Hey, just as the title suggests, I've been trying to change the ownership of a Skid steer (belonging to an abandoned player) to the mayor of a settlement (me). Trying to do it via the vehicle's deed and an executive order doesn't seem to do it. Am I missing something? Or is this just not possible without admin commands?

That is purposefully no longer possible due to vehicles not being assigned to any specific settlement like normal deeds are and as such any settlement technically being able to take over the ownership the moment the vehicle enters the influence of the town. Unfortunately this was heavily abused.

In a future version we may be able to tie vehicle deeds to the settlement of its owner as well to ensure that they cannot be seized by foreign settlements. There is no guarantee for that happening nor an ETA, though.

You can still (and it should now also work again), ignore authorization for vehicles that are in your influence to move them somewhere more convenient.
