Operation - Destroy the Airport

5,802 DragonAerotech  8.7 years ago

Includes; Control Tower, Garage w/Dummy Emergency Vehicles & Two Barracks - loosely to scale with our aircraft. Instructions; Remove canopy from the rooftop of one of the barracks buildings and save structure to sub-assemblies. Drag it out along side your' aircraft so it lands next to the landing strip and after take-off - destroy it. No gimmicks, no hidden bombs, some fuel where applicable. It is purely a target. (I'll add hangars later but seeing falling buildings after the update forced my hand. XD)

    Ugh! Don't upvote this! D-: My most useless creation to date!! lol It used to be if you took the main cockpit off of something you could save a whole subassembly, including cockpit parts BUT now subassemblies have to be dragged to the icon! lol Thank you anyway, @JetboyInc

    @MrMecha It's a useless build though, it was intended to be made into a subassembly to drag out so you can destroy the whole thing but when they added the subassemblies tab where you click and drag it, it doesn't bring any of the top of the control tower. I might assemble the pieces again from the new ones. lol

    @MrMecha Thanks for the upvote, but I recommend the more recent builds that resemble this assembly. It used to be that you could take off the one canopy that was set at main and save the rest as a subassembly but then they changed it to where canopy pieces get stripped clean off of a build if you try to drag the build even after the main canopy is stripped. Plus there's the issue of the part count. The other ones were made with far fewer parts thanks to finding my XML files and learning a lil about modding. lol I haven't rebuilt the two vehicles with the reduced part count yet. I also plan to add some hangars with big ole rooftops that look like a quonset hutt with some dummy aircraft as well.

    @TheColonel Actually its a flop. Waaaay too many parts for mobile users and the use of cockpit parts in the control tower prevents it from being saved as a subassembly. After I get caught up on my uploads and current ideas buzzing in my mind I plan to go back and make it in separate sections with fewer parts.

    @Pauciloquent I could probably do that. At the moment it would just be interesting to see what the AI birds will do to it if you plop it on the runway as is. They drop bombs and fire missiles at random it seems and I don't know how many I've seen pancake themselves on the runway! lol Yesterday after landing a new joint creation he asks me; Dad, if an AI controlled plane crashes - don't its parts disappear after a while? I said, "Well of course, or this runway would be littered with all kinds of bits!" He replied, "Well, then what's that over there?" I'll be darned if a bright pink propeller was not sitting dead center in the runway just beyond where I came to a halt. lol As for the mobile users I could probably bring the part count down considerably since it's built up layer by layer. If someone could tell me the limit that would help!

    How dose this have 79202 drag points less then my anvil? It's a building for crying out loud?!?! ... It's very cool dilisvarskvlavi : ) I'm looking forward to the hangers.... maybe you could make them as separate modules (hanger, tower, garage, building) so it could be saved in sub-assembly, and also perhaps use less parts if possible as mobile users can't download anything over 750 parts I think... maybe it was less then 750... can remember...
