V3S Explodes after hitting tree

Recommended Posts

Date/Time: 10 July

What happened: I hit a tree going about 10 mph with a V36 truck. It caught fire and exploded within 30 seconds

Where you were: Somewhere north of Cherno

What you were doing: Stealing some poor sods truck. Got in it, turned it on, hit a tree when trying to take it offroad.

If the truck had a red hull/engine, hitting anything could cause it to blow up, despite being able to ram down trees normally.

This is not a bug, it is normal. When a vehicle has a red/ornage engine, one tap against something hard can make your vehicle explode. The engine acts as the healthbar of the vehicle, no health + tiny tap = KABOOM!
