RIAutomobility (Automobility Addon)
by SShakusora
RIAutomobility is a Forge addon for Automobility that adds multi-seat vehicles, new frames, wheels and special vehicles for 1.20.1.
What it does
Two vehicle series, the Double Motorcar and the Quad Motorcar, each come in five variants: Wooden, Copper, Steel, Golden and Bejeweled. Special vehicles include the Lorry, a large truck with container storage, the DMC12 in classic sports car styling, and the Standard Formula in formula racing style. Matching wheels are made for the DMC12 and the Standard Formula.
Seats are not limited to the driver. Passengers can ride along, and seats can be switched while the vehicle is moving. Built-in parts are listed in the creative inventory or can be crafted at the Auto Mechanic Table, which is part of Automobility. Frames and wheels can also be defined through datapacks, so map and modpack authors can add vehicles with JSON alone and no coding.
The addon requires Automobility, which must be installed alongside it. RIAutomobility runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and the latest build is the beta-channel release of 2026-05-06. It is released under the MIT License and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker.
