Electric Outboard Motor Version 1.0

This project features an electric outboard motor for small dinghies without motor, etc. The land impact is 2.

The motor is 'fixed' which works pretty well for the above purpose (since small sailboats already got a rudder and just need the propulsion for the calm), but of course not for inflatables etc. - the motor housing does not swing on steering (since the project is full perms except for the demo, you may try to add a reasonable rotation of all relevant motor parts yourself).

The motor features gears (3 forward, neutral, reverse), sound and propeller rotation.

In this package you find 2 models:

- The motor itself, at full permissions (all necessary scripts are included in root and/ or childs)
- a working demo, attached to a simple boat, copy-mod only (the boat model itself is not mine, I must not give it away at full perms)

you will also find a script (motor r5 , vehicle type: boat) ) which is meant for the above purpose, i.e. for example a sailboat which allows steering, but has no motor propulsion.

Installation:

This depends if you add this engine in the building phase to an own construction, or if you want to add it to a given build.
If you want to add it to a given boat (it must be mod!), then you cannot simply link it, since (and this is an old flaw which was never resolved by the Lab) any new link destroys the given necessary order and numbering of linksets. Most likely it will no longer work afterwards.
You NEED (!!) a relink script, for example Nikki's ReLink on the marketplace, 349L$. That works pretty excellent, it keeps the necessary order of link numbers and adds easily new items to a given vehicle. (I use it myself for any add-ons to my BANDIT boats).

Important Note: A relink tool script is NOT included here, you may find one on the marketplace( see above).

Copyright notes:

You may
- use the motor in any configuration in own boats
- modify or reuse the scripts
- sell the motor and scripts as a part of own builds, either copy, or transfer, never both

You must not
- give the motor as a whole or in parts away, especially not at full permissions.
