Test Drive v1.0






Test Drive v1.0
This mod lets you test drive a vehicle free of charge for a very limited length of time. This is useful if you want to check the size or weight of a particular vehicle (for example, to see if it will be compatible with your implements) prior to purchasing.
By default, the test drive is free of charge for vehicles below $100,000, and lasts 2 minutes in real-time. If the vehicle is over $100,000, then the dealer will charge an insurance fee of 0.3% the value of the vehicle. Only drivable vehicles can be test driven.
This mod creates a “testDriveSettings.xml” file in the modSettings directory which can be used to configure:
– duration: the real-time length of the test drive, in minutes (default=2)
– insuranceThreshold: the price threshold for charging insurance (default=100000)
– insuranceRatio: the cost for insurance (when required) as a percent of total vehicle cost (default=0.003)
– onlyDrivables: if false, all vehicles can be test driven (default=true)
NOTE: This mod in not compatible with other mods which use the “MENU_EXTRA_2” key on the shop screen (by default the ‘C’ key).
