SWEET again! as a grape fruit  :cookie:

I can do the all guns but they would not be able to rotate. I am not that advanced yet. But when I get to learn that, I will make it so the turrets can rotate.

Then just do a machine gun on the front.

That still won't work. Turrets like on the tank are just playertypes with a script where you can ride them, like the horse. Then the playertype is almost like seated on the vehicle. when you switch to the slot the player is in, it mounts you to the player. You cannot limit how much the player can turn, unless you want the front machine gun to rotate like a tank turret, it will have to just be a fake gun mounted to it. Then I make a script where it spawns a bullet when you click. The bullet is spawned near the fake gun, but since the fake gun is not rigged or anything, the bullet, nor the gun, will be able to rotate up/down

No, like just a forward firing machine gun.

I will model this...
Told you I would. However this is of too high poly. I could lower it how ever.

Doesn't the MKI travel at around 5km/h? Slower then walking pace?

ffffuuuuuuuu


Does this mean I don't have to do my model now?

If you send me the model I could get it to work in game without backfaces and a ton less polys.

Male had cannons and the female had machine guns.

You could if you wanted too. Heed could choose. I will prepare a lower poly version.
