its because you didn't put spaces before or after the link, so it thinks the ( and ) are part of the link

@WolfiePwnzU - Steam is such a pain. It is a copy of the link to the actual Steam page. They must not trust their own site I guess. Yes that is the mod I am referring to. I will need to find the trailer and then test it out on the container, if I can find one without dying.

@Dreacon - Steam seems to think that link is dodgy and blocks it, but I am assuming you are referring to the Autotsar Trailers - Hauler mod. I've not tried it personally, but I assume this would work unless there is anything in the Containers! mod that blocks that specific action.
Dreacon May 30 @ 5:56pm 
Seeing how the containers are treated as cars in the game, would this mod (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2992677535&searchtext=trailer) allow you to use a trailer to move the container?
TheMotorMouth May 15 @ 1:20pm 
for servers does this mod need to be in the map mods section so you can enter inside the containers?

Can I craft them?

Are the fuel tankers refillable and how do I do it?

@GeenSpleen You're absolutely right, thanks for the tip.
Kingdark May 1 @ 2:13am 
You can't go 'in' them then? That's kind of the first thing I tried to do.

Why not just stick wheels on the "vehicles"? I still have only seen one to in all my play hours. They look cool though.
Rinzler Apr 16 @ 12:27pm 
jesus even with a tank this bitch it tough to move...
Mojocaesar Apr 11 @ 4:26pm

Ryan Apr 6 @ 7:17am

@Weener101 - read literally 2&3 comments below yours
Weener101 Mar 21 @ 5:12am 
hello
i have found a gas container and iv found a flat bed truck. was wondering if theres anyway to put the container on the back of it or if theres a lorry or some kind to tow/ attach to it?
GreenSpleen Mar 15 @ 11:08pm 
@brk4m1k4z3br - are running the Week one Mod by Slayer? His mod stops trailers spawimg for the first 7 days to balance it. After the nuke or 9 am Friday trailers should then spawn .
WolfiePwnzU Mar 13 @ 10:12am 
@Ryoko Darkstar - I think a lot of folks would love that, but with the way vehicles are implemented I am not sure it's possible. The shipping containers are considered as 'cars' and you can't stack cars in the game (at the moment)
Ryoko Darkstar Mar 13 @ 4:36am 
It would be nice to have a semi that could hoist the containers up onto the flatbed, making transport much easier than just praying for straight roads. Hitting zombies with your vehicle slows you down moving these awesome things by quite a bit.

@brk4m1k4z3br, none that i know, i'm running this mod with more 79(80 total), and i havent any issues, most of the mods i have are most popular though.

If that happens it may be a mod conflict on your end, i just finished a test with the recent patch(42.5), and i dont have any issues, even burnt ones spawned.

@KI5, thank you from the bottom of my heart for your work, dedication and active development of your mods.

Cheers.
brk4m1k4z3br Mar 11 @ 4:20pm 
First of all, thank you so much for your effort! I definitely love your mods.

Is there any conflict with other mods in B42? I'm running some tests with the debug mod, and whenever I spawn any container, it appears momentarily and then disappears.
WolfiePwnzU Mar 8 @ 2:05pm 
@jaargo2000 - that's incredibly useful to know, thanks!
I have always used a lockpicking mod so not really had to hunt around for keys to them.
jaargo2000 Mar 8 @ 1:37pm 
@Trice & @ Wolfie
I can confirm that keys CAN spawn for these. I found a burned out container spawn in front of a farm house and found a key for it on a zombie and a second in a drawer in the house
WolfiePwnzU Mar 8 @ 2:14am 
@Only Farms - these items weight 2-3 tons in real life and don't have any wheels. They are not easy to move so 1-5kph is the best you'll get.

From experience I've found moving them in 1st gear is easier. If you car shifts up then stop, get some slack, then accelerate again for a 'tug' and a few seconds of driving.
Driving in reverse may also be easier.
Only Farms Mar 7 @ 11:54pm 
how can you move this? I tow this on different kind of vehicle but it is moving very slow like 1-5kph
WolfiePwnzU Mar 7 @ 3:31pm 
@Thrice - the containers are 'cars' in the game code, but I am not sure if keys can spawn for them.
You can either break the door or remove the door (I think that works)
Thrice Mar 7 @ 12:53pm 
How do you open these if theyre locked?
OxTailSafu Mar 6 @ 4:43pm 
@WolfiePwnzU - Thank you! I'll try that when I get the chance.

Btw is anyone else getting errors when trying to examine the storage with the radial menu?
SexyPanda Mar 4 @ 6:18pm 
Good evening brothers and sisters, I hope the zombie exterminatus has been going well for everyone. I bring fourth a question to the adeptus mechanicus of this mod, I know of your love bring joy to our dreary lives. Is it possible to make a change that would allow us to build cargo containers as non-movable buildings, like the chicken hutch ?
GUESSWHAT Feb 28 @ 3:57pm 
M998 can barely move the container LOL, need bigger guy in B42
NO_ID Feb 28 @ 12:31pm 
so the fuel storage doesn't work on b42 only b41 ?
WolfiePwnzU Feb 27 @ 2:01pm 
@xKonstantinx - They are extremely heavy and difficult to move. You may want to try pushing it by reversing a car into it, or if pulling then do short tugs. Either way will take you ages to transport any significant distances.
WolfiePwnzU Feb 27 @ 2:00pm 
@OxTailSafu - if I recall the fill option interaction is only on one of the short sides, that looks like it has a small control panel/box (look at Pic 1 & 3 of 8)
OxTailSafu Feb 27 @ 12:46pm 
How exactly are you meant to put gas in the giant gas trailers? I've tried moving one of them next to a gas pump but I don't seem to have an option to fill it with gas, am I missing something?
xKonstantinx Feb 23 @ 1:56am 
which car is strong enough to tow them?
Zombie Feb 21 @ 9:24pm 
Is there any way to disable the crafting recipes and extra parts from Damnlib? I love the container mod but I really don't want all that extra stuff
DreamOfficiel Feb 5 @ 12:04am 
Did the towing still work ? I didn't finded how to tow it
Whiplash Jan 30 @ 6:44am 
@Joe Camel, this same shit happened to me and my friends except it was with 3 full fuel tanks
Joe Camel Jan 29 @ 9:14pm 
(B41 Multiplayer) My container has turned into a car for some reason? My items are still in there and it has the same carry weight. Not sure what to do. The mods list looks fine and there aren't any errors I can see.
Grunil Master Jan 29 @ 9:16am 
Thanks for updated this to B42.
Love your work, didn't find any bug atm !
VVentos Jan 29 @ 5:53am 
I made Turkish Traslation.
Kivlo Jan 28 @ 10:05pm 
I don't know if I did something wrong, I added this to my B42 preexisting save and it greyed out the texture of my vehicles.
Sgt. Rico Jan 28 @ 7:32pm 
The mod seems to have broke in my save (Build41), it turned the containers into cars today (after 3 months of playing). I looked at the mod list and it says damnlib is required and the containers mod is now disabled? How do I fix this?

Added support for B42 unstable again(If you find bugs, reports should be submitted in a B42 Bug report discussion of affected mods, many more mods are on the way but this initial public test with few selected mods will help debug things faster and balance the stats better before next round of updates.)

RV interiors not working on dedicated multiplayer server
tilarium Jan 24 @ 2:56pm 
No worries on that, I only checked them after not seeing it in the mods list in game.

@tilarium TY. My mistake. Reading is boring )):steammocking:
AbsynthMinded Jan 23 @ 6:59pm 
@KI5 If you have operating double doors for containers, could you please consider making 2 tile Double Doors for Wood and Metal Tile Sets
