The problem with this is the way zoning works in Torque.
We currently have three zones, the brick zone, water zone, and a free zone
The free zone is used by all mods that require a zone, so using it usually conflicts with other mods
The water zone is forgeted up, it overrides any other zone, so if you create a free zone in a water zone it won't make 'air' it will make water.
Until zoning gets redone this isn't possible
