R&D -Excalibur 12x12

CAUTION: This is NOT a mod free vehicle, all the mods that you need are listed in the required field. Also, you will never want to use normal suspension after you have taken a few runs in this ;)


Are you constantly looking for a vehicle to explore with ?
Are you constantly trying out new designs and experimenting with the suspension to make your vehicle the best ?
Are you constantly loosing wheels and tires going over tiny bumps ?

Fear no more, your salvation has arrived ! Meet the Exacalibur 12x12 Heavy exploration vehicle. Capable of speeds in excess of 200 km/h over rough terrain, huge jumps and more, while still maintaing the ride quality of an old Mercedes!

The Excalibur is a 12 wheel drive vehicle with turning on both the front and rear axles. It also boasts a massive cargohold capable of carrying with you anything you need for a long exploration mission. It has it's own oxygen tank and oxygen generator, as well as extra batteries for you hybrid loving tree hugging engineers.

The vehicle features a player controlled quad turret with Oki's 23mm quad barrel fixed guns with recoil supression and lazer sights, controlled from the gunners seat (left most seat) (Check the edited version of his mod used in this blueprint here https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=520712849&searchtext=OKI+edited)

It also has a set of automatic LCD displaying mission critical information to all three (yes three) engineers and a large set of LCD in the rear of the cabin. All credit to the MMaster for creating that gorgeous script (Check it out here https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=403921671)

The main reason for this vehicles amazing off road capabilities is the script provided by Skleroz (Check it out ! https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=653022984&searchtext=Realistic)
This script gives the vehicle the capability of performing huge jumps while still beeing driveable in normal conditins by chaning the suspension parameters. It also provides preset which you can easily configure yourself, we at R&D Industries provide with two standard presets, number one is a normal driving preset, while number two is a "crawler" mode, allowing you to climb steep hills where normal vehicles would get stuck. To change between these presets enter the Control panel, search for Suspension, choose the suspension controller and use g:up or g:down as an argument for the programmable block to change between the two. If you wish to add another preset you can do so by going to the _Preset block and adding another line in the Public text box (Not the title!). If you cant figure this out, post a comment, or check out Skleroz's original mod where he gives a more in depth description of how to set it up yourself.

Using the number two and three buttons while in the captains chair will change the speed limiter, think of it as a gearbox.

The vehicle is fully piped and survival ready.

Lastly, dont forget to fuel up the reactors and add some ice before you set off ;)

Aaaah, I rememberd one last thing, try to avoid falling nose first into the ground, as the suspesion will not be capable of handling that, try landing flat as this makes the suspension super durable.

I would like to thank all the modders who made this creation a possiblity and specialy Skleroz for helping with fine tuning the suspension parameters.

If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask, our help desk is more than willing to answer all of your questions, no matter how silly.
