RUBBLER Hauler - Compact Cargo and Tanker Vehicle

In 1 collection by Lorgs

Description
The Rubbler Hauler is a super compact tank tracked vehicle with its own trailer. It has a top speed of 40kph and two passenger seats in addition to the driver seat. It is fast and agile, and built to be a sturdy terrain climber. The trailer has a fuel with 1400 liters capacity containing diesel, and also a general cargo area.

Start-up:

Sit down in the driver seat.

Flip the “MAIN POWER” switch.

Click the “ENGINE ON” button.

You use [W/S] to go forwards or backwards, and [A/D] to steer. Steering when not going throttling forwards or backwards will make it turn on the spot.

You can use the “PARKING BRAKE” switch on the dashboard to lock the brakes or press [1] to quickly brake.


Useful info

On the left side is an electrical connector connected to the battery, and a fluid connector going to the fuel tank. (Diesel)

You can also use the left/right arrow buttons to use the indicators.

The more you use the engine, the more the battery gets charged.

The trailer has its own batteries and gets charged with the batteries from the Hauler.

The trailer has pumps to both take fuel in and out from the tanks.

yes but IRL the tracks are powered! Tank tracks can weigh several tons and require several hundreds of horse power just to get the vehicle rolling. Wheels have close to no resistance in weight, so having tracks on a vehcile unpowered is just carrying dead weight adding loads of friction. The tracks in stormworks are pretty much just wheels with added tracktion and some more torque requirement. But IRL, the only option for an unpowered trailer is wheels.

At least in real life it wouldn't have any benefits at all, so I'm keeping it realistic and using wheels. Don't know if the game accounts for the weight resistance from the tracks like it would IRL

Because tracks are a waste of friction when not powered.
