It also means that you would need 2 types of the balloons in the game, with 2 different models.

There were three possible usage for barrage balloons:
- land based
- fitted aboard barges and tugboats at anchor near ports, estuaries, etc.
- fitted aboat sea-going vessels, especially warships and landing crafts (in this case I think only the smaller model, i.e. "D-Day type" to put it clear was used).
Until we convert dat ships into GR2 units, at least the second usage will require dat balloon anyway (GR2 euipment is rendered totally black on dat ships). Since we are at it, why not trying to give dat balloons some nice extra effects?

I am currently busy with the FXU 0.0.22 fix, but let me know if you need for help with the controllers.
