I have a bug with this mod;
When I drive a truck without trailer its a good speed but, when its has a trailer its very slow...
I searched this issue in google and;

The Project Zomboid W900 semi-truck, particularly when loaded, can experience significant speed reductions, even to the point of feeling slow. This is due to the game's physics engine and how it handles weight and vehicle stress. The truck's speed is noticeably impacted by the weight it carries, with a full load potentially reducing its speed by a large margin

How I can solve this issue pls ?

How does one make the Freezer unit?
I got all material, all skill levels are up to code, got light, a surface to craft on, but it still won't let me build it. Does it require a specific recipe?

hello, I have the same problem as @NotSoNinjaJoe, I have the trailer (in my case the animal transport trailer) and the truck but I can't find the way to hook it up, can anyone help me?

Hello, I only have one problem and that is that when I change the tire it asks me to put on the brake and suspension when in fact they are on and it still doesn't let me put on the spare tire... why is this?

Thank you @Scadrian Street Rat. That gave me access to inventory. Seconding that you can only access the trunk/back only if the doors are visible.

its acting so slow, like im talking 700kg of weight in back, me + two passengers, and its going 8mph down the straight highway at its max while burning through the tank at a visible pace, i wont even make it from muldraugh to rosewood in one full tank?

This mod will conflict with the WEEK ONE NPC mod, causing the flashed trailer to disappear after a few seconds

You have to do it from the driver seat

Can't attach the cattle trailer to the truck. Not sure what's wrong. No error shows up. There's just no option in the vehicle radial or the right-click menu.
I tried using the Car Flatbed to load the 88 Toyota Hilux and the 82 Pontiac Firebird. Neither would load onto the trailer. Hope those two could be green lit in the future. other than that. lovin the mod!

Box truck inventory is only accessible when the doors are visible. You have to physically rotate the truck so that the rear doors are facing the camera in order to access the items inside the container.

How can i open a lock the container???

Thinking about using this, is there any info on |DT| Striker's problem? Makes me worried to use this
|DT| Striker 26 May @ 7:22am 
The trunk window stopped opening, there is a sound of opening and closing, but there is no place to put the loot =(, I had a lot of things there that I looted 450+ and now they are stuck there, loot from all over a small town.

make sure that Tsars common library is the build 42 version and if so go into load order in mods and drag tsars common lib above the truck mod
YungDeath69 21 May @ 6:13am 
I can't enable this mod, it says it requires a tsarslib dependency which I did download. Idk what''s wrong here?

Just a little bit higher horse power(around 450-470hp), this truck would be perfect, cause even it's half-loaded, it will be hard to accelerate or brake through the hordes.
behemoth227 14 May @ 5:17pm 
I tried a few variants of the F Series pickups, and the Econoline vans. Front bumper to rear of the trailer, even tried the left and right sides of the trailer, and backing up to it, no luck.
Beathoven  [author] 14 May @ 2:20am 
Is it the newest cars? Maybe I missed to add some, the names would be great
behemoth227 14 May @ 1:29am 
Does the flatbed trailer not play nice with KI5 vehicles? I've tried to load several trucks and vans and the grayed out load button is always there. Is it only for smaller vehicles, maybe?

Bacchus, i found one in a big parking lot, try going to louisville or any other big city, theres a high change it spawns there
Bacchus 6 May @ 5:23pm 
It's been 11 days in game and I haven't come across one of these trucks yet. Do they spawn in specific spots or is it random?
Hun73r 3 May @ 3:04pm 
10mph with tanker on the back ??
ogrshrek 2 May @ 9:14am 
Hi. I found a few trucks and all of there have 375 HP only but on YouTube trucks has 650 HP.
Vexx 27 Apr @ 5:33pm 
Thx @ Nocontrol i try
San Nabi 27 Apr @ 4:06pm 
Hello, speed is too low (full speed at 20mph) when pulling oil tank (2000 capacity one). Is this a bug or intended?
Ferrus 26 Apr @ 12:42pm 
hi all hope some one can shed some light on this - when using my petyabuild 379 i can only do about 1mph when pulling the tanker - other trailers im able to pull no problem - any thing im doing wrong
NoControl 26 Apr @ 12:19pm 
Vexx just uninstall the door and re install it
Vexx 24 Apr @ 8:14pm 
All Trailers i found are closed. how can i open?
NoControl 24 Apr @ 4:41pm 
So, I can turn on and of the freezer inside the truck but looks like it is not really doing anything... any ideas if it is a bug or not?
thx

would be cool to have an optional upgrade to put a box on the back of the regular semi at the expense of losing the trailer hitch
Flexible Games 20 Apr @ 10:45am 
Would it be possible to allow the car flatbed to hold more than one car?
I started a collection and 80% of my time is spent driving to and from distant towns and would like to bring more than one back at a time.
🔰 20 Apr @ 12:37am 
one was the VanJonesFabrication and the other i just noticed has a smashed in left side and that might be why it doesnt work (pzkchevaliersmashedleft or something)

i tested a common pzkchevalier and that worked so i guess i needed to do more testing :D sorry to bother!
Beathoven  [author] 19 Apr @ 11:33pm 
yea maybe its not in the list, would be good if you write which one it was.
🔰 19 Apr @ 7:33pm 
dont know if im stupid or something but how do you actually get a car on the flatbed trailer? i parked with the car at the non attached end with hood right at the end, then with back to it, set it to both sides but its always : there is no car or it is not eligible or something.

how is this supposed to work? and does it work with modded vehicles? what cars arent eligible?
Beathoven  [author] 19 Apr @ 1:42pm 
@Mystake cant reproduce the issue, maybe you have some other mod interfering.
Noisy Koi 19 Apr @ 9:45am 
wild idea, but what if you could add a tow hitch to the trailer so that you can tow a trailer behind the trailer and have yourself a land train?
This would mainly be useful for things like towing a fuel tank behind your cargo trailer or something like that, add a bit more versatility at the expense of worrying about it getting caught on a tree around a tight turn or something
Mystake 19 Apr @ 9:34am 
Towing a full fuel tanker - no problem.
Towing an empty dry van (the black trailer) - can barely get over 20mph.
[YGG] Ainul 17 Apr @ 5:30pm 
Truck os really slow when attached now
[YGG] Ainul 17 Apr @ 5:17pm 
New update: Just found out that the mod "Harder Hotwire" isn't compatible (don't know If I wrote this right) with the w900.
Anyone having this mod, won't be able to attach the truck with the trailers.
Jackof Phallustifp 8 Apr @ 6:08pm 
I wish in the future updates, we can convert the trailer into a house
154 2 Apr @ 8:43am 
basic hp is toooooo low
Beathoven  [author] 2 Apr @ 12:38am 
Doable? Maybe?
Beyond my abilities? Definitely! :)

Sadly it sounds easier than it is.
tokarevgaming 1 Apr @ 10:13pm 
Disappointed that the flatbed trailer can only hold one car...figured it should be able to fit two or three. :(

Is it not possible to make the trailer hold multiple vehicles, with radial menu options to add or remove them?
hippie3c 27 Mar @ 6:37am 
@Beathoven okay thats gotta be my issue then i just seen the first b42 port of svu and got it i appreciate the info
Dieemzie 26 Mar @ 10:29am 
I believe I've found the culprit. After 2 days of testing, loading in one mod after another, it's my educated guess it's "Harder Hotwire" that kicks out the + from the V-wheel.
I've tested it: Load it before W900 and it's good to go again.
Vic Night 25 Mar @ 3:21pm 
i cant seem to drive the semi inside a garage door wel the semitruck can but the trailer cant seem to get inside i had simelar mod on 41 and there it was posible but now i cant park inside my base is there something i can do for this
Beathoven  [author] 25 Mar @ 10:21am 
do you have the right version of svu?the one that uses tsarslib or the kitsunelib one?
Kitsunelib is the only known mod for interfering with this function.
hippie3c 25 Mar @ 9:19am 
im having an issue attaching a trailer to my semi , im in the driver seat but get no + i have autotsar installed and the only other vehicle mod i have is standard vehicle upgrades could that be causing this
Manterok 23 Mar @ 6:32pm 
I've really been enjoying this, but I spawned in a bx truck and it's acting like there are no doors. I spawned one the other day and it was fine, but today, nope.I tried it twice. Other versions seemed to work. It could be a mod conflict but I just wanted to mention it.
