    The Dropship Builder Kit will include easy-to-use scripts for enabling simple animation on engines, wings, and dropship pods for landing/deployment/flight modes. Here is a preview of a Dropship landed from the side:

    Looks neat! Do you plan making more ships in this style?

    Can you define 'ships' for me? Do you mean more dropships? Or starships? Or what? Thanks

    I've been so busy working on new Asset Packs that I forgot to send out the newsletter update. :) Thanks for the reminder.

    And thanks! Love making these packages and seeing what people do with them in their games.

    Wow, I can see this doing extremely well, I especially like the included scripts. Thanks for sharing. I'll leave a review in a bit.

    I take it there is no script to fly the aircraft? Couldn't see one.

    No there is no script to fly the aircraft. There are so many variations of flight scripts and dynamics it wouldn't make sense to add that to this package. Thank you for trying it out!

    Fair enough I didn't expect there would be. Couldn't help imagine a game similar to a offroad simulator where you would have to deliver and collect cargo, would be fantastic with a pack like this.

    Nice job anyway! Hope it does well.
