This might be a dumb question but... How do I get a driver and gunner into my vehicles? Selecting a pawn and right clicking on the tank does nothing, drafting them only gives the option to melee it.

There should be a button for select driver and gunner when you select the vehicle (must belong to your faction, won't work on other's even unmanned vehicle). Select gunner only avaible after you installed the weapon on the vehicle tho. Mod conflict might prevent these buttons from appearing, as far as I know the Zombieland mod did that.

Can you screenshot the issue? select the tank (Left click), then find the "select a driver", and "select a gunner" option.

Wait, Zombieland? sad. ill find out why its causing it.

This is a great mod, a shame it require one colonist to be outside during Caravan travel, since the vehicles itself are much more faster. It would drastically reduce the travel time.

[Aronia]

You know what wuld be cool? An integration with Giddy-up!Caravans. So that the person outside the vehicle (required to avoid the Everyone is downed error) could be loaded inside by assigning them to "mount" the car.

hi,

just got attacked by civil APC each with machine gun and machine cannon... ultra fast indeed, no to mention that ultra dmg 150 per shot and destroyed everything... all def that i ahd. only one APC so arent guns too OP now? i mean burst of 300 bullets every .30 of second is out of any control

I agree with that. I personally went in and nerfed the crap out of them in my files...

The burst cannon for example, I nerfed down to ~200 rounds per minute with a 6 shot burst, and gave it a small, weak explosion with a couple pieces of shrapnel (through combat extended, I believe I changed the ammo type to 25x137mmNATO and added the explosive properties of 25×40mm grenades to it, as it had none), the intent was to emulate the auto cannons used on most modern APCs like the Bradley and LAV-25, which use the 25x137mm M242 Autocannon.

Each individual shot still hits pretty hard if it hits directly, but it fires far fewer of them, and an indirect hit only does minor damage. Feels much more balanced now than when it was just vomiting bullets out at 3000RPM.

[Aronia]

Yup, machine guns are an insane overkill. They just destroy everything in sight. Taking on a psychic ship single-handedly? Why not, we have machine guns now! That's probably true for the other weapons in this mod, too, but I can only speak for what I've tried myself.
I also gave them to two of my pawns as weapons and found out that I couldn't unequip them. The "drop the weapon" command just does nothing, and if I try to equip a different gun, the pawn just picks it up and... and... the weapon disappears! The machine gun stays equipped.

Here's a screenshot of me having selected the tank.

How does this work exactly because I'm not seeing any options to load things into the vehicles.

Right click the vehicle with weapon installed. Make sure you got the ammo for the weapon.
