🚗 Car Dealer — A Complete Vehicle Purchasing System
Introducing Car Dealer, a new NPC-powered vehicle vendor that allows players to purchase bicycles, motorcycles, and fully customized modular cars using scrap.
Simply interact with the NPC to open an intuitive purchase interface where players can browse available vehicles, configure modular cars, complete payments, and instantly receive their new ride.
Everything happens through a user-friendly in-game UI — no chat commands, no complicated setup, and no additional configuration required.
🏍 Available Vehicles
Bicycles & Motorcycles
Players can purchase the following vehicle types:
Motorcycle
Motorcycle with Sidecar
Bicycle
Tricycle
⛽ All vehicles are delivered fully fueled and ready to use immediately after purchase.
🚙 Modular Car Builder
Selecting the Car category opens the dedicated Car Editor, allowing players to build a fully customized modular vehicle tailored to their needs. Configure each chassis socket independently and create anything from a simple transport vehicle to a specialized utility car.
Available Modules
Cockpit Modules
Engine Compartments
Flatbeds
Storage Modules
Passenger Compartments
Fuel Tanks
Camper Modules
Taxi Modules (And more)
The editor fully respects Rust's vanilla modular vehicle rules, including:
Multi-socket module requirements
Incompatible module combinations
Mandatory engine and cockpit validation
Complete vanilla assembly restrictions
⚙️ Engine Quality Selection
Players can choose the quality tier of the engine components used in their vehicle:
Low Quality
Medium Quality
High Quality
Vehicle pricing is automatically adjusted based on the selected engine quality.
💰 Purchase Validation & Pricing
Before completing a purchase, players receive a detailed cost breakdown for all selected modules and components. The system automatically validates both the vehicle configuration and the player's available scrap.
🔴 If the build is invalid or the player lacks sufficient resources:
The purchase button is disabled
The total cost is highlighted
The purchase cannot proceed until all requirements are met
Once purchased, the vehicle spawns fully assembled, fully fueled, and ready for immediate use.
🔒 Vehicle Ownership & Protection
Every vehicle purchased through the Car Dealer is automatically linked to its owner. Before the vehicle is delivered, the buyer must create a personal 4-digit master code using an immersive in-game keypad interface. A code lock is automatically installed during vehicle creation.
First Owner Protection
Additional security measures remain active until the owner enters the vehicle for the first time:
Other players cannot mount the vehicle
Access to the engine compartment is restricted
Access to the fuel tank is restricted
As soon as the owner takes the driver's seat for the first time, these temporary protections are automatically removed and the vehicle behaves like a normal Rust vehicle.
⏱️ Automated Lift Management
All purchased vehicles are delivered on a modular car lift. To prevent delivery spots from becoming blocked, the system automatically manages lift occupancy and reservations.
Lift Reservation: After a purchase, the delivery lift is reserved exclusively for the buyer for 5 minutes. During this period, an on-screen countdown displays the remaining collection time. To complete the handover, the player simply needs to remove the vehicle from the lift.
Automatic Release: If the vehicle is not collected before the reservation expires, the delivery spot is automatically released and becomes available for the next customer.
