Hey, I just had a look at your mod regarding the MP issue. You have a node named "SYNC" parented under the vehicle's root node. I think you need to delete this node since the scripts on it should be (and already are) are the root node. Can you give this a try and report back?

P.S. The audio sources under the node "Sounds" should be parented under the node "Driving" or even better "Components/Body".

Hatschupp, thank you so much for your help!

Can you provide clarification on PHOTONVIEW and SYNCVEHICLE? Are these required? When I add them to the root node, they seem to be removed automatically during upload/publishing.

Within the crane tutorial series, the author mentions that within new version, these are no longer needed. I remain unclear as to whether these are needed and how to properly configure them.

If I remember correctly, they are automatically added when a mod gets exported (and previous instances of those scripts get removed beforehand). In your mod's case, the excavator had these scrips on the root node AND on the sync-node during runtime.

Thank you. I will update and test this later today.

I removed my SYNC node and ensured there were no instances of PHOTONVIEW or SYNCVEHICLE. I exported to DIR: MODVEHICLES. I bought the MOD within single player, then started a multiplayer game and the MOD disappeard from my motor pool.

I tried this a second time. This time, I added PHOTONVIEW and SYNCVEHICLE to the root myself. The results were the same. Looking back at UNITY, I can see that PHOTONVIEW and SYNCVEHICLE were automatically removed during the export process.

So what does that mean for a normal player like me, or do I have to understand some of it? Or is that only relevant for the developers, what you have written here.

This thread is relevant to the developers.

Did you guys get around this eventually, so that this machine can be used in MP?

I'm hoping for this too. Also, I hope _Jacob can find time to fix this small issue: Change "earth unload" graphical textures.
_Jacob, you are on the dev team now? For which game?

No matter what I do, this excavator never shows up in available equipment. Does anyone else have this problem?

hi, can you explain how to import an excavator model into the unity program.

there is an idea to make a larger excavator based on it. I myself do not understand how to import the model since there is no video tutorial anywhere.
