+8 seats in vehicle solution ?

This is rather a thought then a suggestion as I don't know if this is really possible.
But I've seen this problem with vehicles that can't have more then 8 seats because it's hardcoded. So then I thought; why make a whole vehicle with 8+ seats when you ( maybe ) can make an attachement to it wich looks like the vehicle itself but don't belong to the vehicle ( dynamic part ). It's hard to explain but I hope some of you get it by looking on the pic.
If you really want me to explain it, ask for it and I'll do my best :lol:

I'm pretty sure if there was a way to do this the DEVs would have done it by now.

That's not possible and has been something we looked into long, long ago and has also been suggested many times....

The only way to make that way maybe possible is with python etc to force the 2nd object to stay somehow connected to the main object but that's pretty buggy.

I'm 100% that about a year ago I saw Rhino post exactly the same idea, he was saying that the DEVs will try to see if it works out ok. Apparently not, if he hasn't posted on this matter again.

EDIT: ninja'd by Rhino himself lulz

Perhaps because keys F1-F8 are for seat selection and F9-F12 are needed for other purposes? Combine that with no need for 8+ transport in the original and you have your answer.

Ohais, only 2 of the comments were even remotely less than civil, calm down and use the report function if you feel a mod should come to the thread.

+1

I also don't understand why people are pushing this so much. Personally ı don't know if I really want this even it is possible. People are already wasting so many vehicles with lost of inf in them. Vehicle able to carry 1 full squad is more than enough imo.

erm, everyone besides Kim Jong Il (who, by the way, is always insulting other members) was just pointing out that this is either impossible or a resuggestion. So your post doesn't make any sense.

Ohais, where did I insult Amir here? All I said it's not possible, its something we looked into and it is has been a resuggestion, all which are true.

If anyone is being insulting here its you trying to insult people in this topic, most likley me going off your old posts and that PM you sent me.... :roll:

I think that while in reality you can get x number of people in a vehicle, but in PR its not really needed because everything is scaled down and it would look really stupid if a chinook would carry the whole team. Now it feels right because either more people = more chinooks or chinooks have to go back for another pickup.

Indeed, the main advantage of the Chinook is extra logistics support from other choppers.
