About this mod

Unlocks rover trailer joint and improving rover steering and meneuvarability

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Changelogs
The vanilla game has a weird locking mechanism on the rover trailer joint. 
It is applying narrow limits to the joint and the rovers steering axis resulting in wide turning radius of the rover and extremely awkward steering. Especially when driving backwards the lock does not allow the trailer to turn more then a few degree and therefore pushing the trailer with locked join. 

This little mod disables this locking mechanism making the rover much more maneuverable and much better steerable especially when driving backwards.

Notes
  • The joint maximum angles are still hard limited by the model, the mod only removes additional locking mechanism on top of that. There should be no clipping.
  • Will work with existing saves, starting a new game is not required
  • Mod was made with game version 0.154.4 but it should stay compatible with newer versions of the game.
  • Should not conflict with any other mods
