Can you do it so you can hook it with a rope?

Can I use this tool to connect three cars?

will this prevent rearendings when towing?
Krilton 13 Nov, 2023 @ 9:56am 
So this mod cancels out the in-game tow mechanics? If that is the case, my apology.
AuD  [author] 13 Nov, 2023 @ 1:29am 
no one said that, it's a mod that adds difficulty in order to tow a vehicle, by finding a traction bar....
Krilton 12 Nov, 2023 @ 8:41pm 
This is no better than the in game tow system. sigh..... Kudos for the attempt though.

Adds a bit of immersion but the towing is still complete dog garbo

I mean, driving around and turn will still be like the vanilla rope, the towed car will drift.

me, in my town, i have not zombies ^^
AuD  [author] 31 Jan, 2023 @ 12:50am 
not in the game ^^, this is a gamplay
btochavelas 30 Jan, 2023 @ 4:42pm 
in my town we use a simpe rope :)
Coral Sea CV-43 25 Jan, 2023 @ 8:33pm 
It still same rope
purity 15 Jan, 2023 @ 6:55am 
wish it had the same towing physics as the pre 71 version of better towing, being able to tow cars like trailers with a tow bar

"what I mean, in vanilla it seems to me that vehicles can detach on their own? to know... ^^"
I though every car has it's towing system
Haaris 16 Dec, 2022 @ 6:28pm 
Good for immersion but doesnt help with the physics .. physics is still the same vanilla shitty towing
CarlosRojasCu 15 Dec, 2022 @ 6:12am 
Thank you... :) :steamhappy:
AuD  [author] 15 Dec, 2022 @ 6:05am 
no affect the maniability, just a item for alowed the action to attach car to car.

if you have item tow bar in your inventory, you can attach, no hands needded
CarlosRojasCu 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:49am 
One last question, does the bar need to be equipped in the hands? Or can it be inside a backpack or inventory?
CarlosRojasCu 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:47am 
I've never noticed it... interesting fact. I will start using your mod, I like the mobility of the rear car better with your mod.
AuD  [author] 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:36am 
what I mean, in vanilla it seems to me that vehicles can detach on their own? to know... ^^
CarlosRojasCu 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:26am 
Ok, I'll report any problems...
AuD  [author] 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:25am 
I don't know if this happens, is it possible that the car sometimes comes loose (by itself)? I know it happens with caravans, but with towed cars, I don't know.
CarlosRojasCu 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:24am 
Ok, I hope at some point you can learn how to do it. Thanks.
AuD  [author] 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:21am 
look is like video
AuD  [author] 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:20am 
No, I would have liked it, but I don't know how to do it yet.
CarlosRojasCu 15 Dec, 2022 @ 5:16am 
Impressive... more realistic. Thanks. One question, the bar is not seen between both cars?
AuD  [author] 15 Dec, 2022 @ 4:33am 
I would like there to be two people needed, one in the tractor car, and one in the towed car.
TheBwnH3d 15 Dec, 2022 @ 1:44am 
I can get on board with this, think it should be a vanilla option. Towing as normal with a rope that has little to no control on the vehicle or use a tow bar that acts like towing a trailer.
a three-colored carp 15 Dec, 2022 @ 12:38am 
Because once they made the car follow at a further distance, it became extremely frustrating to tow a car. It veers into other lanes and punishes you for things outside of your control. In my opinion, they ruined the towing system by making the car follow at a longer distance.

It used to be challenging but satisfying when you towed a car. Now it's punishing and nearly impossible to do right
AuD  [author] 14 Dec, 2022 @ 11:33pm 
but why do you want closer distance?
AuD  [author] 14 Dec, 2022 @ 11:30pm 
it doesn't change anything on the vanilla parameter side, you just need the item to perform the "attach" action
a three-colored carp 14 Dec, 2022 @ 11:17pm 
Does the towed vehicle still follow at the same distance as a vanilla towed car? I could get down with this mod if it made it so the car followed at a closer distance, like we saw in previous versions of the game
