U.S. M548 Cargo Carrier by Papa_Chad

This mod adds M548 Cargo Carrier with Animated Tracks, Doors and a fully functioning Turret to Project Zomboid. It is necessary to have the Military Tool Kit and U.S. M113 APC by Papa_Chad installed.

The M548 is a tracked cargo carrier. It is based on the M113 armored personnel carrier. Extremely powerful vehicle with its tracks is the ideal vehicle to smash hordes and with your Browning M2HB carnage is guaranteed.

• Animated Tracks
• Tracks Sound
• Animated Doors[b/]
  
• Animated Addons[b/]
  
• Turret
  The turrets have heavy coding that adds a completely new ballistics system that is independent of the systems in the Standard Game, performing calculations for each projectile independently, calculating its energy, ability to cause damage and transfix bodies, vehicles and walls.

• Carrying Capacity – High carrying capacity
• Browning M2HB – It uses the powerful 12.7 x99mm (.50 BMG) ammunition capable of annihilating anything in front of it. (Just like in real life, the projectile can transfix walls, vehicles and bodies).

• High consumption of gasoline – Because of its weight and tracks it will need much more gasoline than normal vehicles.
• Low speed – Slowly but with style.
• No Armor – Unlike the M113, the M548 is unarmored.
• Very noisy – Make a lot of noise that can attract a lot of attention wherever it goes.

In future updates, The tracks may break and will need to be repaired.

• The machine gun must be installed in the vehicle
• You must sit in the Gunner’s seat
• You must place the 12.7x99mm (.50 BMG) Ammo Box already loaded with 12.7x99mm (.50 BMG) Round in the gun compartment.
• Press the Right Mouse Button to aim and the Left Mouse Button to fire.
• ATTENTION, the projectile will be fired where the barrel of the machine gun is pointing and not necessarily where you are aiming, so for more precise shots it is recommended that you wait for the turret stop before firing. (It is still possible to fire with it moving)
• ATTENTION, when the projectile is fired, it will travel all the way until it completely loses its synergy and stops, so if there are vehicles in its path and the projectile has enough synergy, it will cause damage and may or may not transfix them. The same logic applies to walls, just as in real life a .50 BMG projectile can transfix some walls and still have the energy to destroy things in its path. So use with caution, a Browning M2HB is not a toy.

Today, there are only military variations, which can be found in traffic jams, military zones, police stations and farms.

• Military extra parts and own tools will be added to reapir them.
• More paint variations will be added.
• Tracks may break with use

• The barrel of the machine gun may not be visible some times.
• The machine gun, ammunition and ammunition box can be visible even if they are not installed in the vehicle.
• Armor does not protect against firearm attacks from mods that add NPCs.
• When loading a game the turret appears to be moved to the front of the vehicle.
• Damage textures appearing incorrectly (temporarily removed)
