andersson 285 Posted October 14, 2007 edit: my comp froze so I had to force it off... I think its a very good idea from commando84, make it a floating rig. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pathetic_berserker 4 Posted October 15, 2007 Realy like where this is heading icemotoboy but i have a few issues, some of which you probably know about 1. the 2 stair cases down to the lower level should be the open steel kind not concrete. 2. the straight stairs leading to the lower level don't have enough head clearance. In reality you could make these stairs steeper to solve. 3. I find the containers sitting around the lower level a tad unrealistc. I did notice the hatch for containers, but knowing what it takes to push those things around, they will be moved the shortest distance possible. 4. I would have thought the lower level to be perfect for some more storage tanks and more of those immersion elements like pipes and valves. 5. some more immersive elements throughout the building such as pipes, control panels, desks, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commando84 0 Posted October 15, 2007 also during testing when i tried setting up a new mission for the future of the oilrig i discovered it cant be blown up like a building or so :P shoot at it with all weapons from a Ka-50 and mh-6 and without destroying it. though it killed everyone that was on it btw also many walls and some of the floors you shoot through them :P very annoying when a.i shoots me through the floors. And also when im at the chopper pad after i made a fast landing and disembarking my troops and attacking the enemy on the oilrig the fences or whatever they are called that are wire fences are extremely bullet proof, like its air here and there but they stop bullets anyways...

Grinman 0 Posted October 15, 2007 Just place the base first then stack the others on top.Btw...Dont place the rig to far offshore...Mine went under surface of water have you tried setpos-ing it higher? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commando84 0 Posted October 15, 2007 imo setpos'ing can be fun but its also time consuming and when im thinking of setposing the oilrig and then all the troops, weapon crates and any other misc objects or vehicles on the oilrig it will get very much to work with but i wish i can blow up the oil rig so a ship config would be cool, tonight after school i will test how it will be with a few of Törnis AA guns around the oilrig to test its capabilities as a heavy defense platform.
