Trailers!
a very turtle situation 🐢
Hello! I love your vehicles, the attention to details while keeping the models lowpoly is wonderful!

On our server we often experience a situation when trailers (this includes your other trailers, like humvee etc) end up flipped upside down, usually due to desync, and those are impossible to unflip. People have to open tickets, then admins have to come and spawn a new trailer, wait until player moves all their stuff from the old trailer to the new one after which admin can despawn the flipped trailer. This wastes a lot of time for everyone involved.
The solution I wanted to suggest is to add a slight invisible rounding to the top part of trailer models. Strong rounding would make them unflip themselves right away, but proper slight rounding should still allow trailers to flip upside down but should also make it possible for players to unflip their trailers on their own by bumping into it just like the turtles do to help each other.

Thank you!

pz doesn't have a detailed collision detection for vehicles, you only get boxes. admins should be able to rotate the trailers with debug, there were some mods for flipping vehicles also, but not sure if they are maintained any more
maybe it is possible to create an extra box on top which is narrower to form some sort of slope? Sorry I don't have detailed knowledge about this part of the game but for instance your beetle buggy is almost impossible to land flat on the roof, it almost always recovers itself and if it ends up flat on the roof then it is pretty easy to unflip by bumping into it

I have this same issue in my server. Would love to know how to rotate things with debug or another mod.

in debug mode -> right click the vehicle, use vehicle angle ui, then set the Z axis to 0.
