    Something that'd hold about 5 people, I need it for a map I'm working on.

    I don't think so. Unless you made it out of double and single boxes, it won't work.

    I actually think that would be possible, with a slanted wall in the front, dunno about the sides, and barrels for the wheels. Not sure for the top tho.

    its possible. I have a crappy looking one but has good features. its on lots of barrels which represent tracks. The main body is a double wall as the floor with barriers a top that as walls. Between the crack between the front and side barriers there are turrets. ( one for each side.)there are wepon holders on top of the bariers and walls and doors on top. The weapon holders lift the roof a bit so u can Br out of it. Lodged in the back is a warthog that cant be moved. IF your goin for likea 25mmbushmaster canon id sugest a guass other wise regular hog will suffice. BUt ya mine plays really well its jsut really ugly. but ya posible.

    No way to make it move, actually there is haha.

    Make a conveyor belt like in Pallet Parade. Put your design on their and watch it move.

    I think that would work.

    Yes I need to make it move, I tried glueing a single open box to a warthog but it wouldn't go :( Oh well thanks for the info anyway, map's almost done and I just used a Gauss hog in its place.

    Nope it wouldn't

    The doors, wall and weapon holds are all immovable objects meaning once they are set, they are set, even if the floor beneath them moves.

    Then the only way to make it would be out of something different, pallets?

    It could be a destructible APC.

    Pallets fly out the warthog as soon as they spawn :(

    You can't make anything with a cohesive structure move, sadly.

    And thats where your wrong.

    See, when you place an immovable object into something that is forever moving (Moving pallets, MANCANNONS, for example) It will spawn in the direction that the force its placed on is moving.

    Please keep in mind this is all theoretical, but it sounds feasible.

    Unfortunately, no. There is no way to make "custom vehicles" short of modding the game, and you can't merge objects into vehicles (they'd have to be immovable, and that kind defeats the purpose of a vehicle =/)

    Not sure if its possible with immovable objects. But i think dumpsters might be movable. Not sure though. You could use the Pallet Parade mechanism with a bunch of dumpsters and pallets. Then a turret on back.
