Evacuation transports, cargo trucks, and ConVecs all use the same tractor unit. You should be able to make evac transports, cargo trucks, and ConVecs sans the tractor units, and be able to reuse existing tractor units.

That's what we are doing with the meshes. :D thanks for the suggestion though.

Or, are you meaning, build the tractor seperately and have a trailer that can be attached? I don't really like that idea. From what I can tell, the tractor is held onto whatever it is pulling with a large bolt type mechanism.

the 'tractor' or cab of the vehicles has only two wheels. it cant support itself unless it is connected to a vehicle module.
