Kitsune Vehicle Overhaul is a vehicle balance mod for 7 Days to Die that fixes an oversight where large cacti dealt excessive collision damage to vehicles, while also introducing a weight-based damage resistance system.

It corrects the missing hit-scale property on tall saguaro cacti so they shatter harmlessly like their smaller counterparts, and gives every vehicle class built-in collision resistance scaled to its weight, stacking with the Intellect Mastery perk. A small HP buff rounds out the changes without inflating repair costs.

The mod works with vanilla vehicles and also supports Bdub's Vehicles without requiring it, and installs server-side only so clients don't need any extra files.

This is a good fit for players and server admins who want more realistic vehicle durability and are tired of minor terrain hazards destroying their rides.
