Dolly Question

[jzimmerman12 0]

 

 Is there anyway to get the dolly to attach in the water?  It would be nice to transition from water to land with this.

No. We looked and looked at that one but there is no way of precisely defining where water meets land.

 

[Edit] I need to add some more detail to that. Yes, you can read the surface you are on (water/land) but to get the distance from all water to all land meant trying to locate the land by using lat/lon offsets. That's where it all went bad: when you query lat/lon, any result returned is based on the reference point of the user's vehicle. To read lat/lon away from the user's vehicle (i.e. so you can define when the tractor appears) you need to start adding invisible parts to the user vehicle or to add invisible vehicles that 'fly in formation' with the user vehicle. This is actually how many terrain following radars are created.
