Improve your vehicles with the Vanilla Vehicles Expanded – Upgrades Mod, a revolutionary enhancement to your vehicle management in-game. The Vanilla Vehicles Expanded – Upgrades Mod introduces a comprehensive upgrade system that allows players to customize and enhance their vehicles using valuable resources.
Vanilla Vehicles Expanded – Upgrades Mod Features
- Tailored Customization: Each vehicle in your fleet can be individually upgraded with unique enhancements, from reinforced armor and engine covers to offroad tires and cargo expansions.
- Impactful Choices: Every upgrade comes with significant advantages but requires strategic resource investment, making your decisions impactful as you develop vehicles suited to various tasks.
- Dynamic Visuals: Upgrades are not just statistical; they also change the appearance of your vehicles, adding layers like armored treads and upgraded exhaust systems that visually reflect your modifications.
- Diverse Enhancements: Choose from a variety of enhancements that boost speed, improve armor, increase cargo capacity, and more, each tailored to different vehicle types, from explorers and haulers to combat-ready tanks.
We’re excited to utilize what the Vehicles Framework has to offer, and you can expect more vehicle upgrades to be added to the Vanilla Vehicles Expanded – Upgrades Mod later down the line.
FAQs
Q: Where can I find change logs?
A: Check change notes.
Q: Why are there no upgrades to flying vehicles?
A: Upgrading flying vehicles has not been our priority just yet. When more flying-related mechanics make it into Vehicles Framework, we will reconsider our stance.
Q: Why is this a separate mod?
A: Because each upgrade essentially brings a lot of kb of textures – each upgrade is the equivalent to a brand new vehicle, filesize-wise. Use this mod only if your machine can run it.
Q: How do I upgrade vehicles?
A: Simply select a vehicle and press the Upgrades button.
Q: Does it work with existing vehicles on existing saves?
A: Yes it does!
Q: Why no upgrades for boats?
A: For the same reason there are no upgrades to flying vehicles. Other than mounting a gun or increasing speed, there really isn’t anything new and original upgrades can bring to boats.
Q: Can I add it mid save?
A: Yes!
Q: CE compatible?
A: No idea. Ask CE.
Compatibility notes
None of the Tier 3 vehicles are currently planned to have access to the upgrade system. The upgrade system exists to:
- Bridge the gap between Tier 1 and Tier 2, making Tier 1s usable and valid in late game.
- Slightly benefit Tier 2 to make them more specialized in late game.
Tier 3 vehicles are already as specialized and powerful as we like them. As such, upgrades won’t exist to make them even stronger.
