I love tanks, you too? If so, you can use my base tank track to build your own space tank. This system is light, very robust, fast (for a tank maybe) and drives like a real tank (...nearly). To build this base was not easy and needed a lot of testing. I think in the future i can optimise it more, but the problem is, if you build something around it, the mass changes and whith this everything changes, so you must fine-tune it individual.

Type: small ship - tank tracks

Features: - chain tensioner - the chain keeps in position through teeth on it - adjustable suspension - it steers relatively fast (whith button 1 and 2) - turbo (button 3) - robust - fast - light - no mods

If you want to copy/paste the tank, use the second tank with the red connectors attached, make sure these are locked and now you can copy it to any other world (don`t forget to delete all red parts ... i forgot them and wondered why the tank makes funny noises).

UPDATE: I added a second track base, which is smaller than the other. It drives well but not as good as the big one (topspeed, climbing and optic are worse). Nevertheless, it`s smaller :)

It seems, some people think this is a mod, unfortunately it`s not, damn i wish tracks were in the game or someone makes a mod for it (... hm, but then there is nothing to invent....)

Special thanks to AcrioAlarius ( http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=296941747 ) who gave me some really good tipps and ideas, he also made some pretty cool tanks (more historical correct than mine :)
