It was simply known by the loyal FHSW-europe group, a spare-time project by endless nameless.

When he's done with the train, he does this each who would like to provide?
Has anybody interested?

He could offer also a "map-mod" for vanilla, Could he offer also a "map-mod" for vanilla? If one provides a suitable map of you.

I'm just curious about what the collision meshes look like.

looks great

[Bad Bug]

Wow, that's the bomb. I like it.

I feel like I'm in the mood for my ideas, I was going to ask Bothunter about adding an armored train, but now, I think we can do it. I have some rather narley ideas for a very sick war-train mode!
>:D

This train Code were be cool for example an update for the Old "Western War Mod" in COOP.

I was going to make a game mode where the train has a flag, and the objective is to control it. The train would be made so that it's hard to disable, but nearly impossible to destroy. How, the train would have around 15000 hit points, but the critical state is 10000 hp, with no critical loss. This is so the train cannot die, but can be disabled.

You can have mobile physics on Control Points. Just make sure NOT to attach the control point to a PCO. If you do the game will CTD the moment the round ends or if the vehicle it's attached to dies and gets removed from the map. Even if the host PCO is coded to never die there isn't a known way to prevent the game from removing it from the map at round end as it will do with all PCOs.

I have yet to see any way around this bug.

This is going to sound stupid, but can you addTemplate a PCO to a ControlPoint (with mobile physics) and control it like that?

*MIND BLOWN*
that, might work!
because the spawing of the control point will initiate the spawning of the train!
