Reminds me of the ravenholm minecarts from halflife 2 more than it does the spinner.

Quite an excellent creation you did there. Time to make these beauties move at max speed across the meeting hall.

What would happen if you removed the CONTAINER_CAPACITY tag?

Presumably, it would be unable to hold items.

But that's just a guess. There would need to be ‼science‼ done to be sure.

hmm.
if you removed the carry capacity and gave it the attack properties of a serrated disk, then placed it on a small circular track made of rollers with a water reactor below, you could make a prince of persia style weapon trap that never jams.

EDIT: like this, maybe. havent tested it.
Code: [Select]
[ITEM_TOOL:ITEM_TOOL_TRACKSAW]
[NAME:tracksaw:tracksaws]
[ADJECTIVE:large, serrated]
[VALUE:50]
[METAL_MAT]
[WOOD_MAT]
[TOOL_USE:TRACK_CART]
[FURNITURE]
[TILE:15]
[SIZE:30000]
[MATERIAL_SIZE:5]
[CONTAINER_CAPACITY:0]
[ATTACK:EDGE:100000:10000:saw:saws:NO_SUB:1000]

He he he.  Yeah, it almost looks done...  alas...  those who are in your teens, hold on until your twenties...  those in your twenties, your thirties...  others, cling to life as you are able...
It should be pretty fun though.

Personally, this is a favorite arrangement of mine.
Code: [Select]
[ITEM_TOOL:ICEITEM_TOOL_SEGWAY]
[NAME:segway:segways]
[VALUE:20]
[METAL_MAT]
[WOOD_MAT]
[TOOL_USE:TRACK_CART]
[FURNITURE]
[TILE:254]
[INVERTED_TILE]
[SIZE:1600]
[HITS:10]
[MATERIAL_SIZE:3]
[CONTAINER_CAPACITY:0]
[SKILL:MELEE_COMBAT]
[ATTACK:BLUNT:10:20:mow down:mows down:segway:40000]
With any luck, the hits tag might affect it's usage in a trap, if possible. Haven't tested yet. The [SKILL:MELEE_COMBAT] does make it only train fighter instead of misc item user, though I think I might change it back.
