Vertibird Transport Add-On

Description
Re-usable troop transport, straight from the US of A !

Requires the Brotherhood Compendium to be loaded first in order to work properly !
For the standalone version, click here : https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1893953698


V2.0 update :
- on request, introduced the historic XVB-02 with Enclave paintjob, lesser operational range but greater payload !


Hello there, good fellas of the rim !



This mod works as an add-on for the Brotherhood Compendium, and allows constructions of the XVB-02 Vertibird and the XVH-01 Vertihawk (see ingame description for more details and pseudo lore) !

Basically, a 100% standalone reskin of AKreedz Cargo Pod Transport, similar to SRTS mod.

Tested on a 10hours + game, no bugs or errors. Runs smoothly. A must-have for any Fallout aficionado ;)


Gameplay :
- Construction : after proper research, needs plastel, steel, a sh*tload of components and an AI Subpersona Core. This mod is voluntarily aimed at endgame, and the cost simply reflects the huge strategic advantage it provides.
- May seriously detonate if damaged
- Can be minified for practical use, even if one could consider it unrealistic
- Transported pawn will eat, sleep and heal during the trip (won't take ages though)
- Cargo capacity : 1200 (Vertibird) and 800 (Vertihawk)
- Maximum range at full tank : 65 hex (VB) / 130 hex (VH)
- Too scared of flying ? Have some fun with the dedicated model kits and start a glorious exhibition


Usual warning with this kind of mod :
• You need a pilot in the caravan, otherwise the aircraft will crash on landing (aka common sense)
• The gift option will actually give EVERYTHING to the faction (aircraft + cargo)
• Avoid map edges on landing, as the aircraft may disappear
• On landing, the aircraft position will reset to north. Can't do anything about this :(
