Basics:
Not quite a car, ship, or airplane.. build your own hovercraft to explore over land and sea!
The hovercraft is unlocked as green science tech, and requires plastic to build.
It's less efficient, more fragile, and slower acceleration than the car. Also unarmed. But hey, it goes over water!
By popular request, there's now a Missile-Craft!
It requires separate research (blue and black science), and comes armed with a rapid missile launcher. But keep moving, because it's pretty fragile. It may be slightly cheaty if you play on an ocean map without a swimming mod (for instance CanalBuilder).
Pairings
This mod goes well with Cargo Ships as well as some of my other mods.
Compatibility:
Slightly tweaks the base tech tree to remove the electric engine prereq for flying tech.
Uses collision mask "layer-12". If other mods are using the same, there might be unexpected behavior.
Planned Features:
- Further GFX improvements
