Overview
This entity is used in combination with emp_vehicle_spawner give mappers the ability to spawn vehicles on demand. A vehicle configuration is stored in this entity as a preset to later be spawned. Things to remember:
- The maximum number of armor plates per side is 6
- Each chassis has its own version of each engine, and giving a jeep engine to a heavy tank may produce undesired performance loss.
- You may place up to 8 weapons per vehicle.
- This does not abide by weight or chassis restrictions, so absurd configurations are possible.
- You have to have the weapons/armor/engine the tanks use researched or the game will crash!
