Moving Toys For A Track Extension

Post by SIGage »

I decided to resume work on Cucumber Chaos so I added a toy train that runs across the track and a couple of pesky daleks that move about. I built a room for the toys and laid down some panneling and tiles on the floor but I need more things to move about on the floor of the kitchen and the other rooms. Because of the restrictions of MTM they have to run in straight lines. I thought of having a skateboard rolling across which you can go under but it looks odd when it goes through a convinient hole in the wall. Any ideas?

You could try animated bins. Grab the plane from barnyard and see if it sparks any ideas.

Cheers mate I made a jumping robot. it looks a little out of place but i can change it around a bit. it's annoying you can't drive under the object when it jumps though

Set to no collide, or if you offset all the models to the left or right then you should be able to place it where it won't interfere with the trucks but still be visible where you want it.

Yes, you win some, you lose some. Unfortunately, that's one of the choices we're forced to make.
