Rolling Changelog 0.9.36 Vehicle Capacity

[Foxx 137]

TBH I'm not sure if you guys are just kidding with the current changelog data for the capacities..

Strider can carry to much, same for the Hunter and Ifrit...3k would be fine i think, as they dont have much space IRL..

Van (Box) has more capacity as a real Truck - nice joke! Increase the Zamak, Tempest and HEMMT at least to 7k than...

[Paul 104]

I agree, the Lorries should have more capacity than the box vans. Also, the chinnock should have a decent capacity on it as well.

Will the capacities be changeable by us, I wonder?

Hi Dev team, don't set capacity to high, i tested with the box pod,(holds 10k) and hit the limit, did not like 1000 wood logs

In Arma 3 the max length of String returned by format command seems to be 8191 characters. formatText doesn't seem to have this limitation.

PS. please set the Strider, Ifrit and hunter down, now there is no reason to use other vehicles !!! Down to 2000 or something and the Zamak, Tempest and HEMMT to 5-6k

100% agreed.. 2000 is a good number for Strider. Hunter and Ifrit are already at 2k cargo, leave those as is. Some of us have added HMG versions so having all that cargo and a safe weapon to shoot from is OP like a mofo. Van should be lower, around 3500. Zamak Tempest and HEMMT should be WAY more. 5,6,7k respectively.

[itsatrap 251]

Yeah, there are no downside to buy Strider. Hunter or Ifrit, plus default prices are so low you can get a strider in 1/2 - 1 hour

[READTHESCROLL 203]

Heres my take on what I think they should be.. I'd even go lower with the ifrit/strider/hunter and go maybe 1k-1500 cargo.

Why would you loot something fully vulnerable with a Truck if you could use a Armored Vehicle with just 1k less Capacity,

and maybe roll some guys over for extra 500 respect.

Fully agree there need to be some changes

[Rob 5]

Hello,

I have a similar opinion like most people and suggestions here in this thread.
I hope the devs implement the ideas here.

Road kills will reduce your respect by -5

[READTHESCROLL 203]

That's not standard then..

class Frags
		{
			bambi = -500;				// Bambi slayers
			friendlyFire = -100;		// For party members
			standard = 100;				// Normal kill
			letItRain = 150;			// MG, also vehicle MGs
			humiliation = 300;			// Axe
			passenger = 400;			// Out of car/chopper/boat
			roadKill = 500;				// :)
			bigBird = 600;				// Roadkill, but with chopper/plane
			chuteGreaterChopper = 600; 	// Someone flies into chute and chopper/plane explodes
