The good news: It appears to be working without much issue in 1.6

The bad: The upgrade things are all grey'd out save for the 4 bed weapons facing forward.

More good: You can still upgrade as normal.

1.6? I need the 2021 Ford F-150 on my rim

@C:\Program Files\Porn - Laser charge packs. They're made at a machining table.

Помимо этого мода*

Здравствуйте, подскажите пожалуйста чем заряжается лазерная турель у машины
Просто помимо этого много еще всяких и в итоге не пойму xD
Заранее благодарен)

Yes

Can I add this mid save?

I have a very similar vehicle planned, whenever I return to vehicle modding.

any chance we'll be paying 600 dollars on insurance for an 02 honda accord in the future?

got it thanks :)

Fabrication

what research is needed before i can build a car please, thanks

Hello! Is it possible to find this car as junk?
My research level is limited and I can't research this car, but I so want to get it.

@:D - It's a problem with most armored vehicles in CE, I've noticed that too. I want to make it to where the autonomous turrets become disabled after the vehicle takes enough damage, but there's currently a bug with VF preventing me from doing that for turrets added by upgrades.

Once that's fixed it shouldn't be nearly as exploitable.

Normally this is a non-issue since enemies stop shooting at decrewed vehicles, but the L-ATV has autonomous turrets so it can solo arbitrarily large raids so long as it doesn't show its butt, and has enough ammo.

I'm not sure if it's this mod, or just a thing with VF and CE, but most of your vehicles are unreasonably tanky.
Centipede blasters run out of ammo before they can kill an unarmored F-150. The body integrity is stuck at 41%, since incoming shots meant for intact parts are blocked by already destroyed parts. In VF a vehicle is destroyed if all its parts have 0% HP, so vehicles just tank damage forever.

It's incredibly difficult to get a vehicle killed. You'd have to intentionally get it flanked.

I gotta say I love all the vehicles you are making, they are practical and useful in many different ways

What's the prereq for the Cargo Rack upgrade? It keeps telling me I'm missing a prereq.

Can it survive the incredible hulk?

@GrahammerTek how do you shoot and convoy?

Nevermind, after few trips with the car, he suddenly started upgrading

@GrahammerTek Hello i really really like this mod, but after third playthrough out of nowhere when i built Ford F-150 my colonist won't upgrade it no matter what i do, even all his type of jobs are shut down except builder, yet he won't upgrade, i even waited for 3 game days, but he changes the paint with no problem. (i play with one colonist only, so i hope this is not the problem)

@fres - Try clicking Regenerate All Regions in the Vehicle Framework's mod settings. This is a fairly common bug with the framework itself, and this usually fixes it.

@GrahammerTek I can't move around in the truck? Whenever I try to, it just says "Ford F-150 Cannot Reach this Area". This is an issue with the other Gtek vehicles. It worked just fine before and I didn't install any new mods so I'm not sure what is causing this issue.

Is there a fix for this?

Thanks!

@ZG_Zebra39 - laser charge pack, which requires Pulse charged munitions research and is made at a fabrication bench.

What ammo is used for the laser turret?

@UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - They are visible on the truck bed. Damage-wise, they work the same way as regular pawns riding in vehicles.

@Thegraphitecrate - That's likely a problem with Vehicle Framework itself. You can't prioritize upgrades, and pawns set to construction will work on it when they have no other tasks. Might just have a lot of tasks.

question. For the vehicles, are pawns visible on the truck bed / able to be hit whilst firing / sitting there?

That'd be cool. Thanks.

im having an issue where i can select the upgrade but after all the materials are placed in the ford my colonists cant build the upgrade nor can i prioritize it with the context menu

I love the idea that some random rimworld people are desperately trying to build a Ford from scratch

How about a 1963 VW Beetle?

I have a problem with having the ford move when I turn it on it will move when it's heading somewhere but wont let me control it

@GrahammerTek - Thank you, I wouldn't have thought of that, I had an old version for 1.4 still, it was disabled, but somehow affecting the savegame.

PRAISE BE,

Btw, why you pivoted from engine industies mod? I like their engine crafting scheme.

I am currently running the M2 with the CLWS and I can pretty much body just about anything. Insects, tribals, outlanders, It takes about 3 or 4 seconds for the megapedes and armored insects but it still pretty much vaporizes them. Don't get me wrong I'm having a blast but the numbers might need to be looked at

@Asterza - Yeah, I'm still torn about how to balance the laser. It absolutely crushes anything lightly armored, but barely does anything at all to heavily armored mechs like Centipedes.

It uses the same stats as the laser minigun from VE laser weapons, but since it's vehicle mounted it suffers none of the drawbacks, other than the expensive ammo. I might end up lowering the damage/penetration, since I only intended for it to be for hordes of tribals and stuff.

the CLWS deletes literally everything lol. A fully upgraded f150 puts my Heavy battle tank to absolute shame

@SophicDragon - Do you have multiple versions of CE installed? I've usually seen that error when people have both the Github version and Steam version of CE installed, which causes Rimworld to get confused and breaks the CE patch files.

I had a user a few days ago with the same problem and that's what fixed it.

Currently having an issue where the turrets don't work, it throws an InvalidCastException at the moment it would fire related to the projectile. The ammo is also being displayed as steel. Issue also affects the Subaru. I use CE and vehicle framework/vanilla vehicles and there's no problem with any of them that I've seen. Any idea what might be causing this?

does it break down after 6 quadrums like a real 2020+ vehicle?

FINALLY A Technical with a machine gun!!! i love a dakka dakka technical and its the lord allmighty FORD F150!!

Yea i tested it further and you are correct however I have seen some implement a fix by using steel as an ammo type
Great mod either way

@baconprison - Vehicles in general don't work well with generic/disabled ammo, and I haven't seen a way to fix that.

this mod does not appear to use a generic alternative when CE ammo is disabled preventing gun usage on a play-through without it

To name just a few uncommon mods that have anything to do with vehicles, there's "You Drive, I Sleep", "Space Cowboy Vehicles", and "VVE Deconstructable Vehicles Junk". And I can't test them right now.

I've got too many mods to name, but specifically I reconstructed a vehicle from a wreckage and when I tried to drive it the right click just wouldn't do anything.
I lucky-guessed that this mod was the problem and now I can't drive ford.

That's odd, how do they break and with which mods?

I've been given clinical depression because the Ford mod breaks all of my vehicles.
