Driving Extras
Every car and bike gets a round-gauge HUD, cruise control, nitro, seat switching, passengers who can shoot and a car radio that plays internet stations. The keys show as key images on the HUD.
How it works
- Cruise: Z (gamepad D-pad right) holds your speed; brake or press it again to drop it.
- Nitro: G for a burst of speed while the canister lasts; craft Nitro Canisters to refill it.
- Switch seats: H moves you to the next free seat without getting out.
- Passengers hold their own gun and shoot from the seat; R reloads. Aim with the dot-and-circle crosshair.
- Radio: J turns it on or off, K and L skip stations. You hear it in your head, not from the car.
Tips
- Crafting: the VEHICLES tab (backpack and workbench) lists every vehicle, its parts and its kits, from any mod. Pick a vehicle's recipe and press MODS to see only the kits that fit it.
- Parts wear as you drive: Tire Patch Kits and the Engine Overhaul Kit put them right. Press E on a vehicle to see its CONDITION (engine %, tank %, flat tires); a small condition line also shows on the driving HUD and when you look at a parked vehicle.
- Vehicle Adventures magazines go to level 150 in The Hollow: Tire Patch Kits at 10, the OG Minibike at 22 (its kits 23-29), Engine Overhaul Kits at 30, Nitro Canisters, the Hollow Volt Bike and the Hollow Charging Station at 40, every vanilla vehicle mod along the way (schematics still teach them too), the gyrocopter at 110, the Raider Bus at 125 and the Chinook at 150, with the Bone Reaper at 50, the Trail Rig at 75, the Warhauler at 85 the Hollow Wasp at 95 and the electric Hollow Razorback at 105. The Magazines & Books page lists them all.
- Vehicle mods have no quality: every one has one fixed strength, crafted, found or bought. The Reserve Fuel Tank adds 85% to the tank, the Fuel Saver cuts fuel use by 45%.
- Our Hollow vehicles take their own kits for the parts you see on them (light bars, racks, jerrycans, armour...), unlocked just after the vehicle in Vehicle Adventures. Where two of them carry the same part, one kit fits both (Trail Rig + Warhauler, Skid Loader + Raider Bus). The vanilla mods still fit the vanilla vehicles.
- Gyrocopters fly like helicopters: they hold their height when you let go.
- The keys can be changed in settings.xml of the DSD_Vehicles mod.
