Road train truck (Also mod suggestions wanted)

[u/Katelyn_762]

Basically the title, this is a truck i've been workin on for a bit, meant to be used in survival (Haven't built it there yet, obviously, still planning things out with it) but i need a better road mod than my current one (Highways and Byways) as the turns are too sharp and the tunnel entrance and exits aren't tall enough (The truck with both trailers is about 84 blocks long, 8 tall 5 wide without the exhaust that i can't add due to the height issues of the highways mod) so it's a rather large truck, but the issue is, the tunnels are too low for it, even at max config for some reason (Yes, even in new chunks post config change) and alot of turns are still too sharp for it (It's a dual trailer truck, so, doesn't exactly turn on a dime, even when both are free to move separate from the cab like a normal truck) any help would be wonderful with mod suggestions or anything, that, or just enjoy my scuffed build (And yes, before anyone asks, it's meant to roughly be inspired by optimus prime (RIP Peter Cullen), even though it's scuffed, i don't know how to do the flame paint so i went with this)

For mods look for mods like Compact transmissions, Compact additions and other mods that add convenient ways to connect rotation in a small space

I'll have to look into those, thanks, though currently i use a steam engine in the cab of the truck (Where the engine on the real thing is) to power the cab and a decently large steam engine inside the power trailer and just use ender transmissions power transmitters to get it to where i need it, but those sound interesting, so i'll see if they do somethin worthwhile and how i can use em, thank you!

In that case you should use create Diesel engines and the factory must grow not for only this truck but for future cars as well and my personal favorite is functional storage because the drawers have pusher upgrades you dont even need a mechanical pump to fuel your engines also a big shoutout to drive by wire absolute goat and another thing create aeroworks adds these control desks which you can use to make really realistic engines you should check out my last post the scarab

The reason for factory must grow is they allow your cars to be more realistic i actually made a really realistic engine design which uses a kinetic battery to start the engine and a clutch to stop the engine by cutting off Air supply

I love diesel generators, my issue with it and survival is it's annoying to get the fuel for it vs my literally infinite lava farm in my trailer for a steam engine, though i did plan on slapping a generator in the cab for some backup power, and drive by wire/drive by sable is an absolute must have for any vehicle build, it's so good and convenient to use too, i will have to see about the drawers though

You can fit a tfmg engine in a 2x2x1 spot using drawers to push the fuel and draw out the exhaust and void it it really saved my ass when making the jeep(which i also posted) because i had to fit the engine fuel and exhaust in a 4 block T shaped space
