[needed] Unpoto transport barge - Page 2

Wonder if you could make it sort of like your retractable deck gun.

Default is deployed, but have a command to stow it.

is the dinghy we release on supply runs the CMD_small_boat ?

Thanks to Miner1436's model I edited his landing craft and made an Unpoto :

She has news spheres in the .zon too and the AA gun is moved aft and to the starboard side.

She has twin props with torpedo body as in RL.

She is still missing a filed artillery piece as cargo though..

It's miner's model, I just rescaled it to the right size.

You shoot the node to destroy it.
The object should float off then.

In a rough theory that is.

After some more thought, this idea would not work for the object I was "towing". I would have to come up with a new idea for a "tow-able" object. Mine was actually a 3D model attached to a node that linked it to the sub thus making it a part of the sub, same idea as a conning tower being attached to the sub, it became part of the sub. It was not a separate ship/sub/barge object it was actually "part of the sub".
So I would have to come up with an idea to attach another "real" object to be linked to the sub. So far I have been unable to get anything to actually follow a playable sub without being part of the sub. I would require more time to come up with a idea, if I can actually find one that will work.
At this point I don't have the answer.

What about doing it like a periscope?

Scope is "safe" when retracted, but can be damaged when deployed.

You start mission and deploy the towed (or stowed on deck) object, and it can be damaged. To cut it loose you retract it. Not perfect, I'll admit.

it would be big to fit in the hull if retracted ?

best would be some node that would trigger a launch and make one appear like the dinghy, but how to make the one lashed on deck disappear after that I don't know...

Type 4 Ka-Tsu

The Ka-Tsu's primary purpose was to transport cargo and/or troops ashore.[2] It was unarmored apart from some light shielding for the crew. Its engine compartment and electric final drives were hermetically sealed, as it was intended to be launched from a submarine.[3] The twin drive propeller shafts were designed to retract "into their ducts" once the vehicle reached the beach.[2]

And can't find it anymore....

Am looking for good free models of Daihatsu barge, unpoto and underwater tanks to use as deck cargo
