WHI - Flatback

Workhorse Industries introduces the FBK-Flatback mining transport. A large-grid compact truck specifically designed to fit through standard hangar doors for indoors parking. The size limit does take away certain things such as defensive turrets and other auxiliary equipment. It does however carry no less than 40 Small Cargo Containers for a total of 625,000 Liter capacity. A bit less than the 843,750 Liters of the previous MTCL but the compact design might make up for it depending on your needs.

It has one connector in the front and one on the right mounted downwards to give some options for docking with a base. A pair of reverse cams will assist with navigating and the rear wheel steering can be toggled on or off.

Drivers are adviced to use extra caution when operating the vehicle with a low suspension setting as damage to the undercarriage becomes a high risk. As an extra caution a sensor will automatically engage the handbrake if it detects your ride being set too high to clear through an opening.

The M6 class mining craft is recommended to be used with the Flatback. ( https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2966197693 )

Edit: Fixed missing/wrong groups in the Timer Block that should be triggered when docking.
