The Wrench - Fall 2024

Welcome to another installment of The Wrench, a look at some of the great work from Squad’s modding community.

What follows are updates sent to us by the people behind the mods themselves: their words, images, and amazing work!

Vehicles Seed Layers by Niaxa

No more boring Seed sessions lasting several hours!

Do you want to practice flying a helicopter? It's possible, and this while seeding your favorite server!

Do you want to do tank battles? This is also possible! You have the choice among many vehicles such as MBT, MGS and IFV.

A quad or motorcycle race...? Obviously, it’s possible!

Do you want to play chill in infantry? New areas are available! Prepare for fast and intense battles: no respawn time, buddy rally, and 2 HABs per FOB.

All 14 layers currently available work with the votemap. And all factions are available on all layers!

To summarize: 3 zones, 3 times more fun. The zones cannot join together (invisible wall). It’s up to you to discover them!
