Usage in base

Mandatory properties

This prototype inherits all the properties from Prototype/Vehicle.

animation

Type: RotatedAnimation
Animation speed 1 means 1 frame per tile.

effectivity

Type: double
Modifies the efficiency of energy transfer from burner output to wheels.

consumption

Type: Energy

rotation_speed

Type: double

burner or energy_source

Type: EnergySource
Must be a burner energy source when using "burner", otherwise it can also be a void energy source.

inventory_size

Type: ItemStackIndex
Size of the car inventory.

Optional properties

turret_animation

Type: RotatedAnimation
Animation speed 1 means 1 frame per tile.

light_animation

Type: RotatedAnimation
Must have the same frame count as animation.

render_layer

Type: RenderLayer
Default: "object"

tank_driving

Type: bool
Default: false
If this car prototype uses tank controls to drive.

has_belt_immunity

Type: bool
Default: false
If this car is immune to movement by belts.

immune_to_tree_impacts

Type: bool
Default: false
If this car gets damaged by driving over/against Prototype/Trees.

immune_to_rock_impacts

Type: bool
Default: false
If this car gets damaged by driving over/against rocks.

immune_to_cliff_impacts

Type: bool
Default: true
If this car gets damaged by driving against Prototype/Cliffs.
