Woo! Giant dropship!




Have fun!

Cheers to Asklar and Kettenkrad for help with code, and Miggles for sprite advice.

Uploaded the fixed version, has you some fun.

its Very Steampunk, Great Job!

Just need some Drop Pods and your Fine.

Will download anything you make, Major.
Looks good, feels good. Nice addition to my collection!

EDIT: After giving it a good test run in combat and actually using it as a dropship i've discovered a few issues.
First off for a 'heavy' dropship it's incredibly fragile. A few AK-47 shots and it was gone (Brilliant wreckage sprites though!) I suggest beefing it up a bit and giving it a bit of bullet resistance.

Secondly when dropping troops and/or supplies off it only comes onto screen about halfway, drops everything extremely quickly (often resulting in several deaths due to my troops falling on eachother) and then flies off again.
So I suggest making the ship come slightly lower to the ground before opening up and then dropping each thing inside with a longer delay between each one.

Fragillity: Done.
Dropspeed: Done.
But I don't actually know how to fix the hover height. Help anyone?

I'l upload the fixed version tomorrow.

Dude it's not steampunk, it's dieselpunk.

And hey Major, I didn't say anything too smart to be in the credits, but oh well. Thanks anyway.

By the way, epic DropShip is epic. Transporting two squads of your japanese soldiers never felt sooooo goood.

Fixed version is out, all the above issues have been fixed.
You helped, and you explained how my idiocy had made my dropship fly like a brick, so all good.

Major, you should definitely make the center circle of the sprite a bright yellow smiley face. It would really add to the fierceness of this monster.

If I may make a suggestion, it seems like a really detailed and well made sprite, but those bright red flags on the engines seem kind of out of place, and the entire thing seems to be a shade or two too dark for CC's relatively bright and clean style. Maybe that's just me.

I dunno... I kinda like the way it came out in the end, not to just pooh-pooh your feedback, but the darkness suits the rest of the mod and eventually, if I can be arsed, the mod is gonna be a full conversion of CC.

Also, @ Jackal, ahahahahah! That would be hilarious.
