I'd like for sidecars to wait until veichles are made in parts.
Then you could make the sidecar detatchable.

Well, motorbikes are already in parts.

Hence my suggestion for how there could be broken down...

Yeah but it would be impossible to make them detatchable.

From another topic (http://www.cantr.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=110016):

Wooden cart

Can travel on any type of road.
Materials: 5000 wood
Tools: Hammer
Production time: 5 days
Speed: Walking speed, maybe somewhat less
Passengers: 1
Carryon weight: Very high (say, 50000 grams, or higher)

Obviously the numbers are open to tweaking. I made these up on the spot. I don't like the name, either.

Basically a startup vehicle for an individual or small group that wants to make a living out of trading bulky stuff, like limestone.

A folding bike, which can be carried around in your inventory and taken on board another vehicle.

I think it really ought to be possibleto take bikes on board ships and vans anyway, folding or not

In real life, yes. Probably be a bit of a challenge to implement in Cantr, though.

Bikes definitely should be able to go on boats, if ever my characters ever get anything of value, I would definitely not get onto a boat if I couldn't take it with me.

What about...armoured cars? Cars that would add to the protection of the driver so people can't attack him/her. And if it needs a con make it that the driver can't attack anyone until he/she gets out of the car.
