Rough Terrain Container Handler (RTCH) / Forklift

Description
This is my take on a Caterpillar Rough Terrain Container Handler (RTCH). It is designer to fit inside the train workbench spawn area so that it can be used to manage cargo at the North Harbour base. This does mean the container attachment can be difficult to get out initially and is something I would like to address in the future by means of a trailer of some sort.

===========================================================================

Features:

- Left and right side drivers doors.
- Headlights
- Reversing lights and buzzer
- Brake lights
- Container frame attachment
- AWD
- Rear view mirrors

To drive hop in the cab and turn the engine key on the right side of the dash. The parking brake is disengaged on spawn. The RTCH has a fixed RPS and no gears.

The new trailer has automatic brakes when it is not attached to a vehicle, they can be disabled with a switch on the left side of the trailer. a switch located at the front will release the connectors for the container frame. The winch frame is sitting freely on top of the container frame. The brakes on the trailer will activate when you activate the brakes on the RTCH.

===========================================================================

Controls:

W = Engage clutch.
S = Variable Brakes.
A/D = Turn left and right.
1 = Reverse.
2 = Release fork grippers - This is to detach the container frame attachment and let it slide freely.
3 = Release ISO container magnets - This requires at least 1 electrical connector be between the RTCH and the container frame. Ropes and cables are stored in the top section of the container frame.
4 = Parking brake.
5 = Winch Attachment Up
6 = Winch Attachment Down

Have fun! :D

===========================================================================
Changelog:

- Added a big weight to the rear. Was struggling to lift 30K litre fuel containers, can now lift them. still a bit too much weight.
- Moved the fake pistons back one block so the arm can tilt back over the cabin a little more. Helps with heavier loads.
- Added a trailer and a new winch attachment so you no longer have to drag the frames out of the train shed.

===========================================================================

Yes, It will work with containers that spawn at terminals. You may need to be a bit careful because ive built this to work with my fuel containers which have a much higher mass, so when you pick up the normal game containers it can feel a bit bouncy.

Ive addressed ^5LukaOC100's comment and changed some things.

It is now heavier, grippier and comes with a trailer and another fork attachment that uses winches. The trailer will also be available as a separate vehicle soonᵗᵐ

Unfortunately there is not too much that can be done about the vehicle sliding. It is a Stormworks engine issue. It can somewhat be controlled with xml editing with the trade off that you have too much grip and will overshoot targets or crash into things.

Looks good but performs horrible, hard to attach container adapter, slides everywhere without touching controls and cant even put the container on the train
