Title: Zodiac on Trailer
Post by: rancor_man67 on 20 Nov 2002, 07:10:17
Hi,

Would it be possible to put one of the zodiac Addons out there onto a trailer? It could just be a static object or could it be pulled by somthing like a Jeep or Humvee? Then if you put it in the water and hit a buttion in the command menu, it could de-attach from the trailer, and you could drive it!!!

Someone would have to make a propeller for it as it dosen't have one yet.

Thanks,


Rancor.

Detachable, i think not to be honest mon ami.  You might be able to use a command.  For instance, as a human player you can climb into a vehicle and when that vehicle moves you are basically attatched to it.  Now i'm no scripting or CPP guru but you might be able to have a 'get in trailer' command for the Zodiac.  Sounds pretty hard, but its a possibility....

What you have to think about is whether its worth it...Is there an easy way to do this without a trailer? Some easy scripting or something.

Yeah, there is another way to do this. Dose anyone know how to stop boats drifting off when allongside a beach? They always seem to turn side on and get washed up with me.

Any ideas?
