Here it is: Your crane simulator für Second Life!
This is now the fully functional version of the previous year-old static model, which has now been completely redesigned and its land impact significantly reduced. All parts are animated and loads can be attached to the hook and moved. A beautiful and useful addition to your construction site.
The crane's basic functions are rotating the boom, moving the trolley, and raise or lower the hook. An automatic mode is available so that the crane can move to the desired position independently. This can save a lot of time if you don't want to control it manually. Movements can be performed in the usual axial mode (steering the 3 crane axes) or linear mode (movement along global x, y, z coordinates). Axial mode is faster, but you will appreciate linear movements like a robot performs, especially in confined spaces. It is controlled using the keyboard and sitting in the cabin for FPV is possible. The option to see a beam from the hook to the ground makes operation and orientation much easier. This crane makes extremely precise controlled, repeatable movements and will enhance your gameplay for hours. There are three towers of different heights (20, 30 & 40 meters) and a few examples of loads and a template for your own stuff in the box. A very minimalist HUD displays optional the current crane data.
For the Setup, you have to rez a crane tower, move it to the desired location and copy his position. Then rez the Boom and paste the position in the edit window.
Working area: A cylinder with a radius of 35 m
Maximum hook height: 24 / 34 / 44m
Movement speed: around 2m/s
This is a beta version 0.5 and bugs are possible.
30 LI applies to the 20m tower setup.
