Vehicle Explorer 1.0.1.0
Vehicle Explorer 1.0.1.0
This is an update of VehicleExplorer from FS22 to FS25. This update has not been thoroughly tested yet.
For beginners: VehicleExplorer helps you organize your vehicles, by showing you a list which can be organized, well, sorted by you. Besides that it has a couple of additional functionality. Not ported/fixed yet
Tabbing will still take you to the train when not shown in the list.
Sometimes, the tab gets stuck on a new vehicle and needs to be re-ordered to fix it.
Porting Tardis to FS25 and integrating with it?
Features
List of all steerable vehicles (Specialization: Enterable)
Set a customer order for your vehicles
Your order is saved in the default vehicles.xml, so no additional clutter
Enter your vehicles directly with a click of a (mouse) button
This is meant literally, see known issues.
EasyTab: Switch between the last two selected vehicles
Park your vehicles, so that a switch of vehicles via Tab ignores them
Repair vehicles and its implements
Let your vehicle and implements get cleaned on a repair from your friendly VeEx staff.
If Seasons is enabled, you can also let the vehicle and implements get repainted
Displaying a store image next to the list
Info box with additional informations
Motor on/off, turned on/off (for e.g. harvester) and light status is saved and restored
Different colors in the list if a vehicle is selected, or currently used by a helper/Courseplay
Config Menu
Config is saved per savegame within modsSettings/VehicleExplorer/savegameX

Tardis integration
With Tardis you can teleport yourself AND your vehicles to any position on the map
With VehicleExplorer & Tardis you can select a vehicle on the list, and teleport that to any location without entering it. You can also configure if you want to enter the vehicle after teleportation or just drop the vehicle to another location
With Tardis Map Hotspots you can again, select a vehicle and quickly teleport that to one of those hotspots.
Known issues
Although you can change all the keyboard bindings, the mouse actions are hardcoded for now
Left mouse click: Enter vehicle
Right mouse click: Select vehicle (to e.g. move it)
Right mouse click: Change value in the config menu
Mouse wheel: Selection up/down in list
Max of three columns. If you’ve more vehicles (which would be insane anyway) , just disable the display of brand name etc
