Amphibian Mode (BETA)

v7 beta documentation in progress. v7 beta documentation may be incomplete or inaccurate.
v7 functions and features may be significantly different from previous ACS versions.
These instructions are not valid for current v6+ ACS!


Requires the Amphibian Sensor script.


By adding the Amphibian Sensor script to your vehicle, the vehicle will detect if you are on land or water and switch physics settings accordingly. The vehicle uses the boat setting from the Root Settings script while in Amphibian Mode, with the exception of the NoseUp setting.

Unlike Flight Mode, Amphibian Mode is engaged automatically when the vehicle is in contact with water. Amphibian Mode also can trigger custom particles in the ParticleSystem script as well as prim repositioning recorded with the TurnSystem.

Do not enable Boat Mode in the root settings. (B_Mode must remain FALSE).


Setup


Things to Know

  • Do not enable Boat Mode in the root settings. (B_Mode must remain FALSE).
  • Amphibian mode will not lift/tilt the front of the vehicle (NoseUp setting is only used in pure boat mode).
