Author Topic: Can mount a vehicle on a vehicle?  (Read 2239 times)

Is there any way to mount a vehicle onto another vehicle? It must be a vehicle and not the player-type-thing like the turret is on a tank, I don't think that will work for what I'm going for.

If you want to know why I need this, take a look at the below image attachment, that should be enough.

I really don't know but good job on that model
cookies for you :D  :cookie:  :cookie:  :cookie:  :cookie:


Can I have that truck,  please ?

i bet you could mount a vehicle onto a vehicle  i don't really know how but i bet you could
also nice job on the truck

I just want to know if there is any way to do this. There must be a way to connect two vehicle meshes together. Trying to make the trailer into a bot that is mounted on the truck is a last-resort, which even then is still probably not going to work the way it is needed to at all.

You can mount a vehicle on a vehicle. That's what the tank does. The tank itself is a vehicle, the turret is a bot.

Warning: I have no idea whatsoever about scripting this is mearly an educated guess.
I suppose you could take parts of a standard player script and put them into a vehicle's script to make them be able to mount another vehicle.

Lets see...can you mount a vehicle too another vehicle?



yup, you can  :cookieMonster:

Also, sorry for page stretch.

you just disproved yourself. a bot is not the same as a vehicle, so how can the tank be mounting a vehicle on a vehicle, when you just said yourself that it mounts a bot on a vehicle?

@Funinabox: I don't see how a pile of horses helps much...

As lovey as this is, to my knowledge, the most you can hope for is a little area that encloses a vehicle.
Sorry bro.

The tank turret isn't a vehicle, it's a player in disguise.

The tank turret isn't a vehicle, it's a player in disguise.

Which is a bot. And a bot is a vehicle.

Which is a bot. And a bot is a vehicle.
a bot, is NOT, a vehicle. The jeep, is not a bot, the jeep is a vehicle. the horse is not a vehicle, the horse is a bot. However the horse is labeled as 'vehicle_horse'

Bottom line, the Jeep and Horse are very very different. And the horse "vehicle" is not what i am referring to as being a vehicle here.

Uhh.... that probably wouldnt produce very nice results as far as collision goes...... flying semi-much? However, thats a pretty cool idea (and model :3 sweet job)

If the other vehicle had a mountpoint where you would put a bot, which can mount and can be mounted to, it could probably mounted to the other vehicle. On the other hand, you won't be able to drag it. So it's safer the assume that you can't.
