Got a chuckle out of me...

Reminds me of the Halo Warthog physics experiment clip... that was classic. Hope nobody missed that one...

Tank on the tower

It took 3 raptors and 2 hours to get that sucker up there. Next challenge- getting it on top of the middle tower.

How is this done??

Must have driven the tank onto the raptors, then they all move in synch up to the tower.

I mean, how else?

Well, you could change the gravity on the server, get a single raptor to push the tank above the tower, then change gravity back to normal.

Default gravity settings were used. You line up three raptors then drive the tank on. It actually works better if the tank drives on facing the same way as the raptors, but I don't have a screenshot of that. Once the tank is off the platform, the raptor pilots just start moving up in unison. After much trial and error, we found out that if one person counts (tap, tap, tap, tap....) and the pilots hit the space bar on the taps, it's (relatively) easy to move up at the same pace. The tank driver, meanwhile, needs to be constantly adjusting to stay on top of the raptors. It's extremely hard if there is no one in the tank to make adjustments.

Edit: Maybe next LAN we'll get around to putting the tank on top of the main middle tower. It's definitely doable, but it will be time consuming.

Take pics when you drive it off the edge.

The only other pics I have are of the tank sitting on top of the tower. I believe a few of my friends have pics of the tank driving off, falling off the raptors...etc. I believe one even has a video of us putting it up there. I'll see, maybe I'll get the pics up later this week.
