Vehicles
Multi-passenger vehicles have been added to Star WarsTM Galaxies! There are a total of 8 vehicles that now have ground-based, multi-passenger functionality.
Existing Vehicles: Previous versions of these vehicles will now have multi-passenger capabilities. For example, if you already own an X34 speeder, your vehicle now carry another passenger! X31, X34, Flash Speeder, BARC, AV-21
New Vehicles: Master Artisans craft these new multi-passenger vehicles. AB-1 (new), XP-38 (new), V-35 SoroSuub Carrier (new) Also known as "the Lars family speeder".
Multi Passenger Commands
/offerRide -- asks the target player if they would like to accept a ride. This command also appears on the radial menu. The "offer ride" menu will not show up if the target passenger is already mounted onto the vehicle.
/acceptRide -- Passenger accepts the ride.
/declineRide -- Passenger declines the ride.
Once a passenger accepts the ride, they are placed inside the vehicle and can ride along. Passengers can click on the vehicle to get the Enter/Exit Vehicle menu, which will drop them out of the vehicle. Drivers will be unable to kick people from the passenger group until they exit the vehicle. When the driver of a vehicle exits the vehicle, everyone else in the passenger group will too.
