Hey guys,
I do not know how to make mods. I am not smart enough for that.
However, I do have an idea for a mod, that could add a bit of gameplay: a bridge that can collapse under a certain load. A light truck would be able to go through, but a big heavy truck would break it.
The way it could be done is by using the breakout threshold that you can see in some XML files (for example the XML files of the small and medium trees). Two or more of the bridge pilars could have a breakout threshold, and as such could break or simply fall, getting the bridge to collapse.
What do you think? Could it be feasible?
It would add a bit more game play, as the creator of a map could choose that a shortcut to a sawmill can only be used by small 3-log trucks, for example.
An overconfident player could destroy a path to a sawmill/log station/garage/gas station.
I know there are already the block posts (I think that's how they are called), but these barriers only block trucks that are loaded with logs. Not trucks with other add-ons such as semi trailers. And they block all trucks loaded with logs, a b130 with 2 log points and a e7310 with 8 log points...
I'm sure we could find other ideas of application.
Do you think that's a good idea, and is it feasible?
I posted that in the Mod section, as I am sure the devs are not going to implement such new thing in mudrunner (maybe the USA version, but even that, I strongly doubt it).
Thanks!
