Realistic Fuel Management for Chaos Vehicles

The Advanced Fuel System: Multiplayer Vehicle Addon brings realistic fuel management to any Chaos Vehicle within Unreal Engine. This system integrates seamlessly with existing vehicle packs, allowing developers to add depth to their driving mechanics. Furthermore, it is designed to work with both Basic and Advanced vehicle setups without complex configuration.

Setting up the system is highly efficient. Developers only need to add a single component to their base chaos vehicle blueprint. Consequently, you can immediately begin customizing fuel properties such as maximum capacity, reserve levels, and initial fuel amounts.

Multiplayer Support and Compatibility

The Advanced Fuel System: Multiplayer Vehicle Addon is fully replicated for multiplayer environments. It supports both LAN and Internet connections, making it a robust choice for competitive or cooperative games. Additionally, it works reliably on both Listen and Dedicated Servers.

Compatibility is a core focus of this package. It is fully compatible with Digital Dive Vehicles, including more than 20 vehicles ranging from base models to police versions. Moreover, it supports both drivable cars and ridable bikes from various advanced packs.

Advanced Interaction Systems

The developer has included two distinct interaction systems to suit different gameplay styles. The Advanced system is based on the UE5 Third Person character template. It features IK-based grab, drop, and interact animations for handling fuel hoses and jerry cans. These animations are managed through linked anim graphs for easy integration with your own characters.

Alternatively, the Basic system offers a more arcade-like experience. Players can simply park their vehicle over a refuel point for a gradual refill. Furthermore, they can run over a refuel pickup for an instant tank replenishment.

Technical Features and UI

The Advanced Fuel System: Multiplayer Vehicle Addon includes detailed fuel consumption logic. Consumption can be calculated based on RPM through a customizable curve float. This ensures that high-performance driving impacts fuel levels realistically. Key technical features include:

Fuel Status Widget showing tank percentage and autonomy.
Support for both Metric (liters/100 km) and Imperial (MPG) units.
Gas Station Manager blueprint to automatically set up all pumps in a scene.
Interactable objects including fuel hoses and jerry cans with percentage widgets.

The package contains 64 Blueprints and requires the Chaos Vehicles Plugin. It supports Windows development and provides input compatibility for Gamepad, Keyboard, and Mouse.

Comprehensive Environment Assets

To help developers get started quickly, the package includes two example gas stations. These examples demonstrate both the basic and advanced interaction systems in a live environment. The fuel pumps even include widgets showing the volume of fuel poured and the total calculated price.

In conclusion, this addon provides a complete solution for developers looking to add mechanical depth to their vehicles. By combining realistic consumption logic with high-quality animations and multiplayer replication, it serves as a professional-grade resource for any Unreal Engine project.
