Drop Assault Tank

Description
Vanilla drop tank for survival and/or rp purposes.


The Drop Assault Tank [DAT] is an unmodded, light assault ground vehicle designed to scale a number of otherwise dangerous terrains and avoid being flipped.

Able to be 'dropped' from pretty much anywhere, including high altitude, this tank has the potential to be deployed anywhere, at any time. Two seat design allows for a driver and a gunner.

The weapon on top allows for a full 360 horizontal rotation and up to 87 vertical for accurate aiming while utilizing the MART script for ease of use.

Clocking in at a low 1599 blocks, this tank is also very quick, able to take a good hit or two, and is equipped with a connector on the bottom for docking/restock/refuel purposes. It also has 2 mag plates on the front to allow for improvised clamping when connectors aren't available.



Special thanks to WardenOftheFree for his help with the script and for offering some suggestions in game to help make this design more aesthetically pleasing.

I'll see what I can do.

Yeah I would do that but im playing with another so having 1 driver and 1 gunner is ideal for us

It is possible to make the drive also be the gunner. Doing so may resolve the issue of interference and instead of a gunner seat, have a passenger seat.

That was the idea. I love it personally. I'll see about making some adjustments to it by this weekend to resolve the issue for it.

no worries hope you can fix it, the thing handles like a dream, couldn't flip it if I tried

Hmmm seems I'll have to go back and revise it. Thanks for the input.

This straight up doesn't work with 2 people, if the gunner is able to move the turret it requires the cockpit to not be set to main cockpit however if you don't have the cockpit as main then you cant drive the tank :/
