Umm...anyone think of building a podracer yet? And like use the gravity gun to steer it? All you'd have to do is hook those canisters to ropes, then the ropes to something with wheels...

the map included is not that large. also you tend to fall off of custom built vehicles very easily unless you build an enclosure on top of it.
I tried it with canisters and a cart, built to look like a pod racer. I took the cart out of the wheels section, and added car tires to it. Then I spawned 2 9000 Tanks, and shot a rope between the tow, then from each tank to the cart. And when I hit use...it doesnt exactly move like a podracer...the tanks take off kinda spiriling around each other, while the cart flops around behind it like dead weight...more experimentation is needed lol...
Podracer baby...woohoo...can't get in and fire it...but when activated, it goes straight...until it hits a wall...
these are pictures of it after its first test run...a few ropes are caught on the ramp on the wall closest to the pool, which is why it looks a little fecked...
Hours of endless fun . I was literally playing this for 3 hours, and the only reason I stopped is because my sound went out. What's great fun is making long snakes of thrusters (just attach the to the nozzle of previous and keep going). I also had some fun trying to turn the hoverboat into an airplane using thrusters.. it's near impossible!
Another fun thing to try is sticking a thruster to the back of the tub and try staying on the damn thing until it reaches the end of the map.
Hmm, I wonder if it's possible to play this mod online? Perhaps someone could make a drag race strip
OH GOD, I had to reinstall HL2 just to play with this, and it is AWESOME.
I built a flying machine from the swamp boat, that you can actually pilot (figured out the perfect number of balloons and perfect placement... throttle causes lift, and when you let off the throttle, you are let back down ).
My brother attached a bunch of saw blades to the walls of the room where the vehicles start out. He took the vehicles out, and spawned a bunch of citizens ("npc_create npc_citizen") in the room. Then he placed a camera in the room, closed off the room with a few large objects, and let all of the saw blades go (ungrouped them from the wall, so they went flying all over the place in the room). What a sadistic little bastard, but it was funny as hell.
I designed my own sort of weapon. I spawned citizens all over the map in preparation. Then I spawned the largest platform, and attached the largest thrusters to every corner (each pointing 90 degrees from the previous corner, to make the platform spin like a top). Then I grabbed the spinning platform with the physics gun and used it like a saw blade to cut down all of the citizens.
Man, you can do some cool stuff with this. My little brother and I were having loads of fun over the LAN.

5 steps to laughter in Half-Life 2 (You can do this in HL2, HL2:DM, and Garry's Mod)
1. Create any npc using "npc_create npc_(npc name)"
2. Put crosshairs on npc you just created and in console type "ent_setname 1"
3. In console, type "ent_fire 1 setexpressionoverride (something from list below)"
4. Watch the npc you created
5. Laugh
You can do this with any human npc, including combine.
Edit: Here are all the scenes available by character.

anyway here are some of my simple things.
first: just put some big tires on the air boat.
second: tied ragdoll heads to he carosel. put massive thrust tanks on to make it spin. didnt work as well as i hoped.
always good for taking flight. goes up slowly and using the gas lets you go down easy enough.
