FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

I came up with the idea of making a mod with 18-wheelers and other such trucks. That would make moving so much easier! Pickup trucks could give you about 4 chests worth of storage, and the trailer of an 18-wheeler could give you 20 chests worth of storage. (Maybe 15 would be better?) Of course, to drive the 18-wheeler, you might need to ask sorcerykid, the road builder, to remove street lights on certain corners of road. You could craft the pickup truck, and the 18-wheeler cab, but NOT the trailer. We don't need all the roads clogged with noobs who don't know how to drive those big rigs. ;) On servers, the admin could give certain players who know how to drive those machines the trailers. Or better yet, the mod would require that you have a bigrig priv to place a trailer. That might be better than just giving it to people. You don't want to get killed by a pro and then have a noob take your trailer and clog the roads.

Git repo for it:

You could steal the code from the vehicle mod, and maybe I can get NathanS to make the blender stuff. :D

I know. Eventually I want to change my youtube name to BBmine, but I don't know how :P

I believe you have to have over a certain number of subscribers to be able to change the name.

This is getting OT but to check if you can change your channel name go to your dashboard/channel/advanced That page has the option to change the channel name if it is available. :)

I didn't see it, but I did see that I can't get a custom URL until I have at least 100 subscribers and have channel art. I tried channel art once, but it wouldn't work :(
