Containers!

In 1 collection by KI5
KI5's temp B42 collection

Description
This time something for base builders out there! ISO Containers!

Containers are perfect for storing heavy things, vehicles parts, unused furniture etc... Gas tanks have all the functions of a gas tanker trailer. Perfect for large backups of gas in your base. They will spawn all around the world, containers mostly in McCoy spawns and tanks in fossoil spawns.

They can be towed with vehicles but are slow. They are not meant to be used as trailers so don't load them up and try to drive, it will not go well. Also use something else than a Dart to tow it please.

  • B41 / B42 Compatible
  • Animated doors / removable objects
  • You can use it in your current save game, just enable the mod in the load menu
  • It can be towed
  • Not recolorable
  • You will need the Tsar's Common Library for fuel storage in B41 to work


If you like my mods, please consider supporting me with a coffee,
so I don't fall asleep while making new mods and supporting old ones :)

@DFritz06 - they are hard to move, any vehicle should be able to tow them but the bigger the better.

What works best to tow these with btw? would I need to find a flatbed trailer or something
WolfiePwnzU 2 Sep @ 6:18am 
@Plazma 400 - these items weight 2-3 tons in real life (empty) and don't have any wheels. They are not easy to move so 1-5kph is the best you'll get in game.

From experience I've found moving them in 1st gear is easier. If you car shifts up then stop, get some slack in the tow rope, then accelerate again for a 'tug' and a few seconds of driving.
Driving in reverse may also be easier and you can push up against the container. You lose more steering control but it might be quicker in a straight line. Be careful not to damage the container or your car though!

How do u tow these like I can’t get them to move

@sulo what did you change? id like to refuel the cars directly from the fuel container as well
Sulo 18 Jul @ 4:08am 
nevermind, I changed a line inside template_container_gastank.txt and now it works, I can refuel cars from the fuel container directly without a gas can
Sulo 18 Jul @ 3:10am 
So I did fill the container with fuel directly at the gas station but it seems like you cannot refuel cars directly from the container ? you must use gas can ?

Found a conflict between this mod and 'Customizable Containers' when that mods trunk setting is set to 'boosted', it makes newly spawned iso containers have just 30 inventory space.

Pretty sure its the other mods fault and reported it to them, but I'll leave a note here for those who encounter the issue.

@Wolfie you're a legend mate, thank you!

@ashbale - the containers are cars to the code, so the chance they spawn unlocked is based on that setting. If you find a locked one you may be able to find a key on a nearby zombie or object, otherwise I would suggest downloading a lockpicking mod.
