'll just ship it with hard limits and see what happens

humble geyser
#

okay, i have soft bump stops in place, probably the best solution i'm going to get for now

#

the truck will bounce if it hits the floor hard enough from a drop, which i'm okay with, its better than just the wheels absorbing all the impact like the vanilla CC

regarding the scanvans radio, mainly for the sake of file size, i think i'm going to bite the bullet and make the music copyright free by default, however the original config to disable it will work as it did before, but if the user has no custom music installed then the screen will display "NO CD" (this config also unlocks the live radio system)

humble geyser
#

okay great it's still ludicrously large in size

#

okay compressing some textures made a big diff lmao

humble geyser
#

also fixed some further issues with the radio, primarily when switching radio type back and forth

#

it also handles having no custom user music if on non dmca free mode

humble geyser
#

@cobalt crane continuing on here

cobalt crane
#

ooh

#

gear switch bind 🙏

#

also wheel centering is nice because i don't think vanilla centers the steering wheel at all

humble geyser
#

by that i mean, pressing W goes forward, S goes backwards

#

rather than W just being the gas and S always being the brake pedal

#

i personally dislike having S go backwards but that's just me

cobalt crane

oh yeah

humble geyser

resulting in "my wheel is angled 190 degrees to the right but my car is going straight"

#

and "my wheel is straight but my car is turning to the left"

#

both cruiserimproved and bettervehiclecontrols have an identical "fix" but cruiserimproved also syncs the position of the wheel for clients if they also have cruiserimproved installed

#

since it's also desynced in multiplayer

cobalt crane
#

wouldn't hurt to use both right?

#

or do they conflict with each other

humble geyser
#

you absolutely can use both

#

no they don't conflict

i'm just saying they both apply an identical fix but it doesn't hurt using them together

there are no issues
