So, I created a drop crate. It's just an ACRocket with null legs, like the vanilla drop crate, but it doesn't rotate while falling.

The thing is that when it is created, it opens it's doors and whatever is inside goes out. So, I decided to give it a script that makes it's AI turn to "Stay", but still, it keeps happening.

How do I make it work properly?

I made a drop crate with thrusters on it a long time ago, and had the same problem. Dunno what causes it, though. :???:

I guess you could look into drop pods an such in other mods and see how they behave. Although they might dispense actors by gibbing.

The vanilla drop crate inherits its initial velocity in .ini, though I have no idea if that's what keeps the doors shut. You could also try adding the new AI script to it.

My beloved Roast Veg, it seems that copying and pasting that bit of code made the trick.

Thanks a billion!

No problem, it was just something i noticed a good while ago.

I noticed that too, and I also noticed that they had ini AngularVel. So I thought it was the AngularVel important, not the normal Vel.

Anyway, I'm still grateful.
