What this mod does
Chaos Mod UI adds a chaos mode to BeamNG.drive in the form of a UI app. From a panel you enable effects that make driving harder or turn the road into a spectacle of destruction, ideal for challenges with friends, videos or just an absurd good time.
Available effects
- Objects: drop or launch objects, including meteors since March 2026.
- Your vehicle: forced acceleration, force field and extra downforce.
- Other vehicles: forced acceleration of nearby cars and blowing up the cars around you.
- Environment: friction, wind speed and time scale.
- UI: speed mode and survival chance, with a damage option.
How to use it
Add it like any other UI app and enable each effect from it. If the app goes blank or throws errors, the author recommends reloading Lua with Ctrl+L and the UI with F5, resetting the mod’s settings or deleting its settings.json file in the user folder (ui/modules/apps/chaosModMathkuro). Replays don’t record the app; to control them without it, you can use Alt+R.
Compatibility
The second version arrived in January 2026 and the latest update is from March 2026, during the 0.38 era. It’s by the same author as Extra AI Race Mission and Most Wanted Mission.
