ZikZ 5368 Mk.2 Scout

After many hours of playing around with the XML files and doing a lot of testing (many, many hours), I decided to release a Mk.2 version of my ZikZ 5368 Scout truck. It is still the same base truck but with just about everything tweaked, changed, or replaced. It is now a monster of the little truck that is fast, can go almost anywhere, and still can do some hauling. The goal was, and is, to make a very good medium/heavy scout truck with enough options to use as a rescue truck, explorer, or just run around the map. Being one of a very few "small" trucks, this was my choice to work on. It will not be everyone's cup of tea, but I like it when starting a new map or needing to do a truck retrieval.

If you do experience any issues, please post a message on mod.io. I will also entertain requests. I've been having so much fun with this truck that I may want to try another.

Changes to Base Truck:

- Level Locks on most advanced items but it is set so low, it should not be an issue. Everything should be unlocked by level 8. I don't think I left any exploration locks but it is easy to miss.

- Engines have been tweaked and added a set of modern US engines.

- ALL tires have been tweaked. The cost and performance of each tire should be normalized so great tires cost a lot, more standard tires cost a little. All tires will have a description that includes their specific perks: Offroad, Mud, or Asphalt

- Added 3 Addon Modules for the truck. They are all Maintenance/Service Modules with each having a different mix of fuel, tires, and repairs.

- Can tow both standard trailers and scout trailers. All trailers will work with all addons. Also has a Saddle-Low hitch but not that useful as this is a "medium" truck. The fuel in the addons does have an effect on balance. As you use fuel, the mass of the addon is reduced and the CG moves lower.

- Included a full set of Beast Tires. These tires are configured to be 1st in class and their cost will reflect this. If you want a challenge, use one of the more "generic" tires. They will test you.

- Included the Mega Tayga Mud Tires. They look cool and no swamp is safe from them.

- Changed the engine sounds and added a supercharger.

- Added a Custom Suspension for using the truck as a scout. Still has the normal and raised suspensions as options for when you want. All work well.

- New Custom Gearbox. The new gearbox has 6 forward, 3 low, and 1 high. It is tuned to the low side but will still let the truck move when in top gear.

- Added a Scout Winch. This is an Offline Winch with a long cable and high power. You will never get stuck with this one.

- Increased the base fuel capacity to 220L and tuned the gearbox and engines to keep fuel use down. There is a penalty for using AWD so you may want to not turn it on unless needed.

- Engageable Diff. Lock - Available for truck and I did not set it up for full-time use. I like the option of when to use it.

- The Mass of the truck has been reduced and lowered. (What would you expect for a custom scout truck?) This is the main reason this is not a great hauler but it IS as very good scout IMHO.
