some fun mods for travel that I would like added #668

Open pl608 opened 3 years ago

pl608 commented 3 years ago

Hydroplane:

https://github.com/APercy/hidroplane adds a water plane that ca fly when biofuel is added

Trike

https://github.com/APercy/trike this one is a ultralight aircraft

Motor Boat

https://github.com/APercy/motorboat a nice little motor boat

Helicopter

https://github.com/APercy/helicopter adds a helicopter as you can see

air_utils

https://github.com/APercy/airutils stuff for helping airport management

as you can see I like APercy's mods...

they all (except for the air_utils) can be dyed any color so that is kind of nice

we can discuss some of them, sure, i don't think we should just blindly add all of them IMO.

Also: Is there a clean way to remove the mods again? I think they only introduce an entity to "ride" on but i'm not sure this can be aliased and may result in a unknown object if it were removed (didn't try that yet)

Oh, another thing i just saw: they need mobkit as a dependency, not sure how that works compatibility-wise :thinking:

No there is no easy way to clean them up... they can be "killed" though and will drop the items needed to make them.

It will result in unknown objects, however cleanup can be done by registering (with the force) entity with same name and adding step callback that deletes entity immediately. bit more complicated than simple alias but not too complicated.

Few days ago quickly browsed through mods and seems to be high quality work (but ofc have to test first...). Lag might cause some challenges when trying to control these devices...

Yes lag can make these objects harder to control.

on another note, I am making a mod that will be compatible with these. not quite to the usable level, but almost there. More Fuels

Are the typos in the names deliberate? pertrolium & diesil vs petroleum & diesel

I played around with that mod a bit, looks very promising, the oil is a bit too "plain" black though (back when i tested it anyway)
