you wont be able to put vehicles in it but you can probably put it in bl. keep the collision mesh extremely simple so it doenst instantly crash servers on collision with something else, and make sure the wheels keep the thing from touching the ground even on hard landings

Isn't something akin to the GSF carrier possible? I mean I know you can't have convex collision boxes but I could cheat by having a U-shaped one with the top just not having one.
Also obviously the doors wouldn't be functional but just for looks.

interestingly enough the lag on collision problem for larger vehicles isn't the collision mesh itself, but the bounds. the larger the bounds, the bigger the lag. the collision mesh probably plays a role too but in testing i've discovered that the bounds has a larger impact. keep that in mind when making vehicles like this

With too many faces in your collision mesh or and oddly shaped mesh you will encounter weird errors like projectiles passing through your vehicle, or shadows not displaying properly. I had that a lot with most of my tanks.

just having a massive vehicle constantly touching another vehicle a lot will be a problem
