Impressive work, it somehow reminds me of the omnipotence in Populous.

About this:

Sadly that is something I can't fix as far as I know. CC just does that - if you watch the seam for long enough, you'll see people crossing it over it exploding.. I'll look into any fixes later, but no guarantees.

I could not resist looking at your code and happened to spot the problem in the line of code below.
Code:
--Make the object fly toward the cursor position.
self.grabbedObj.Vel = self.cursorPos - self.grabbedObj.Pos

The velocity of grabbedObj will be enormous since the calculation above disregards wrapping, and the forces necessary to accelerate the object to these speeds will disintigrate it.

Crash report:
Used death cursor on FBM whilst using more than one brain. Brain status was switched to second brain whilst cursor remained. Game crashed on further attempts to use FBM's functions.

Using the Finger of Death on the CB 4200 kills both it and the cursor for me. Any other circumstances that might be causing this?
Listing circumstances.
Skirmish
Death Activities, Vanilla
Alternate brain is identical copy of brain case with HitsMOs and GetsHitByMOs = 0 (Yeah I'm a cheater, live with it)
Similarly altered FBM. (Would changing those really have an effect?)
None of my units on-field besides the brains.
Crash trigger was attempt to use the physics dragger on a downwards moving dropship.

First class jobby TLB, if you're ever in London I'll buy you a drink. This is the kind of benchmark stuff that gets people interested in CC and modding.

Are you using the latest Internet Explorer? Because it tends to scramble text a bit.

Just crashes every 4 minutes. Maybe it's because I put another brain along with it?

On a side note, if this mod gets tweaked a bit, it can essentially create a fun fort defense game mode, where you drag enemies to death or 'shoot' them from the 3rd dimension. Or a tower defense mode if it can be made to place different turrets.

You Deserve the official Cortex Command "Awesome Award"

This is only ever the second Mod that should be made Vanilla (along with Darkstorms)

Brilliant, if a little laggy on an ancient machine.

Nilla? This is much, MUCH too overpowered and awesome to be Vanilla. It would throw the balance of the game off SO far.

This mod made me discover there's a speed limit to things before they suddenly vanish and crash the game. Physics tool...not fun when you have to control how hard you throw things.
