Description:

This is a replica of the TX-130 Saber tank used by the Republic during the clone wars. It "hovers" over the ground by sliding on 1x1 wheel suspensions pointed directly downwards as shown in the pictures. This creates a near-frictionless surface and the tank is propelled by atmospheric thrusters hidden underneath.

USEFUL FEATURE: By pressing 1, you can toggle the brake thrusters on/off. This allows the tank to travel forward without having to hold W. It also allows you to travel comfortably as slower speeds.

The left driver's cockpit has control over the gatling guns and can turn the turret on/off, while the right gunner's cockpit can take control of the gatling turret manually.

**WARNING** Only paste this tank from your blueprints list, NEVER copy a tank that is already in the world and try to paste another. If you do copy a pre-existing tank, a crazy glitch happens. The two tanks will fly directly at each other and explode or dance around in the sky, it's hilarious and scary at the same time. This may make you want to try it out now, but at least you know how to avoid it.

*Also this will not work well in multiplayer unless you are the host (wheel bug)

Comments are welcomed, enjoy!
