Add weight to a vehicle?

[AlexanderJohn]

is it possible to add weight to a vehicle for example a lot of the cars and the new type a Chevy express Minno tour is easy to flip over and it goes through gears so quick and I want to make it so a single tap on the arrow key doesn’t make the bus go flying. Does anyone have any suggestions or help? Thanks.

go into the truck file and search for minimass, then set it to a higher number

You can also decrease friction with set_node_defaults before the wheels section

For example, this is what my car's wheel section looks like (don't copy this, it can and WILL break the mod)

loadweight, friction (here, it's 150% friction)
set_node_defaults 0.0, 1.5
