Vehicle Additions — salvage the world's wrecks into drivable cars
Salvage jalopies from the wrecked cars scattered across the map and build them into drivable vehicles. They can be dyed and accept vehicle mods.
Details
Vanilla scatters a great many **decorative wrecked cars** across the world. This mod treats them as a resource and adds a path from wreck to working vehicle.
How you get one
Everything starts with a **jalopy** — the salvageable part from a wreck.
| | |
|---|---|
| Where | static wrecks along roads, in car parks, towns and petrol stations |
| How | **harvest** the wreck; a jalopy drops at a **low chance** |
| Tool | **a wrench or better**. A stone axe returns **scrap metal only, never a jalopy** |
| Level or perk | **none** — the tool is the only requirement |
The tool tier is the crux: hitting wrecks with a stone axe will never produce one. Not knowing that is where people get stuck.
With no level requirement, **you can start as soon as you own a wrench** — a separate route to transport compared with vanilla's 4x4 at level 70.
Details
Save compatibility is stated: **compatible with all Vehicle Additions v3.0+ saves**, so updates do not force a rebuild.
Updated for game version 3.x.
Installation
Extract into your `Mods` folder. It ships custom assets, so every player needs it. **Use a wrench or better to harvest wrecks for jalopies.**
