The engine keeps exploding and I don't know why it seems to have a coolest problem even in the ocean

pls make an orange version to match the kx3 outpost

i thought these 2 boxes were emergency boxes or something like that XD i thought you can go in and then there is a seat and a bit of equipment xD

Otherwise really good vehicle!
Bear08ex 25 Nov, 2020 @ 6:26pm 
By the way i don't know if this purposly built like this but when you put all wheel steering on all the wheels go one way. Again i dont know if that is on purpose but if not you may need to fix that

The car goes on fire for me a few minutes after activating the engines. Can somebody give me a solution? I'm probably doing something wrong.
Presence 25 Oct, 2020 @ 11:41am 
it is sooo slow for me and I have no lag
TheSoaringOWL90 27 Sep, 2020 @ 4:25pm 
No problem!

owlteam2005, Thank you for offering a solution! That middle cable is actually supposed to stay extended (the small winches don't match up on speed with the medium one, even when they're both set to 1.0, and that irritated me xD)
TheSoaringOWL90 26 Sep, 2020 @ 12:24pm 
Same with me. I have found that winches won’t work, probably broken by a mini update, probably a good idea to ask the developers (or whoever’s in charge at Stormworks HQ). I have found a temporary solution though. Reattaching all cables by hand will fix all the winches except the middle one. There will still be the hanging cable going through the ground, but the winches still work.

cheech_2099 I'm not sure what you might be experiencing... make sure you turned on the key (located at the back of the engine case), and the transmission is manual, so you have to tap 1 to shift up and 2 to shift down. Also make sure your parking brake (off by default) is off.

Starbruno769, This has been a recurring problem people have told me about in the comments, but the issue is that with my copy of the vehicle (exactly the same as the subscriber version) seems to work fine... I'm not sure how to fix a problem I don't seem to have... it's not ideal :(
Starbruno769 25 Sep, 2020 @ 2:05pm 
I think the platform and container winches don't work. I tried bringing them up, and they just sat limply. Although it may just be my lag :)
cheech_2099 25 Sep, 2020 @ 1:12pm 
for me it wont drive
Blur1200 24 Sep, 2020 @ 9:49am 
Thanks!

ChillsWelcome, inside, at the middle of the cabin, there are two posts with controls on them. There are 2 instrument panels, the one on the top for controlling the crane and winches. The one on the bottom displays the status of the containers/platforms and also has 2 more buttons controlling the spotlight angle.
Blur1200 24 Sep, 2020 @ 7:39am 
How do you raise the winches anyway?
2ndVariable  [author] 24 Sep, 2020 @ 6:58am 
This is bizarre... In my stormworks instance I can raise the winches just fine, with all the same features... It might be specific to certain downloads? I'm not sure.
williefili 24 Sep, 2020 @ 1:20am 
now the winches for the tanks when you spawn are at lowest dang
Blur1200 23 Sep, 2020 @ 7:02pm 
Why are the tanks on the middle of the vehicle dragging behind the vehicle?
John 23 Sep, 2020 @ 4:55pm 
Found a fix, for the winches to go up on those boxes on the side just reconnect the cables.
Dudley 23 Sep, 2020 @ 4:34pm 
Can't seem to raise winches either. The up arrow doesn't do anything
Elonovich Muskowinsky 23 Sep, 2020 @ 3:43pm 
Oh and maybe a heading hold for the water
Elonovich Muskowinsky 23 Sep, 2020 @ 3:43pm 
Nice! All it needs is a bilge pump.
2ndVariable  [author] 23 Sep, 2020 @ 2:45pm 
daniel_eikel, I'm not sure exactly why you might be experiencing that, but it may help to know the winches are fully raised at spawn. The winches are also very slow, it might be hard to see they are moving.

The medium winch is always extended to a set length, if that's what is causing problems.
DiHydrogen Monoxide Enjoyer 23 Sep, 2020 @ 2:14pm 
I am confused. I cant seem to be able to raise the winches? (I am probably missing a breaker lol)
2ndVariable  [author] 23 Sep, 2020 @ 1:03pm 
Schmanu, that is because they spawn with fluids inside of them. The door auto-locks to prevent the fluids from spilling out. If you want to open them, then find the fluid spawner inside and switch it to "empty." Alternatively, you can empty it manually with another tank connected to its fluid connector.

Why, What sort of equipment do you feel is missing? Also remember that at the back of the vehicle there is a little panel that opens to reveal plenty of equipment.
williefili 23 Sep, 2020 @ 12:57pm 
WHOO HOO I CANT WAIT TILL I USE THIS
Free4all 23 Sep, 2020 @ 11:06am 
hey, how to open the 2boxes at the vehicle bc they are locked
why 23 Sep, 2020 @ 9:48am 
Could you add more equipment to the inside of the vehicle?
2ndVariable  [author] 23 Sep, 2020 @ 7:39am 
Done!!
williefili 23 Sep, 2020 @ 6:14am 
yay
2ndVariable  [author] 23 Sep, 2020 @ 6:09am 
benweiner The heaters are activated by a breaker on the center console next to the key. I'm not sure if there is another place on the arctic island... to my recollection it's all train depots and docks. For it being hard to drive straight in the wind, well, that might be due to the vehicle's height and probably also its lack of grip (as discussed in an earlier comment).

williefili, That was actually my original intention! The cab is almost totally waterproof, but the main reason I backed away from it was because the windshield ended up being a nightmare of holes, and there are a couple other annoying spots that would take redesign. However, with your comment, I'm considering reworking it to make it amphibious...
williefili 23 Sep, 2020 @ 4:46am 
needs to be water proof and have like a water mode so it can go in water and be the coolest thing ever
Bencw10 22 Sep, 2020 @ 4:37pm 
Also, this thing is hard to use in the wind. It is very hard to drive straight.
Bencw10 22 Sep, 2020 @ 4:35pm 
Also, is there a place to spawn this on the main arctic island? I couldn't find a normal workbench, all I could use was the airport.
Bencw10 22 Sep, 2020 @ 4:32pm 
How do we turn on the heaters?
2ndVariable  [author] 22 Sep, 2020 @ 2:58pm 
MelonKami thanks! The gauges on the containers are for measuring the fluid level inside. Those containers can either hold liquid or be emptied to hold small cargo.
MelonKami 22 Sep, 2020 @ 2:52pm 
I loved this a lot, but what is the containers on the side for? I noticed it had a gauge from the inside
williefili 22 Sep, 2020 @ 1:06pm 
nice
2ndVariable  [author] 22 Sep, 2020 @ 12:47pm 
squeaker0704 Yeah, I had this problem in developing. Part of the problem is that the grip of the larger tires in stormworks is absolute garbage, and so a lot of people use mods to increase grip past the cap in the vanilla; I don't use mods, so I'm stuck with it being at cap in vanilla. As for the stalling issue, that's because the transmission is manual; you have to downshift if the engine loses RPS in order to increase torque.
squeaker0704 22 Sep, 2020 @ 11:45am 
and the engine stalls
squeaker0704 22 Sep, 2020 @ 11:41am 
this thing cant get up hills
Ghaleas 22 Sep, 2020 @ 9:29am 
This has to fall over... I don't give a fuck this has to tip over at any cost just for the meme. I'll do it. I have to...
Komrade aka Würfel 22 Sep, 2020 @ 4:33am 
Looks a bit but just a bit like the ETF-MT240.
Musket_Moophette 18 Sep, 2020 @ 9:06pm 
this is pretty epic
2ndVariable  [author] 17 Sep, 2020 @ 5:00pm 
Working on it as you speak! :)
Moon Truther 17 Sep, 2020 @ 1:43pm 
add the new stuff please
King Russell III 17 Sep, 2020 @ 8:45am 
I LOVE this vehicle! from the technological ingenuity to the actual look of it its AMAZING. If i could add one thing I would add a place for the hand held things that are coming out today(I'm super excited about that!). This in the end, is a 10/10 master piece of a vehicle.
