[Robzilla45]

Could someone please explain how to launch in the water! I'm trying to build a boat... and well... I'm stuck! HELP ME PLEASE!

You have to fly it there, roll it there, or hyperedit (a mod) it there. Think of it as an extra exciting design challenge!

[Robzilla45]

Yeah... I can do that... but what's with the water launch thingy in the control parts?

[Vanamonde]

The what?

[Robzilla45]

I'm speaking of the 'FS3WL water launch system' located in the command and control parts....

[Robzilla45]

Ok, so how do I use this thing? I'm just trying to build a boat... but I can't seem to launch it properly. Anyone got any ideas?

I hyperedit, but you can put wheels on the bottom. I do that sometimes.

[Jon144]

You can always roll them into the water on detachable wheels. But generally boats can turn out to be very part count intensive and hyperedit saves you on a lot of time, effort and FPS.

Merged into your existing thread for this issue.

Ummm... This isn't a stock part. Any mods you're using?

[Mic_n]

it's part of Firespitter, I believe. Haven't messed with it much but I think you can activate the part to 'teleport' your craft to the water.. I'd suggest checking out the manual/forum thread for the Firespitter mod, though.

Official documentation on how to use the Water Launch System that comes with the Firespitter plugin

In the future, Robzilla45, if you have a problem with a mod part, please post your question in the relevant mod's thread.

Thanks for the help (sorry, I have used Firespitter so much.. I didn't realize that this part was from a mod... duh!). I've got it now!

I think that's in Firespitter, but I haven't used it.
