Drivers and passengers sit in the car where you can see them, with their hands on a steering wheel that turns. Chassis adds a first person view, a horn, indicators, locks and owners, and a base interior for the vanilla cars. Other mods build their vehicles on it.

Features

• Players and NPCs in a vehicle sit visibly in their seats, police included. The driver holds

the steering wheel with both hands, and the wheel turns when you steer.

• Press V in a vehicle for a first person view from your seat. Your body stays visible below you.

The next seat starts in the view you last used.

• Press G for the horn. H stays the headlights.
• The key hints at the bottom left show the vehicle's keys. While you push a vehicle they show

Push and Let Go.

• The left and right arrow keys switch the indicators on vehicles that have indicator lamps.

After the turn they switch off on their own.

• Each player-owned vehicle has an owner, and the owner can lock it. A locked vehicle lets in

only its owner. Others can ride along while the owner sits inside. Other mods set the lock through the API. Vehicles from older saves belong to the host.

• The vanilla cars get a base interior: seats, a dashboard, a steering wheel and tinted glass,

so you can see who sits inside.

• Every vanilla car gets a live rear-view mirror and two side mirrors. The Mirrors row in the

graphics settings picks Off, Rear Only, Rear + Side (default) or + Nearby Cars, which also renders the mirrors of up to three cars within 15 m. Reflections sets how sharp they are.

• The speedometer and the rev counter move. In first person, look at a switch and left-click it:

light switch, hazard lights, indicator stalk and the horn in the wheel centre.

• The cabin light fades on when someone gets in or out and while the car stands, and off when

you drive. Click the dome lamp to switch between Auto, On and Off.

• Click the lid right of the centre console to open the glovebox, from the driver or the

passenger seat. It holds 2 to 4 items, by car size, and is saved with the car.

• The vanilla cars flash their own amber indicator lamps outside. A rear without one flashes part

of the brake light in red.

• Guns hit NPCs that sit in a car. A driver who goes down falls out, and the car stops.
• Riding and pushing the wheelchairs moved to its own mod, Rollin. Without Rollin the wheelchairs

stay vanilla props.

• In co-op, seats, horn, indicators, locks, owners, the cabin light and the glovebox sync through

the host.

Requirements

• Schedule I 0.4.7f12 (IL2CPP) with MelonLoader 0.7.3+.
• Every player in a co-op session needs Chassis.

Settings

BaseInterior (default true) in category Chassis of UserData/MelonPreferences.cfg. It turns the base interior and the visible NPC drivers of the vanilla cars on or off.

SpeedUnit (default kmh) sets kmh or mph for the speedometer and the odometer.

Mirrors (default 2) picks which mirrors render: 0 Off, 1 Rear Only, 2 Rear + Side, 3 + Nearby Cars. Reflections (default 1, 0 Low to 3 Ultra) sets how sharp chrome and the mirrors reflect. Both are also in the game's graphics settings.

GloveboxOwnStorage (default true) gives the glovebox its own slots, saved in Chassis.glovebox. false makes the lid open the vanilla trunk, and saves stay vanilla.

StartInFirstPerson (default false) starts every seat in first person. Without it, a seat starts in the view you had when you last got out.

For mod authors

Chassis has a public C# API in Chassis.Api (ChassisApi). With it you give a vehicle seat profiles, a steering wheel, lids, lamps and a horn sound, sound the horn, set indicators, and read or set owner and lock, and add your own keys to the key hints. Mods can also build their own interior with working gauges and clickable switches, and read
