Ok, so I have this idea for a map with some Nebulon frigates (new ones im gonna make with interiors). What I want to do for their hangers is have it so if I walk up to a console and hit the enter vehicle button it forces me into a ship directly below it. Im pretty sure that part can be done, but how? Also I want the ship's takeoff to go down instead of up. So basically the ship looks like its attached to the ship, you take off, it goes down a bit and starts going forward. I would like to avoid having to make the vehicle spawn upside down in ZE.
Please help

I don't know how this could work. Maybe there's a lua command?What I want to do for their hangers is have it so if I walk up to a console and hit the enter vehicle button it forces me into a ship directly below it.
That would need a new animation I think, maybe I'm wrong.Also I want the ship's takeoff to go down instead of up.

Re: Some space questions
To make the ship move down when taking off you should be able to just change the TakeoffHeight value in the ship's .odf to a negative value. For example: instead of TakeoffHeight = 1.5, use TakeoffHeight = -1.5.

Re: Some space questions
It would be easier to turn it into a pad that you walk on. Once you step on the pad (entering a region), you get forced into a vehicle.computergeek wrote:What I want to do for their hangers is have it so if I walk up to a console and hit the enter vehicle button it forces me into a ship directly below it.

Do you plan on having AI?
