Push Cars by Hand (SP-Only)

Description
Allows pushing cars around by hand, right click on a car and choose which side to push it from.

-- ONLY WORKS IN SINGLE PLAYER CURRENTLY --

-- Usage --

Right click on car and choose Push Vehicle from the menu then choose where to push it from.
Pushing from the front or rear grants a small bonus to pushing force and lowers fatigue penalties.

- Notes --

- Pushing a car gives a very small amount of Strength/Fitness XP.
- Pushing cars will burn calories.
- How much fatigue/endurance pushing a car costs is down to your fitness.
- You get a small bonus to shove distance based on your strength.
- There are minimum strength requirements that vary slightly based on the vehicle weight.
It's essentially at least 3 strength to consider pushing then +1 str requirement per roughly 800kg of vehicle.
The baseline five strength can shove basically any vanilla car around and only really scrawny characters will have issues.

-- Known Issues --

- Sometimes when doing multiple pushes in a row, the character will get stuck in path-finding. Reposition yourself and try again.
- Occasionally the sub-menus on Push From Left or Push From Right get stuck on screen, they can dismissed with a click.
- The push force is sometimes a little unstable between pushes, I suspect it's the bullet physics lib being strange.

-- Additional Credits --
Thanks to Aiteron's Better Towing Mod for some borrowed math on force vectors, all other code original

@langford i'm in a similar situation too.. xD I hit another car and that car ended up leaning onto my car. Can't back off and can't drive foward :(

Could really use this on B42 right now, I'm in the middle of nowhere and managed to flip my car onto its side :( I know I know I shouldn't be allowed to drive

Hopefully this mod will be updated for Build 42, it is one of my favorite mods. Please, when possible, I would love you to update it :)

why no multiplayer?

That stamina burn makes this mod completely useless for me. Only 4 or 5 pushes went from completely full stamina to completely empty with a 7 in fitness.
