Highwayman – a car for THIS life
There are only two things you need to do to get your hands on the car: first of all you need to get the so-called Fuel Cell Controller, and then you need to pay $2000 in cash.
Fuel Cell Controller
You can get it from Skeeter in Gekko. He’s willing to trade it for a Super Repair Toolkit, which you can buy or steal from Smitty the mechanic in Dan, or trade Valerie from Walt City for tools (Wrench and Tools).
Car is a good thing, you move fast, less attacked, but the money for this nice thing takes a lot (for what alone are the batteries). With some amount, and some desire, you can improve your car in three ways – economy, trunk size, and speed.
Below are the types of car improvements.
Fuel Cell Regulator.
Fuel Cell Regulator. Unscrewed in Klamath (Traper town) from a similar auto standing on bricks. It can be put in at Smitty’s mechanic in Dan’s for $750. I recommend putting it in, saves batteries by half.
Trunk extension.
If you drive into New Reno from the Virgin Street side and leave your car unattended, it will be stolen. The car can be found by either hot on the trail (coming up to the parking lot), or after talking to Jules (the man near the parking lot), come to the Chop Shop, where the car is already working on. Talk to the head (stands in the room above), we learn that they’re going to improve it and sell it to one of the bosses of the families. If you want your vehicle back, there are five ways:
- Pay money and wait for it to be made;
- if you’re a girl you can pay with services;
- pretend to be a member of a mafia family and take the car on behalf of Bishop;
- shoot them all, get in and drive away;
- turn on the fighting mode, get in the car and drive away (without killing anyone)
In the last two cases, you don’t improve anything.
Speed
To improve the speed come to the NCR, go to the junkyard, find a monk. with him to talk and find out that he is a master, then he for a thousand dollars improves the engine. It will take six hours to improve the engine. Tip: Do not steal the money back before he does his job, ask him about the job before you leave.
Don’t be frightened if you hit someone when entering Broken Hills, help them out from under the car.
When entering the city, you can choose any drop-off point, you will find yourself there, the car will be parked near the nearest Exit Grid.
Some “bugs” with the car
In versions of the game below 1.02 car disappears. It can be returned if you leave the map feet, and then return to the area.
The car can be lost in general, if the game is installed on a maximum installation to leave the map feet (you start moving very quickly), and on arrival at your destination is not visible machine. You need to load the game in a place where the car is still there. The same option is when you go to a city, and near the city runs out of charge, and you’re thrown on the map of the city (in the city will not be a car).
