— In-game description |
The R-5b “Sisyphus” Hauler is a Colonial variant of the Truck. It offers the ability to boost (by pressing Shift
) in exchange of an inventory slot (14, against 15 of the standard Truck). Boosting the truck will increase its speed by circa 10%, but increases fuel consumption by 5 fold. Constantly using boost is very fuel inefficent, and can use up a full tank in a little over 3 minutes of driving.
Trivia[ | ]
- The model is very similar to the default Colonial truck, save for the wheels and canvas roof.
- The name refers to the Greek legend Sisyphus, who was the king of Ephyra. He was cursed to roll a big boulder up a hill, only for it to roll down every time he reaches the top, having to repeat this task for eternity.
