Watercraft

Has anyone made a water craft that works well with TGEA? If so, would you mind sharing?

Thanks in advance.

Has anyone updated this resource to work in TGEA?

Are you serious? No one has made boats work in any of the TGEA versions? That seems very unlikely.

There's some games with boats in them floating around, but don't think any of them are using that resource.

Well I have seen a few as well but they were TGE not TGEA. If anyone has gotten working boats in TGEA I would really love to hear from you.

I did it in a hackish sort of way a couple of years ago by creating an invisible object on the top of the water surface. The waterblock is flat as is, by placing an invisible object at the surface you can then place a hover based vehicle that skims over the top of it. Not a perfect approach but it was easy and worked well enough. Vehicle blockers were placed in shallow water to prevent the vehicles from driving onto land.

I'd pay good money for a watercraft resource for TGE/TGEA
