how has no one created this yet??

how has no one created a car catapult such as the one used in crash testing?..they've made the cube crusher. cool but boring...or the ability to implement roadside IEDs for added destruction.exploding objects on impact.ability to VBIED a vehicle...i could go on?

 

I'm not sure proper explosions are possible right now, but sounds fun. Have you played around with the cannon? It's very fun.

 

I had lots of fun with this in 0.8, haven't tested it yet in 0.9 though:

its been made.... idk if it works still

Well, since it was made in 2014, I am assuming not, but I guess you could give it a shot. Good find.

 

things that simple should still work i would think. upon my last check, my mobile home mod still works. its from around then

 

I can confirm it still works.

 

wrong type of catapult. im talking about the hook that pulls a car at over 100mph to crash test vehicles

 

yeah i tried it but its pointless

 

Catapults are so middle ages..

 

where can i get the stig mod?

 

I'm guessing the node grabber lock, before the hotfix when resetting the car kept it in the same place?

 

It was the unintentional effects I had while working on a mod, to hold the covet in place (while it got run over and pulled apart by monster trucks.)
There is an invisible base underneath it with collision triangles. It was accidentally raised up into the wheel collision triangles. How the game didn't crash with 'instabilities detected', I will never know.

Anyways, the point is - there are many ways to destroy things in BeamNG. similar to what the op is looking for.

 

its been two years ive yet to find it LOL
