I don't think lasers are modeled in to the game. It would be cool though!

Well, having eyes that would shoot lasers seemed a bit too much to ask for.

You ask how the sub is coming along. I think you'll like this.

Jesus christ! I just can't believe what I'm seeing right now. All that's missing now is Dr. Evil's submarine!
Oh and maybe you should add fins on the side too, to make it look more like a shark.

Dr. Evil's submarine is probably not a sub I'd actually make. I like making out of the box subs but that's a little too far.

The sub does have fins, they deploy when diving. The goal was to have it look like a shark under water, not so much when surfaced.

You're right about the fins, I realized that when I gave a closer look at your picks. As for Dr. Evil's sub, we'll probably see it coming true someday!
Are the two extandable tubes working too?

Yes they do work. The outer tubes launch torpedoes forward while the inner tubes launch torpedoes backwards. Even the jaw works with all four front torpedo doors. You can open all four tubes and the jaw will stay open. What I can't get around is when you close an inside door the jaw will close no matter what because it's linked to each of the front four torps.

In the Dr. Evil theme that has taken hold of this thread, I just have to say... "you want sharks with frikin laser beams attached to their heads?"

Maybe have a fifth tube that opens the jaw?
