deadmansitting 0 Posted November 8, 2012 first you have to find the right place for repairsecond you need a toolbox Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glergo 2 Posted November 8, 2012 I have the toolbox. All the options I get is to fix the fuel tank, which is orange, so that works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted November 8, 2012 I think there's a bug with repairing damaged vehicles in the new patch unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glergo 2 Posted November 8, 2012 That really sucks. I'm stuck in a dangerous area with the best loot in the game. Great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daniel.owens@iqu.com 43 Posted November 8, 2012 That really sucks. I'm stuck in a dangerous area with the best loot in the game. Great!Not sure what that has to do with repairing vehicles.. but.. leave the area maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glergo 2 Posted November 8, 2012 Not sure what that has to do with repairing vehicles.. but.. leave the area maybe?It means that everything is lost because I can't transport my good back to camp because of some vehicle repair bug. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted November 8, 2012 The mod is still in alpha, fixing a bug only for it to break something else is pretty common this early in development. You'll have to just put up with it or downgrade to the last patch for now, 1.7.4 won't be too long. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glergo 2 Posted November 8, 2012 It's alright, I'll just leave my vehicle there and maybe when I try I a few days it'll work :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rooneye 135 Posted November 8, 2012 Just to make sure, Im sure you already do so dont get defensive if you dont (interwebz people tend to burst a blood vessel if you imply they might not know something) BUT you do definitely have the tires in your main inventory and NOT in your backpack?

Glergo 2 Posted November 8, 2012 Yes, I double checked that :D But even if you don't have the required parts, you stil get to choose which part of the car to repair unless it's completily green. But the wheels just don't show up :PI've come to accept though already that I probably will loose my gear in the car, but I'll just man up and get a new car. I've seen a few while driving through on this server I play on so I know where to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Repairing a fresh spawn is fine but once you damage the vehicle they seem to be irrepairable. :(Yes, I double checked that :D But even if you don't have the required parts, you stil get to choose which part of the car to repair unless it's completily green.

Careful with the wheels on this one though! xD Edited November 8, 2012 by mZLY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glergo 2 Posted November 8, 2012 ^ Yes, I have my camp with loads of good gear as well, so I'm not worried :DAnother question I have, if I blow up my vehicle? How long will it take for it to respawn again in another location? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mos1ey 6301 Posted November 8, 2012 (edited) Probably next server restart. Edited November 8, 2012 by mZLY Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Repairing a fresh spawn is fine but once you damage the vehicle they seem to be irrepairable. :(Ahhhh so thats why Ive been seeing lots of cars that have been abandoned after a crash. You know when you see a car at a tree or roadblock, i guess they damaged their two front wheels and couldnt fix it so had to abandon it like this guy. Makes sense now. i mainly play solo and dont really bother with cars, but thats a bitch of a bug >.< Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glergo 2 Posted November 9, 2012 Repaired the fuel tank, which gave the car a little "bump", and all of a sudden was the wheels back up. Lucky for me that no one looted my gear while my vehicle was stranded in the north-west airfield for 9 hours :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klesh 2423 Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Did you try shooting the wheels and seeing if they became available to fix?Edit: ahh, good for you! Edited November 9, 2012 by klesh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
