Fin's Big Rigs 2.1.0

Please do not ask when mod authors will update their mods to 3.9.X
Bothering mod authors will lead to warnings and repeat offenses will lead to eventual bans.

Your rigs are too small. Fix that.

Makes your rigs bigger.















On the outside. This mod balances the absolutely ridiculous nature of EFT's rigs, and stops you from increasing the space in your backpack by shoving rigs inside. All rigs will take up at least as much area externally as they offer internally. There's a formula for this inside the mod, but the breakpoints are:


<10 capacity rigs become 3x3
<13 capacity rigs become 4x3

(In practice, the above two cases don't matter. All <12 capacity rigs are already more than big enough, and this mod doesn't shrink rigs.)

<17 capacity rigs become 4x4
<21 capacity rigs become 4x5

<26 capacity rigs become 5x5

<31 capacity rigs become 6x5

Note: Adding this mod will cause some inventory issues if a resized rig now has neighbours 'inside' its area.

    2.0.0 - (June 26, 2022)

    • Updated to work with AKI 3.0.x
    • Added a function that will re-sort your inventory in the event that expanding rig sizes hides certain items from view
      • This function isn't perfect, and may be disabled via the config
  • Version 1.0.0

  • Please tell me this is a reference to the classic over the road racing game lol

    • Maybe just a little bit.

  • For some reason the mod isn't loading on 3.1.1 for me. It isn't printing a message in the server either which is rather strange. I have tried using it with no other mods and have also tried clearing the cache, both through the launcher and by deleting the folder itself. Any ideas?

    • It isn't supposed to print out a message when the server loads, so that's normal. -To make sure it's working, though, you can open up mod.ts, and find this line:

      if (["5448e5284bdc2dcb718b4567"].includes(itemdb[id]._parent))

      {


      and add this directly beneath it:


      console.log(`Changing item ${database.locales.global.en.templates[id].ShortName}`)


      That should list all the items it's changing the size of. Note that you won't see that information appear in your console until you've started the game, slightly before you reach the main menu.

  • It looks like both Fins AI Tweaks and BigRigs almost have the same stuff inside the folder. BigRigs does not work, it looks like you got the wrong version uploaded.

    • It should work, it just has FAIT's config editor for some reason. As long as you don't try and use the config editor, it should be fine, but I'll upload a version with that removed!

      Thanks 1
  • I used it but after removing it some rigs are glitched when put into backpacks the picture expand over the space. Does anyone got this bug ?

    • That's odd. Have you tried clearing your cache via the launcher?

    • I didn't think about that and you were right it worked ! Thanks a lot !

  • Uhh, the readme is about "Fin's Realistically Equipped Traders". Will you update it later?

    It's not a game breaker for me, just ruin the modding immersion when I make a modpack for myself XD

    • Oops. I'll pull that out of there xD
