New article for unit class added in 1.31.
{{Note|This article is a work in progress and has yet to be reviewed by SCS staff. Some information may be incomplete or inaccurate.}}

The '''accessory_addon_trailer_cables_data''' unit class is used for adding dynamic trailer cables between a vehicle and its trailer. For player trucks, units of this type are usually defined in '''/def/vehicle/truck/<brand.model>/accessory/trlr_cables/*.sii''' and valid unit names end in <code>.trlr_cables</code>. For player trailers, units of this type are usually defined in '''/def/vehicle/trailer/<trailer_name>/accessory/trlr_cables/*.sii''' and valid unit names end in <code>.trlr_cables</code>. ''This unit type was added in 1.31.''

== Attributes ==
Many common attributes are inherited from [[Documentation/Engine/Units/accessory_data|'''accessory_data''']].

== Model ==
A valid trailer cables accessory model must have the following:
*Some visible geometry (models cannot contain only locators)
*Attachment locators for each member defined in the ''cables'' array, where the truck plug model will be placed. The locator names are defined by each '''physics_trailer_cable_data''' unit's ''locator_prefix'' attribute.

It may additionally make use of the following:
*Rest locators for each defined cable where the trailer plug model will be placed when there is no trailer connected (otherwise the cable will not be drawn/simulated when there is no trailer connected). The locator names are defined by each '''physics_trailer_cable_data''' unit's ''rest_locator_prefix'' attribute.
*Special part names are displayed only during particular states:
**<code>cables_off</code> is displayed only when no trailer is attached
**<code>cables_on</code> is displayed only when a trailer is attached
