RaG Immersive Vehicles

RaG Immersive Vehicles adds mechanical consequences and cabin features to DayZ vehicles: working engine oil, wheel wear, jacks and secured wheels, wet-surface sliding, collision damage, heating, interior lights, high beams, and exposed-occupant AI targeting.

RaG Core is a hard dependency. Install and enable both mods on the server and every client. Declared addon dependencies control PBO ordering.

Source-backed feature summary

• CE-spawned vehicles start with a random 0-35% of fuel capacity and 0-35% of oil capacity.
• Low oil produces a dashboard warning, smoke, and engine damage while driving.
• Wheels wear every two seconds while the engine is running above 7 km/h; off-road and road rates are configurable.
• Unlocked wheels can detach from a moving vehicle unless its class is in WheelException.
• The hydraulic car jack or farm jack can be required before wheel removal.
• Non-off-road vehicles can receive random traction impulses on wet, diggable surfaces.
• Vehicle impacts with infected and animals can damage the contacted vehicle zone; classes in AnimalCollisionDamageExceptions are ignored.
• A badly damaged engine on a moving, non-exempt vehicle can stall during the 100-second maintenance update.
• Drivers and front passengers can control heating; open doors, ruined windows, and exposed trunks/hatches prevent heat comfort.
• Powered interior lights follow open attached doors.
• The driver can switch between 30-meter low beams and 60-meter high beams.
• Drivers exiting while the vehicle is not in neutral stop the engine.

Legacy claims about an 8-energy start cost, reduced alternator charging, a 25°C heat cap, or repeated start attempts from damaged vital attachments are not present in the analyzed source and are intentionally omitted.
