Better Towing

In 1 collection by Aiteron
Aiteron modpack [B41]
41 items
Description
Initially, this mod added its own towing physics with a rope and a rigid hitch. But the developers liked this mod and they added the towing option to the game!
( link to development blog [projectzomboid.com])

Mod expands and improves towing, which is added to the game.
Supported version: 41.x

More details:
Support for mods that add new cars
All mods that are added cars, but which have not been updated to support trailers, will work with trailers!

Added "Tow bar" item and the ability to tow a car like a trailer
Now you can tow a car and stay with unbroken trunk!
** Towing with a rope is possible without an item (like every car have tow rope)

Advanced physics
Parking brake. Now you need to remove from the parking brake to tow the car. You can also remove the handbrake and simply push the car off the road.
Small changes in physics balance.

Special towing vehicle
Added support for tow truck. The tow truck can attach a car to a hook. It is also easier to use a tow truckto remove burnt-out cars from the road.
And you can flip upright the car!

!The mod does not add a tow truck to the game!
Here's an example of a mod that adds a tow truck to the game:
Tow Truck - Chevalier Rhino



Improved interface
Added icons for different types of cars and different types of towing. Added multilevel selection menu. The menu sees several cars at once and you can select the type of hook.
Icon Author: harrycheez ( Steam Profile )

The ability to push the car with your hands
Now you can move a car that is stuck due to a bug or for another reason



Mods that complement this mod well:
Tow Truck - Chevalier Rhino
Special towing vehicle

Autotsar Trailers
New types of trailers: RV home, tanker, different trailers

Filibuster Rhymes' Used Cars!
Many new cars

Crashed cars
Adds a large number of damaged cars


Incompatible mods:
Let me think

Instruction
When cars are near - open the radial menu (V key) and select to attach the car.
Release the parking brake before towing. (radial menu inside vehicle)
An object is required for towing with a tow bar. A tow bar attaches to the front of one vehicle and the rear of another.


Supported languages:
- English
- Russian
- Polish (Thanks to geras)
- German (Thanks to 0xM4RC3L)
- French (Thanks to Zerless)

Need help translating!

Spent a lot of time on this mod. Play with pleasure =)

Why is it this truck only drives at like , 2 MPH when towing cars ?
I mean i get that trucks may be to heavy to haul with a 1-Ton truck , but cars should be totally fine.
I am a 10 year towing vet and i know what can be towed. to be fair , Pick-up Trucks should work too but the truck falls on is A$s when you lift it.
It works , but i cannot drive more than 2-3 MpH.

Ya sunday driver is a 1 pint negative not being able to tow any cars while having it is way to harsh.

I don’t think you can tow the newer Filibuster cars with this mod, I tried towing a Kichiro sedan but didn’t have the option to use a tow bar, unless you can only use a towbar from the front.

With Sunday Driver trait, u can't tow any vehicles other than trailers, i don't know if that should be like this.

I get a few bit of errors when using this mod, you think I can send you the log file and see if its caused by other mods or if its just this?

Is there a difference between using Tow bar and not using Tow bar?
To be exact, I would like to know the purpose of Tow bar at 41 iwbums.

Can we have a better localisation files ?
Some stuff are missing in translation (like the push thing on radial menu) and after that, it become perfect ! :)
btw thank you for giving your time

@Pyro Did you forget to turn the parking break off?
