About this Mod
An addon for GTCEu that adds a Cardboard Box as an extension of the mod's Crates. It only holds 9 slots, but can be mass produced relatively cheaply.
Cardboard Boxes can also be broken by hand, unlike Crates.
This also adds a Crate Taper, a machine that will automatically tape up any Crate or Box in front of it, provided it has been supplied with a sufficient amount of Duct Tape.
Recipes.
Also includes fixes to an issue in base GTCEu where breaking a taped crate without the proper tool will delete all of its contents and also an issue with tape overlay syncing.
Future additions/to-do (possibly):
- Option to make Crates and/or Boxes function without needing to be taped
- Option to make all Crates tapable by hand
- Port to GTCEu Modern
- Any other feature I may want to add to GTCEu involving cardboard and/or containers
