Modular Vehicles in Astro Colony

Vehicles are useful to move on planets and to shape the terrain. Depending on the purpose you can attach more tools during a design phase.



The designer is very flexible, allowing for various shape modification, wheels placement which will result with a unique look of your vehicle!
