Interesting question... I highly doubt it, I think it's more a function of coding than it is about building an object that actually catches on a tailhook.

Then again, you could take the structure of a CV and lower it into the runway (negative Y axis).

Yes it is possible, you need to make a poly with an ID of 402.

Once again Hitech proves he "coads" by blowing all our minds in not understanding the polyID.

Very sweet, many thanks HT. :aok


In what kind of circumstance would you use Surface_Model_ 20010?

It really isn't used in any of our terrains.It is used internally for controlling how hits are displayed.  Its only effect is on how hits are displayed, if you would tag a poly like that, when you shot it, you would get the same hit effects as on an airplane.

So pretty much what I understood is that the "Surface_Model_ 20010" can be used to generate an object that when it is hit by bullets, it has the same effect as hitting an airplane (IE. Makes holes instead of flashing hits).
