Frigate of the Land

162k spefyjerbf  8.2 years ago

In 2203, a a small corporate entity known as SPEcorp saw a new market for a radical new vehicle, the hovership. Large, well armed, and veratile, the hovership was perfect for underdeveloped border planets. As a result, the Frigate of the Land was the first hovership to exist. Combining various aspects of hovercars, semi trucks, and naval ships, the Frigate of the Land was a smashing success. With the installation of an Aspyr turret, the Frigate of the Land is widely used by both civilians and bandits who call the borderlands their home.

Controls:
Throttle for driving.
Pitch and Roll for turret.
VTOL=Yaw for flipover system (it will get you upright in case of flippage)

IMPORTANT NOTE: Performance is best at 50% throttle, except in water. Full throttle is best for water.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Joysticks or "use mouse as joystick" options are best for the Aspyr turret!

Combat tips:

AA tanks can't shoot whats behind them very well... try attacking from the back.
Don't shoot yourself or get caught in the blast of that truck you just blew up...

    @Treadmill103 @WalrusManufacturingCO @Ephwurd @OmegAa63 @MAHADI @ChazeGames @KnightOfAraluen Thanks for the support! I have posted a subassemblies post that has all of the parts I use in hovercrafts. If you use them, feel free to tag me, or use the successor function, so I can take a look at them, and (most likely) upvote them.

    @KnightOfAraluen @WalrusManufacturingCO @ChazeGames I will actually have a in depth tutorial, and a subassemblies post. That way, you guys can get all of the info that you want.

    @KnightOfAraluen @WalrusManufacturingCO @ChazeGames I will do something better than the tutorial. I will make a subassemblies post, and then in the description, I will say how they work, and how they should be used. Hover tech is extremely easy to use if you have the right parts, and know how to use them.

    Could you make a hovercraft tutorial? I am wondering how they are made.
