Hover Jeep Version 1

Hover Jeep [22 prims]

The Hover Jeep is a versatile, hi-tech, rugged, personnel transport unit. It uses powerful, antigravity pads and jet thrusters to transport you and up to 3 passengers effortlessly across the ground or through the atmosphere. You can learn to fly it in just a few seconds. It can glide along the terrain surface, and auto-hover just above the ground for a smooth ride. But you can also climb upwards and fly into the sky. The seats all have menu-driven pose adjustments to accommodate different avatar shapes.

Features include:
- Fast and easy to drive and fly
- Can carry a side passenger and 2 more in sat in the back
- Adjustable pilot seat and passenger seats
- Control lights with chat commands
- jet sounds, rear flame plume
- Public version included so anyone can pilot it
- DNA-locked version included for owner's use only

Flying the Hover Jeep.
Touch the craft or right-click the pilot seat and select "pilot". Once you're seated, wait a second or two while you listen to the powerful anti-grav engines kick in as you hover gently. Now, you can move by using the forward/backward arrow keys to adjust the speed, use the left/right turn arrow keys to steer, and use the PgUp and PgDn keys to climb and descend. Once you're moving, you'll see the thrust jet streaming from the rear as you fly. You can continue to fire the thrusters and move forward as long as you keep your finger on the forward arrow and you can even steer as you accelerate.

Hold the Ctrl key down as you use the left/right arrow keys to slide sideways. You can carry out some cool sideways-sliding moves once you've got the hang of it. You can also do an amazing "drift" when speeding across the surface.

Adjustable pilot seat
You can adjust the position of the pilot pose for whatever size avatar you use. Once you are seated, type "/1 menu" and an adjustment menu will appear, with buttons for nudging the pose up/down and forwards/backwards. Once it's adjusted for your avi, the hover jeep will remember your settings the next time you get on.

Passenger Seats
There's a seat for a passenger. The back of the jeep can also carry a couple of extra passengers. All the seats are adjustable. Once you're sat on the seat, look for the "Adjust" option in the seat menu.

Landing.
If your flying the Jeep, you can use the PageDown key to descend. Take it easy or you'll hit the floor and bounce back up. Once you have landed simply stand up and you'll hear the anti-grav engine cut out automatically. When parked, the vehicle will normally place itself into a slight hovering position just off the floor.

Parking.
If you stand up while you’re still flying, the vehicle will turn off any forward motion and lock its vertical and geostationary position. So, you can park next to a high landing platform or the top of a docking column by hopping out of your pilot's seat when you're in position. It's then safe leave the vehicle.

Security.
The vehicle is DNA-locked, a security feature that allows only the owner to fly it. You won't have any worries of someone else jumping on and flying off with it after you've parked it.

Public Version Included.
We've included a public version that permits non-owners to operate this vehicle. Your personal version has orange front lights but the public version has green ones. It behaves exactly like your personal one except anyone is permitted to fly it. The public version is set to de-rez when the pilot gets off. This is important because if you allow non-owners to operate your vehicles, they won't be able to move or delete the vehicle if it gets stuck.

These vehicles are all scaled perfectly for use with the Exosphere Modules such as the Landing Terminal, the Landing Dome and the Vehicle Bay.
