NEW UPDATE!

Consul Pust Fishing Trawler
Historical recreation by Moo Spyker

Version 1.1 Updates:
- Prim counts are cut DRASTICALLY while driving now. Certain physics shapes turn off while your anchors are up. It's now 315 prims while driving vs 497!
- Every script is now script profiled. Brought the script memory usage from from 3000 kb to 702 kb!!! Makes sim crossing all that easier.
- Replaced the entire main body with a new mesh to fix the physics shape causing you to "float" over the deck.
- Removed and cleaned up some unnecessary scripts.
- Added "Fixed" camera angle button. The camera will now stay where it currently is and you can keep controlling the boat!
- Added "Group" in the privacy menu
- Added "Moo's Universal Gestures"
Wear the gestures and the controls are as follows:
- F5 or F6 - Play bell sound
- F7 - Lights on
- F8 - Lights off
- F9 - Default camera
- F10 - Driving camera
- F11 - Fixed camera
- F12 - High Angle camera
- Shift + F5 - Anchor menu
- Shift + F6 - Sail menu
- Shift + F7 - Load menu
- Set realistic "Density" setting. Hard for others to push the boat around now.
- New poseball security. Seated unauthorized AV's will be throw over board, same if they attempt to sit.

Please IM me "Moo Spyker" for any bugs that you find so I know what needs fixing! Thanks

This is a German fishing trawler from the 1920's. It is steam powered and was used to drag nets out behind the ship to catch fish. Not much info is around on this ship. A company makes a paper model kit for this ship as well as a site offers a 3 page blueprint set, which is what I used to make this. Searching around on a German forum I found this bit of translated data on the ship kinda hard to make out but here it is:
"The original the sheet gives the following data: The Consul blows 1919 on the Lauenburger Hitzler throwing for the rust ochers deep-sea fishing AG was built. Is from 1920 to 1925 the Consul blow from Rostock on fishing gone. In the year 1932 the ship was sold after Lorient, and drove from now on as „ Monique Andree “. In the Second World War the ship was used at the French and British navy as auxiliary sweeper. After return at France the ship was used still until 1957 for fishing and thereafter broken off."

- Very realistic "Moo's Real Boat" scripts
- Single linkset so it crosses sims with ease!
- Notecard driven you can adjust EVERY value for the motion
- Lots of moving parts (guages, wheel, rudder, prop, throttle)
- Realistic sound effects
- Whislte and Bell sound effects
- Navagation lights (on and off)
- Sails turn on and off
- Seats 8 (can easily add or copy more seats)

Lights On - turns lights on
Light Off - turns lights off
Sail - For visual effects only
Open Sails - opens both sails up

Raise R/L Anchor - Anchor will return to the ship, if they are both up the ship will go back to being physical

Camera Menu
Various camera angles. It seems the camera code LSL uses is fairly buggy and sometimes the camera will act weird. Make sure to adjust your zoom level.

Driving
1. HOLD down C or PAGE DOWN until the engine starts (takes a few seconds it an old engine)
2. Once running use the aarow or WASD keys to controls
3. There are 3 speeds forward and 1 in reverse. You can see the current speed in mouselook on the throttle stick.

When I saw the anchors drop, I knew the scripting on this boat matched the extreme detail and precision used in building it! Everything about this boat is simply amazing! I was anxious to drive it and when I did, I cant say enough about how smoothly it crossed sim lines, how true-to-life the physics were, and how good it looks out on the horizon at night with all the lights on... Cant wait to see the next one! Thanks for such a great build!
