SnowRunner - Actual Weight for Trailers V2.1

SnowRunner Mods

This mod do not modify any truck or addon. Just trailers
Do you ever ask why your little K1500 can haul a oil tank trailer like is nothing?

Well turns out that every trailer (except the scout ones) are very light. so i add a bunch of weight to every trailer.
Now if you are going too fast and then you stop or turn without slowing down, the trailer will drag you out and posibbly tip the truck or worse.
You will need a super heavy truck to move super heavy cargo with ease, or even to be able to move it.

VERSION 2.0
This is the final version of this mod, unless it need some fix after the patch

Superheavys trailers (oil rig, heavy oil semi, heavy construction semi)
Oil Rig: down to 32.000 kg and improved the center of mass, was 43.000 kg
Heavy oil tank semi: down to 28.000 kg the fuel also goes down to match the weight and improved center of mass, was 40.000 kg
heavy contruction semi: down to 26.000 kg and imprived the center of mass, was 36.000 kg
Coiled turbine semi: down to 28.000 kg and improved the center of mass, was 36.000 kg
All trailers with 4 or 5 slot cargo down to 7.100 kg, was 9.100 kg
All trailers with 2 slot cargo down to 5.500 kg, was 7.100 kg

Added and optional file with stronger cranes.
Big cranes have 12.000 kg of counterweight, was 5.800
Big cranes have aprox. in beween 3 and 4 times more force.
Anchors have 6 times more force to suport the weight of the crane when anchored (smaller trucks will lift up a couple of cm above the road in certain flat terrains)
Small cranes weight unchanged
Small cranes have between 2 and 3 times more force

Thanks to everyone who downloaded the mod. i hope you enjoyed it.

Version 1.1
Fixes to the oil rig semi trailer:
-added wheels on the center (if your trailer leg bugs out, they will help supporting the falling trailer, and give you a chance to correct it with a heavy crane)
-added more force to the legs (now they will be able to lift the trailer)
Added more force to the cranes (all of them) 3 times more aprox (credist to ryankary12 for the big crane force values)
Added more weight to the big cranes from 2.000 kg to 10.000 kg, now the trucks shouldn’t move as much when moving trailers

Installation and backup guide:
Make sure, you have WinRAR installed! No installation with subscribing as with all mods around here, that change base game files.

Manual installation:
Download the file
Navigate to the path you have SnowRunner installed to
Follow the folders: SnowRunner\en_us\preload\paks\client
Create a folder called ‘Backup’ to save your original file.
Copy the file ‘initial.pak’ into that Backup folder. Now you are ready to install the mod!
Open the original file ‘initial.pak’ with WinRAR.
Open the mod-file ‘(mod file)’ with WinRAR, as well.
Now drag and drop the [media]-folder from the mod-zip-file into ‘initial.pak’.
The files in ‘initial.pak’ will be overwritten.
Close everything and you can start playing.
If you don’t like it and want to revert: Navigate back to your installation folder and delete the edited ‘initial.pak’. Then copy the original file from your ‘Backup’-folder, and everything is vanilla again.

(Instructions copied from Fuel capacities based on real data mod page)

Since the weights are up i recommend the MOAR POWAAAAAAA mod, and the Fuel capacities based on real data mod (you are going to need the extra fuel).
This three mods combined add a little more complexity to the haul business and also ease some mechanics that are not really fun (not for me at least) like the constant need to check the fuel.
