TF2 fun with SourceOP (mobile fortress) -

So I realized I never posted these pics. There were a couple of times where I built a car and then mounted sentries on top of it using SourceOP commands. Here are the pics:
This was a fun experiment.
Details:
First, I used "e_spawnprop carwhite" to make the actual car. Then attached wheels using the "e_wheel 2" command. Then made thrusters. I used "e_thruster a 30000" in the back for forward motion and likewise with a "b" and "c" group on the front sides of the car for turning. Now you have a controllable movable car.
Then, I froze the car so people would stop moving it. Then I built two sentries (one works fine, I was just having some extra fun). Move the sentries into position on top of the car using +grabent. Then, look at the car and give it a name (use something like "admin_keyvalue targetname car1"). Then, look at the sentry gun and type in the console "e_fire SetParent car1". The sentry is now parented to the car and will follow it wherever the car goes. If you want (and of course I chose to when I did this), you can give the sentry gun extra health by using the command "e_fire SetHealth 50000" while looking at it. I think that's everything.
I'm sorry to all those I owned on the red team. Thank you for participating in my experiment

You know, this would be an awesome feature for the engineer, hehe. Distract the enemy with the mobile sentry that may include in a massive killing spree while you attack the enemy from the others side.

it would be fun for awhile, but it would be to easy to rape everyone and take away balance from the game.
