Transporting a tent????
How does one go about transporting a tent.
I have a truck. I have an Alicepack and I have a tent. I can wear either the pack or the tent on my back. I can carry the either in my hands but I can't carry them into the truck and NEITHER (for F*** knows what reason) will fit in the truck's inventory space.
On what earth does a tent (even a MASSIVE tent) not fit in a truck? In what universe will a rucksack fit on your back but NOT in a truck?

How do I keep my truck, my alicepack, my tent and my f*****g mind and still keep playing this game?

The small civilian tent fits in backback (it is 2x5 slots) and military big tent can be in hands or as a backpack and it fits in truck easy. Did you checked you have enough space for tent in truck or mb some ♥♥♥♥ is blocking it

dont think you can buddy you could empty your back pack into the truck and keep the tent on ur back while in the truck but then you will need to find another backpack :( if you set the tent up you can put the backpack in there but that doesnt help much lol

i dont bother much with the alice packs way too big and easy to get spotted while wearing one etc

you need to empty the backpack contents into the truck inventory, then add the backpack into the truck inventory, wear the tent as a backpack.
the grey vs3 trucks are crap, the wont carry a military tent, you have to wear it and drive, the orange vs3 with wooden sides will carry a mili tent.
you cannot add anything containing anything else into the inventory of something, ie a coat with items in its pockets wont go into a backpack, a backpack with items in it wont go into a tent or truck

Take a bus, both driver and passenger can get in carrying anything.

A cooking pot with items in it will go in your backpack ... just sayin :-)

ah yes i forgot about that, i think that is the only exception
a cooking pot has four item slots (2x2) and can carry water at the same time as carrying four items, plus the items dont get wet, its very clever.

Not quite... The protector case and waterproof bag can as well. The case has 6 slots, and takes up the same space in the backpack (used to only take up 4, though), and the waterproof bag has 12 slots (and takes up 12 in the pack). Both can be stored in your backpack (or tent, barrel, vehicle, etc.) while fully loaded. I currently have one of each stored in the truck I'm using on my server, loaded with some basic supplies.

As for this...

The color of the truck is irrelevant. It is true that the V3S chassis may not be worth the trouble, since I believe it has just barely enough space to haul a single barrel, while the V3S cargo (the one with the wooden bed) might be the best scavenger's vehicle in the game (albeit the slowest). From what I've seen to date, both variants come in all the same colors... Currently, on my server, I've come across the V3S cargo truck in orange, green, and gray, and before the last wipe, I found and used a blue one.
