Vehicle Parts

Can you make all vehicle parts in a building and then drag them outside to build the final vehicle? For instance: a motorcycle has wheels, engine and a frame. Can those be built inside and then carried outside by someone? Or does it plop to the ground as a fixed item like a loom or cot? There's no one "old" around me to ask where this particular character is. And I think this is something a Cantr person would automatically know, especially if they were building the item.

I think they're items that can be carried, like the 'semi-finished' bits of weapons.
I might be wrong though?...
But, yes, with something like a vehicle, it would be unfair to say you should make them to find out...

Thanks! I know I can carry a tire but haven't tried an engine or frame. And the engine was what I was most worried about. I wouldn't be able to carry one in real life without pulling a few muscles.

Wait!
Don't take my word! I've never built anything with an engine in it... I just remember seeing one get carried about - best wait for some kinda authority on the matter

I can answer this. Vehicle parts end up in your inventory, assuming you have enough room to carry them.
When the remainder of the vehicles are split into parts, I will make an announcement for all to know how to create vehicles. Having you all experiment would just ask for trouble

But it's mostly the same as it is now, for the motorcycles. You can create them indoors, or outdoors, and carry them around as an object.

Anthony i frown upon that
The fun of cantr is finding it out yourselves.

At least a frame can be carried because one was taken from a spawn and run thief. Even if they can be carried, couldn't they weight a bit more?

If it was a spawn and run thief he was probably not carrying much else.

That would obviously be a bike frame.
Try carrying the frame to a bus. Really. I'd like to see you try.
