🚗 Vehicle Claiming System (New!)


We've added a new vehicle claiming system—a long-requested feature to improve fairness and reduce vehicle-related frustration on both PvE and PvP servers.

Key Details:




• This is a server setting and can be enabled or disabled by server owners.
  
• Players can now claim up to 2 vehicles on official servers. (trial period feedback welcome)
  
• In PvE, other players cannot access your claimed vehicle, unless they are in your clan.
  
• Claimed vehicles cannot be damaged by other players in PvE.
  
• All vehicle parts must be installed before a vehicle can be claimed.
  
• Once claimed, the built-in padlock system activates, allowing you to lock your vehicle.
  
• You can unclaim a vehicle at any time if you want to switch to another one.
  
• This system is designed to give players a fairer experience and cut down on vehicle hoarding or griefing. (See images below for a preview of how it works in-game.)
  


Claim your vehicle by adding all parts and clicking the CLAIM button


To unclaim a vehicle just click the UNCLAIM button but remember to take your parts out ;)
