This goes for the municipal fire truck as well. The generator does not generate enough power when the vehicle is idling. So while using the pump or winch or other systems while running at low rpm, the battery slowly drains. I don't have a solution for this, just wanted to let you know. Otherwise awesome creations and I'm certainly hoping for more in the future. ;)

Thanks for letting me know, may i ask, how fast does it drain? how long does it take to fully drain down to 0%? You don't have to click it precisely, but just a rough estimate?

Of course! That depends on what you are doing (lights, winch, pump, etc). As far as I can tell the parking brake also uses electricity on the Unimog. So it is around 10-15 minutes I would say when just idling the engine. Maybe a few minutes more sometimes. Thanks!!

Aah ok, sounds logical, the parking brake uses a track so allso uses electricity.... i shall take a look if i can fix it in the near future

Thank you a lot. I'm not an expert but maybe just letting the engine idle a bit higher might fix that. No idea if that is possible in Stormworks though. Thanks!!

for me it only goes 9 km/h
