The Bug & MAS Mods (Server coming maybe)

I think that you can even check if the player who just mounted the vehicle is in the pilot seat or not, so yeah.
That should do some tricks right? :)

Possiblys.
As it stands, the MAS side will be spawning at the large tunnel on the cliff (The dead-end one), so Powersuits will probably be deployed at the 180 on that road near the 'Vynil Scratch' store, because they can't fit in the tunnel past there. Gunships can be deployed on the cliff nearby or one of the larger roofs.
For the Bugs, I'm debating a fast-travel tunnel system, basicly a set of entries that the Bug team can fit and then use a tunnel hub built off to the side of the map to move about.
The biggy is I don't know what to put as the objective in this map yet :S Siege Gamemode, where MAS needs to cap all the map?

ARGH.... I am so close to getting some things to work... But this bloody error keeps popping up. (CODE RELATED)
I am giving up for today.
Done:
- System to only allow Power Suit Playertype players to pick up Power Suit weapons.
- Configured the rifle of the Power Suit to work with this system.
- Power Suit spawns in standby mode, wakes up when someone mounts it, goes to standby when unmounted.
Not done:
- Started on a support script called Support_ControlledMounts, this allows for a better control over your mech.
- Seperate inventory when you get into the mech, gets saved on unMount. (95%)
- Picking up items for the mech is a bit impossible right now, almost fixed.
Now you can pick it up a lot of times.... Woops, well at least you pick it up! :D
- You actually control the mech itself, instead of just being in the driver seat, this allows you to crouch, sit and all that stuff.
- Crouching is bugged (Blockland glitch, crouching when your own datablock is the Power Suit isn't bugged), can't uncrouch.
Working on it. ???%
- Can't sit. Working on it. ???%
- Weapons you equip, equip to the player instead of the Power Suit.
Haven't started on this, i want to fix the whole inventory first.
As you can see, a lot of nice things that will make the Power Suit superior over the other so called 'mechs' IMO. >:)

Except for the ones Army made randomly :3 Owait he never released those :S
Admittedly though, this system COULD in theory be used for some Mechwarrior inspired mechs...

Mechwarrior mechs would be better off just changing the player type of the players rather than relying on being vehicle like mechs IMO.
