FS25 REA wheels v1.0.7

The goal of this mod is to make the game feel more realistic and customizing the vehicle for the task more rewarding.

Realistic tire force
Deeper tracks
Sink Boost
Helper tracks activated

The goal is to make the mod universal.
This mod supports multiplayer and dedicated servers.
No changes in XML is needed. Some data from XML is overwritten!

In the base game many vehicles does not take tiretype into consideration making for example
the Manitou MC18 Forklift recive the same tire friction as a tractor.
This mod fill the missing data based on tiretrack index making it universal.
Different tiretypes now act completely different on different ground types and
suffers differently on rain and sinking into the ground.

This mod supports the 4 standard tiretypes: MUD, STREET, OFFROAD and CRAWLERS!
Calculates friction based on size of tire making wide tires, duals and tracks worth the money for
heavy fieldwork but the narrows suffers making it ideal for easier tasks in later growth state.
Tire friction is calculated using width and radius.
Track friction is calculated using width and track lenght.

Adds rolling and sideway resistance meening:
– More wheel load, small tires and soft ground = more force needed for pulling or pushing.
– Less wheel load, large tires and hard ground = less force needed for pulling or pushing.
– Front axel is no longer by default locked when a frontloader is attached.
– Deformation of tires is increased.

This mod for FS25 aims to enhance the gameplay experience by adding realistic tire forces, deeper tracks, sink boost, and activated helper tracks. The primary goal is to make vehicle customization more rewarding and to provide a universal mod that supports multiplayer and dedicated servers without requiring changes in the game's XML files.

By taking tire types into consideration based on tire track index, this mod addresses the issue of vehicles in the base game not differentiating between tire types, leading to unrealistic behavior such as the Manitou MC18 Forklift having the same tire friction as a tractor. With support for the standard tire types (MUD, STREET, OFFROAD, and CRAWLERS), tires now behave differently on various ground types, affected by factors like rain and sinking into the ground.

The mod calculates tire friction based on tire size, making wide tires, duals, and tracks more effective for heavy fieldwork, while narrower tires are better suited for lighter tasks. Rolling and sideways resistance have been added, meaning that factors like wheel load, tire size, and ground hardness affect the force required for pulling or pushing. The mod also removes the default front axle lock when a front loader is attached, and increases tire deformation for a more realistic experience.
