[Solved]Passenger seat not working in modded tractor

[asundrus]

So I picked the Vario 1000 to play around with, changed colors and wheels, all worked just fine, except, the passenger seat is not working, it works just fine with the non modded from the store, what causes this?

[Dogface]

any errors or warnings in the log file?

I'm not sure what to look for, but in the log, the only errors I see is from a mod I really don't use:

*EDIT* Besides the Kubota DLC, I'm using the Kubota Pack Passenger Extension mod.

I've now tried with 6 different tractors made using GE, all of them are missing the passenger seat feature, nothing have been done to those 6 mods besides creating in GE, saving, adding to my mod folder, and no errors in the log.

Are you using a passenger mod?

[asundrus]

I have tried with and without Kubota Pack Paasenger Extension mod, same results, not working with modded tractors.

Have you looked at another modded tractor which works to compare how that is setup compared to what you have done?

[Dogface]

Did you add a passenger seat to your mod?

[asundrus]

I thought, that when making a mod from Giants Editor of a base game vehicle, that works with passenger seat, I could then use the mod as is, without having to add any codes, I guess I was wrong. And yes, I just found a Vario 1000 mod that has a working passenger seat, and eventhough I'm very new to this kind of modding, I looked in the vehicle xml and found a passenger code, I could then copy paste, but then I looked in the .i3d file from the mod I just mentioned, it also has passenger code, so I guess that means, I would have to use Giants Editor to make TransformGroups, or could I copy paste that as well?

And I'm so sorry of all this sounds like giberish, but again, I'm a noob at modding, but I'm really greatful for your replies, and hope with your help I can get this done.

... so I guess that means, I would have to use Giants Editor to make TransformGroups, or could I copy paste that as well?

Yes, you can copy paste. but you will probably have to reposition everything.

*UPDATE*

Erhmm, I did it.

Here's what I did:

I open the i3d files from my own mod, the working mod in 2 Giants Editors, screwed around, got pi**, lost all my hair, Alt+F4.
Tried again, carefully looked at the working mod in GE, found out how to create TransformGroups, adjusted nodes ( never looked at that before ) added the code and mappings ( also new to me ) to the .xml, and voila.

*EDIT* And ofcourse I just found this now, a tutorial from 82 Studio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lDOIx2OYLuw anywho, now I'm off to throw passengers in everything I can get my hands on hehe.
