Feature request: base that fits popular plane models from other games #40

Open lifelike opened 2 years ago

I do not know if this is feasible or easy to do, but maybe it is possible to make a base without the airplane on, but with a slot that fits the pins used to hold aircraft in some other popular games that are sold with nice pre-painted airplanes. Worst case maybe just a hole where a pin from that game system can be glued and used to attach a plane. The base could still be stackable on top of the altitude markers and of course fit the movement templates.

Actually I am not sure I would want to use this anyway. It just seemed like something that was possible and maybe someone else would enjoy. Please close if it seems like a bad idea.

This is actually already in the files, great minds think alike eh? ;)

There is a blank plane STL model, but at the moment it has no slot.

If you have a game in mind, and know the size of the stand, I can create one specifically and add it to the existing models :)

@lifelike I have finally gotten around to adding an expansion that allows for use of X-Wing TMG pieces.

Did you have any other games in mind that I could create pieces for?
