The Transporter
A steam wagon that follows you, hauls cargo, and keeps a driver in the seat. It climbs with the ground, burns coal or wood from its own boiler, and lights the road when you want it to.
Features
- Follows you or stays parked. Front wheels steer, and the wheels roll with the wagon's speed.
- 32-slot cargo hold.
- Separate boiler. Coal, wood, and surtling cores feed it. Smoke on the stack thickens while it is moving.
- Amber headlights and a tail lamp. Auto while the boiler has fuel, or force them off or always on.
- Seated driver with head tracking and courier lines.
- Live tuning page at
http://127.0.0.1:8791/.
Controls
- E — open the cargo hold.
- Shift+E — open the boiler.
- V — follow or stay. Works while you are near the wagon.
- Alt+L — cycle the lamps: Auto, Off, Always on.
- Use coal, wood, or a surtling core on the wagon to stow one piece in the boiler.
Build it from the Hammer, in the DFG category. The default cost is 20 Fine Wood, 10 Bronze Nails, 4 Deer Hide, and 1 Surtling Core.
