MULTV06 Buffalo 128kSU-LT*

Please note: of the 6 generators, only 2 come on by default. 2 more are turned on by the "Shields" Device Group Shortcut (along with the shield itself) - meaning that, when turning the shields on using your normal keybind, it won't have enough power to charge and the generators (and a lot more) might go bang. If you don't like this, please feel free to move the 2 generators found in the "[1]Power - Shield" device group into the "[1]Power - Main" device group.

Mod/Scenario - None (Vanilla)

* The Buffalo ignores device limits, with it's 12 Gatling Turrets.

- NOTE - the devices have been sorted into custom device groups, upon which some of the custom Device Group Shortcuts depend, so it is strongly recommended to not use the "Auto Group" feature.
1. PropulsionEtc - Turns on & off all Thrusters, the "main" Hover Engines, and 2 large Generators.
NB - using the Thrusters "General" shortcut will leave the hover engines off.
2. MaxLift - Turns on & off additional Hover Engines for high-G environments.
3. RCSs - Turns on & off all RCSs.
4. Shields - Turns on & off the shield generator and 2 large Generators.
NB - Using the normal keybind (or "General" Shield switch) WILL cause the 2 "default" generators to overload.
5. Ventilators - Turns on & off both Ventilator blocks (so you can save power in a breathable environment).
1. PowerSave - Turning the 'Power Save' custom signal on turns the following devices off:
WiFi; Holo (LCD) Projectors; Light/Ramp/Door Control Motion Sensors; Passenger Seat.
2. GatlingTurrets - Turns on & off the "Anti-Personnel" Gatling Turrets.
3. Floodlights - Turns on & off the top front "Spotlight Mode" lights.
4. Headlights - Turns on & off the front "Spotlight Block" headlights.
5. Taillights - Turns on & off ALL red flares on rear.

Beneath the vehicle is a double set of manual shutter doors, inside which is empty space for adding stuff.

As shown in the above screenshots, the colour palette includes 4 primary colours to choose from: Desert Sand (vehicle comes in this colour); Military Green; Arctic White; Dark Grey. To swap the colour, simply click on the "Replace Mode" check box on the Colour And Texture Tool's UI, then (ensuring that no texture is selected) click on the coloured square that you want to change to, then "fire" the Colour & Texture Tool at any part of the vehicle that is painted the colour you want to replace.


- NOTE - any Mini Fridges on board come turned off by default to save power until food is inside needing to be kept cold, and can only be turned off manually (or by turning off all power to the vehicle) from the fridge's own UI to limit instances of food being accidentally spoiled.
