I made it work turn the merge block of first then drop then turn mugger block on

It does, its just physics around merge blocks have been really broken lately.You have to have them lined up perfectly, and even then it still explodes. Nothing I can do about it

dose this work in developer mode just cus i try cinnect the trailer and truck when they go to connect up they explde well the trailer connecter

Only workaround I can think of is just bumping a wheel over into position and letting it snap into place perhaps? Just build a suspension on the outside manually, cut it off and nudge the dropped wheel into place

yeah that looks about right, was the bed longer or just thicker bumper to colse up the wheel arch?

I am also unsure of when suspention block spacing changed but yeah for sure a working MP version might save you alot of msging if the truck gains popularity as with most things there are the select few people that dislike things that dont work perfectly first go and may whine a bit on forums. I personnaly like the challeng of when things dont work as crafing and engineering is my trade background IRL I have worked on boats, ships, cars and trucks modifing and repairing them for close to 15 years now.

Hmm. Wonder why wheel spacing changed? As for extended suspension, that truck originally game from another truck I made. Was direct decendant of the initial prototype. The later version had its wheels spread by one block, like so: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=575272768 However, it stretched out the truck and made it look a bit off. I'm not too sure how I was able to place the wheels so close like that, and not too sure when it was changed. These were made before the last two patches, so they could have snuck a change in with them. I'll see about uploading a different version to allow for proper survival usage.

Spawning in a creative game is fine all works as it should. but in survival mode is where I have issues when welding it out from a projection. Each set of wheels front and back will only allow one of the wheels to build either side without adjusting the spacing. I found it is possible to move the very front wheels froward one block and the very rear wheels one block backwards and redesign the blocks of armour that would clash with the wheels to a different shape. moving these wheels I thought would make the vehicle a bit better at dealing with ramps and slopes due to the wheel being closer to the end of the vehicle (longer wheelbase). making the wheelbase shorter was not somthing I wished to do witht this vehicle as it would cause so many problems when adding any of the modules to the back.

Currently I am still trying to get a complete redesinged truck on the gound undamaged to get a bluprint I can share with you if you wish to check and repost as a viable MP version.

So when you spawn this it spawns in without a front set/back set of wheels?

The game seems to have changed the mimimum spacing for the wheels from 2 blocks to 3. with a little bit of creativity and alot of time adjusting the front and rear bumpers of the truck you can actually move the fromt and rear wheels and make it work. the trucks handeling is a bit worse for it but is managable, but the truck doesnt look anywhere near as neat and realistic, it has more of a APC with a missing roadwheel in the middle look about it.

Design looks good, I'll give it a try. Planning to add mobile drilling rig trailer to the board?

Alrighty, good luck!

maybe? I will keep an eye on it and see if things change, as I said I love the truck and its versatility. I'll keep you posted if I find a solution (or it fixes itself)

Doesn't sound like it would. Must have been a recent game change, perhaps the patch last week. Some things seemed more broken that werent even related to the changes. Wheels may have been one of them

only mods on the server are a ship speed and rock crusher mod I would be suprised if that changed anything?

Strange, a recent change, or a mod you use(maybe) coud have effected it, shame bout that.

cheers for the reply mate I thought as much myself. I have tried every type of combo to get the pairs of wheels to bothe spawn when building but it will only let one. thanks anyway bud

The axels are two blocks apart, unless they changed how wheel placement works, everything should be fine if you space them like that

Hey

love your work with this truck its a great piece of tech to have in my fleet of land vehicles and budding mining empire.
I do have a question though about the wheel spacing, my survival server will not allow me to build the wheels as close as you have them in the blueprint whas there anything you done differently to get them to build that close originally?
