The user interface is counter-intuitive and the camera system used by the game is often considered to be user-hostile by new players. You will often spend insane amounts of time simply moving a few feet. The paper napkin pitch for the game is that you use a collection of aging soviet trucks to move logs from one place to another. Vehicles equipped with a lift axle are not able to lower the axle when suspension is completely destroyed as well.Spintires: Mudrunner is one of those quirky PC games that does not sound fun or worth spending time with on paper. When completely damaged suspension, will completely give out lowering the vehicles height. Suspension like most other components can be damaged by hitting obstacles, usually off-road. On some roads even driving at high speeds over seemingly minor uneven surfaces can damage the suspension.

Suspension - Suspension is much more easy to become damaged.When destroyed fuel tanks will rapidly drain fuel even when the engine is off. Like tires, fuel tanks will not have any negative affect on performance until they are destroyed. They can be damaged by reckless driving and collisions that hit the tank directly. Fuel tanks - Fuel tanks much like transmissions are typically hard to damage.Tires will not suffer from any negative effects until they are completely destroyed and can not be repaired unless destroyed. Almost all vehicles can be equipped with at least 1 spare tire. A destroyed tire will struggle to gain traction and cause the vehicle to handle extremely poorly on any road. Tires - Tires can be damaged from the tire hitting obstacles at high rates of speed like rocks or barriers.When completely broken gearboxes will refuse to shift into any gear essentially becoming stuck in neutral. When damaged gearboxes will also increase fuel consumption. When damaged a gearbox will often shift from the desired gear into neutral. Gearboxes can also be damaged if they are hit by obstacles much like engines. Gearbox - Gearboxes primary source of damage is from driving on smooth surfaces with the differential lock engaged.Engines can be damaged from collisions, driving in deep water, or if the engine is hit on obstacles like rocks. Engines when heavily damaged can randomly stall when driving. Damaged engines have less power and use more fuel. Engine - Engine damage performs relatively the same as in previous games.Each damage type will affect the vehicles performance in its own way.

The 5 new damage types are Engine, Gearbox, Tire, Fuel tanks, and Suspension. There are now 5 different components that can be damaged on each vehicle, each component also has its own health pool as well. Oil and other fluids can also be seen leaking from them.ĭamage in SnowRunner is greatly expanded. Damaged vehicles will shoot sparks from the exhaust and will rapidly backfire when accelerating. Trucks will also become visibly damaged and audibly damaged as well. Vehicles can be repaired by taking them to a garage, recovering them, or repairing them with any add-on or trailer with repair points. In Spintires, and Mudrunner, trucks will stall when damaged. As a vehicle becomes more damaged they will suffer negative affects like loss of power, increased fuel consumption, and poor steering. Primarily from collisions and careless driving. Vehicle damage can be caused by a wide number of things. Vehicle damage is a gameplay mechanic in Spintires, Mudrunner, and Snowrunner.
