ABOUT THE UBUG
The UBUG is a 2 person submersible vehicle 37Li and also included is one 4 person UBUG. The 4 person is slightly longer 39 Li and has less animations in the back seats than the front .Designed for second life underwater exploration and to be viewed in ADVANCED LIGHTING. Material textures have been used throughout and the LOD is extremely good, you can see it a whole sim away on default
it is mainly made of mesh with a couple of prims added for luck
it is MOD/COPY apart from the scripts
The engine script works really well for underwater exploration and to cruise on top of the water. It has ambient lighting, outside lighting and ambient underwater lighting all switched from the control panel working rudder and propeller and bubble trail
the five different color UBUGS including the 4 person UBUG have different channels for the lighting so they do not interfere with each other. NO lm or spam included.

To use
drag your UBUG from your inventory and rez it over water [you must have rezzing permission on the land you are on.] Right click on the body of the UBUG and from the menu choose board.
you will be seated in the driving position
you can sit in any position to drive , standing on top of the roof is quite cool to do or swim in front of your UBUG.

Controls-
STEERING

GEARS
Use the up and down arrows to changes gear there are 3 forward gears and a reverse It is not for racing more exploring top speed is around 13 miles an hour which is quite comfortable for cruising on the surface or down below

DIVING
Use page down to dive and page up to rise.
It works really well with the viewers cam and movement controls too
so you can sit back and use your mouse to control it if you want.

TO EXIT THE UBUG
Click anywhere on the hull or seat and choose one of the outside animations [stand outside] [roof stand] [float] [swim] [treadwater]
