Well i had two idea to make boats. I know its possible to create objects that only vechiles can go through but is it possible to make one wich only humans can go through. This would make it possible to have a boat that had the physics of the gost and just put a glass/invisible plane that the boast kind of sat on wich only humans can go through so you have it deep water and create an object with the campfires properties near the bottum so people die if they stay in the water to long.

Another idea is i noticed that on bloodisland one of the tower walls is to thin so sometimes u can shoot people through it. So in theory you could make a really thin plane that people can shoot and fall through then put a plasma sheild underneath it. Just a plane the sam size as the plasma sheil so u nade or shoot i with a plasma gun and you fall through.

If only the human could go through, then it might work. However, a wartho would be able to drive over it too, and that would be kinda dumb.

Ye if you could make it so it depended on the vechiles weight then put the boats weight to like 1 gram.
Edit: if you made a kind of breakable material that broke under a certain amount of weight and then have a splashing sound play when it breaks. The material must be able to respawn though.

I was just thinking, If you could get a transparent material that broke if a certain amount of preesure(such as weight) was put onto it it broke with an animation of water flying up and put alot of squares of this material and put the weight of the boat really low. If the mc's weigh was higher than the boats then it would make a great mod. You would put the squares of material just under the surface of the water so it looks right and if you wanted a whole fleet then you would use lots of layer of the matterial supporting different weights soa bigger ship has slightly more weigh(stil not as much as MC) so it sinks into the water lower. The collision model of the boats would have to have a flat bottum so the boats didnt tilt excesivly. My only concern is when a boat capsises could you make its weight suddenly increase?
