finally...
A bit about it
I have been developing and testing this tank frame for quite a while (8 months at least) but I forgot about it for a while. Then, I realized that this would be great for Snowstone.
Since then, it was designed specifically for use on and around Snowstone. Because of this, some major changes were made, such as the reduction of weapons, and the ability to float across short areas of water. Also, the hill climbing and terrain abilities were much improved, though the approach angle was partially hindered by the frame, which is a bit too long to allow for this to work especially well.
Instructions
The instructions are in game. However, nobody can stop me from putting them here too.
Pitch and roll: drive around
Activate 2-5: drop mine
Activate 1: bote mode:
While in bote mode, a small gyroscope as well as a propeller (jet) is activated. Also, some waterbrakes (modified airbrakes that were taken off of broken down planes) on the sides are activated, allowing it to turn. It drives the same on water as on land, with pitch and roll.
Break stops it quite fast, so be very gentle. Unless you really want to stop, I suggest you reverse whatever you are doing with pitch and roll to stop it, rather than using brake. However, the brake is very helpful on big hills.
Also, the acceleration is a bit more than a tank realistically should have... unfortunately, I could not figure out a better way to do this becase of simple planes' amazing physics, so your gonna have to live with it.
VTOL and trim aim the cannon. (Be sure to use the cannon view to aim better.)
Weapons
There are not many weapons on this. It has a cannon, for shooting. (I guess thats what you do with cannons, right?)
Also, it has mines. These are made by @Pophead
It can be found here
I modified them slightly, but am limited to 7 because of the lack of activation groups. (It has a total of 4)
Does anyone know of a better way of making mines so it can carry more than just that? Would be nice in the future.

this is so satisfying to watch
Have fun climbing the walls!

And another thing, this probability would work fairly well on Maywar, but I have not tested it there. (Mobile user moment...)
Hi.
squinting at thumbnail
...what exactly am I looking at-
Oh there it is. Okay.
I’d still have some suggestions. I’ll see if I have time to make some changes later.
@TheMouse how did you put more that 3 pictures???
20th upvote and comment 😎
Btw, the vhicle kinda confuse me, idk why.
@Graingy
Yeah, that's what happens when try to build both boats and tanks at the same time.
@TheMouse I can’t speak to its performance, but it looks egregious.

Chrome ahh tank
Pioner
@TheMouse it looks like a submarine 👍
@Graingy
With applesauce.
Yeah, this has some problems, I got a bit rusty at building after a few months. What specifically do you not like?
@Graingy lol
Do you take constructive criticism?
@PrussianAirlines
Thank you!
Wheeeeeeeeee
Very interesting design.
@B1BLancer
not intentionally, but I see it.
@Boeing727200F
hi
Ħì
Is it French? Looks like an early French interwar period tank!
