Post Equiptable Vehicles
I have an idea....

How about make Vehicles as a weapon, so you can equip it as if you were getting in and out of a car/rocket. The projectile would be the thing pushing it forward and aiming would be to control where it is pointing.

That is the basis of my idea. Please do not flame if you do not like the idea, and if this has already been thought of, sorry.

If you want to make it, feel free to do so without asking me, but remember to add me in the credits.
I'm not making the mod, I'm just posting an idea for others to eventually make.

By the way, I'm new to this forum and I think it is pretty nice.

Vehicles are not possible at the moment, at least not actual working ones that aren't some kind of sucky hovercraft, so watch your idea go poof until build 100000 or something when vehicles will be implemented.

Wouldn't work right, at all.

And, even if CC did have vehicles, there's no maps to support them at the moment.

What do you mean by "when vehicles are implemented"? Don't we already have rockets and dropships?

Let me give an example of how it could be done:

You walk up to a rocket.
You go close, right-click, press up when it says "Pick up Rocket".
The rocket sprite covers the actor, and when you press the fire button, the rocket fires come out and propels you up.
You aim to the left and it tilts to the left, so the rocket fire propels you a bit to the left.

Weapon-vehicle's thruster would only go in one direction, and as Alenth said, you could store it.

lol pokeball?

But can't you rotate your gun/rocket? The propellant should come out of the opposite end of where you are pointing.

And, if you store your rocket in mid-air, you would be unprotected if you hit a wall and you can only use your jetpack to move.

Another thing. You need ammo for every weapon, right? This would make it more realistic because rockets need fuel.

I see where he is going with this. He means something like the helipack mod but with a rocket sprite and flaming exhaust. That at least has been done. However being able to pick up actors such as the rocket probably won't happen soon. I guess technically you could have a rocket gib a rocket that could be picked up or better yet make the dropships engines gib an equipable dropship engine that actors could equip and fly around with. I like his idea just seems like he wasn't able to say exactly what he meant which happens sometimes.

You can hold actors.

You can't pick them up, but you can hold and throw them.

It's kinda wierd to do it though.
