SWATH Sea Control Ship

Alpha state!!!!
A SWATH CVL from the sea control ship era studies, Ca. 1975-1982
from that little wee jpg, and recollections of the painting reproduced in
various pubs of that era.
I've yet to sort effects for it, so don't worry about putting those in. If you can figure out
where I've gone wrong, let me know.
It's a bit buggy.
There is a deckcrash triggered on the elevator, and you have to drive onto the lift
at a fair clip, or you fall through the transition.:banghead:
It's something to do with an FSDS-MCX scale bug, still chasing that.
For the interim, it's still fun, not too annoying.
I'll get it sorted, sooner or latter. All the ship components are in the parts file if you
want to monkey around or get a sense of how this crappola goes together.
Now I've got to go and do something really stupid.:running:

Pretty cool boat! Thanks for your work!!

The elevator seems to trigger some sort of collision with the aircraft - at least Mahayadi's MV-22 goes up in flames, when it sits on the elevator ;-) Will try Dino's F-35B next!
For me it doesn't show funnel smoke and wake - anything that I'm missing here?

Best regards,

As noted in the first post, it's got some bugs. It's in progress, I just banged the works into drive for storage, and a linkback here so I can get at it without braking cover. Eventually, the wheel will grind back, and I'll figure out all the ways I screwed the pooch.

Ok, well understood. One more question, the ship appears to have 4 sliding doors at hangar level. One (port aft) opens with the movement of the elevator. Can the others be triggered at this stage?
