Vehicle and Mount Systems for Games
From racing cars to rideable dragons, vehicle and mount systems are core to player traversal and combat. Kreonit builds physics-accurate, highly customizable vehicle and mount systems that feel great and scale across platforms.
What We Build
Our engineers specialize in vehicle physics, mount animation blending, passenger systems, and combat integration. We handle everything from arcade-style car handling to simulation-grade flight mechanics.
Vehicle & Mount Types
- Ground vehicles: cars, tanks, motorcycles, buggies
- Air vehicles: aircraft, helicopters, dragons, spaceships
- Water vehicles: boats, submarines, jet skis
- Fantasy mounts: horses, creatures, magical beasts
- Mechs and walkers
- Multi-passenger transport systems

FAQ: Vehicle & Mount Systems
Which engines do you support?
Unity (WheelCollider, custom physics), Unreal Engine (Chaos Vehicle, PhysX), and Godot. We also work with custom physics engines.
Can vehicles have combat mechanics?
Yes. We integrate weapon hardpoints, turret systems, ammo management, and vehicle damage directly into the combat loop.
How do you handle networked vehicles in multiplayer?
We implement dead reckoning and client-side prediction for smooth vehicle networking in multiplayer games.
Can mounts have animation states?
Yes. We build full animation state machines covering idle, walk, trot, gallop, combat, and special ability states with smooth blending.
How long does vehicle system development take?
Basic vehicle: 2–3 weeks. Full racing game vehicle suite: 2–4 months. Fantasy mount system: 4–8 weeks.
