Upgrade Your Kerbal Rovers with Muscle Car Mod Parts

Are you looking to inject some style and power into your Kerbal Space Program rovers? The Mod Car Parts scene in KSP just got a whole lot cooler with the Muscle Car Parts Mod. This fantastic addition lets you build rovers that not only perform but also boast a distinct muscle car aesthetic. Imagine cruising across Kerbin in a vehicle that looks as good as it handles – that’s exactly what this mod delivers.

Unleash Your Inner Mechanic with Customizable Car Mods

This mod isn’t just about looks; it’s about deep customization and functionality. The Muscle Car Parts Mod provides a range of features designed to enhance your rover building experience:

  • Extensive Slider-Based Painting: Personalize your ride with up to four distinct color regions per part. Want a classic two-tone look or a racing stripe? The power to customize the paint job is in your hands, allowing for truly unique vehicle designs.
  • Functional Lights: Navigate the darker side of Kerbin or simply add a touch of realism with working headlights and taillights. These aren’t just cosmetic – they add a practical element to your nighttime explorations.
  • Interactive Doors, Hoods, and Trunks: Add a new layer of interaction to your rovers with optional opening doors, hoods, and trunks. Imagine showcasing your engine under the hood or loading up your trunk with science equipment.
  • Collidable Interiors: The interiors are fully collidable, meaning you can actually utilize the space inside your car. Load up the trunk, pack equipment under the hood, or even furnish the cabin interior for your Kerbals.
  • Muscle Car Handling: Experience a unique driving feel with drift handling that’s reminiscent of classic muscle cars. Take corners with style and enjoy a more dynamic driving experience on Kerbin.
  • Modular Construction: Build your dream machine piece by piece. The modular design of these car parts allows for creative and flexible construction, letting you tailor your rovers to specific tasks and terrains.
  • Reinforced Parts for Stunts: Built tough for adventurous drivers, the reinforced parts are designed to handle the stresses of stunting and off-road driving. Push your rovers to the limit and perform impressive maneuvers without worrying about structural integrity.

Getting Started with Your New Car Parts Mod

Integrating this car parts mod into your Kerbal Space Program is straightforward. Simply merge the “GameData” folder from the downloaded mod with your KSP root directory’s “GameData” folder. For a quick start, you can also merge the “Ships” folder to load a pre-assembled example rover and hit the ground running.

Important Notes for Optimal Performance:

  • Wheel Orientation: Due to game mechanics, wheel orientation is crucial. If you encounter issues with wheels clipping through the ground, ensure they are oriented correctly. A simple test: setting the ride height to 0 should raise the wheel upwards relative to the rover’s orientation.
  • Modular MultiWheels Plugin: This mod relies on TouhouTorpedo’s Modular MultiWheels plugin for wheel functionality. Make sure you have this plugin installed for the wheels to work correctly. If you prefer, standard electric wheels can be used as an alternative.
  • Part Category: Access the new car parts easily through a dedicated category located in the “extras” menu in the top left corner of the in-game editor.
  • Painting System: Customizing your car’s paint is intuitive. Each part features up to four paintable regions, adjustable via RGBA sliders in the right-click menu. Experiment with the sliders and region toggles to achieve your desired look.

Future Enhancements and Community Input

The creator is actively developing this mod car parts pack further, with plans for exciting additions like inline garages for transporting rovers on rockets, custom Kerbal seats, integrated probecore functionality, more vehicle body styles, and even engine customization options such as hood scoops and turbochargers. Community feedback is highly valued, so players are encouraged to share suggestions and report any issues in the dedicated KSP forum thread.
