Yeah.. For some reason which I'm sure is perfectly reasonable if you know the game's mechanics, vehicles can't have more than 30 prims and still be flyable.

Actually, its 31 prims for a physical object (which vehicals are), minus 1 prim per avatar that will be riding it. So 31 Prims - 1 Avatar = 30 prims, 31 Prims - 4 Avatars = 27 Prims, et cetra.

The maximum number of prims you can have in a physical object, or scripted vehicle, is 31 as mentioned. Note it's 31 to initialize physics or prim linking - I believe you can pile on more avatars beyond the 31 limit after it's set to physical.

As for the maximum number of prims in a Link Set, that's 256. The number of scripts in that link set doesn't matter to anything more than sim performance.

Really bummed that I now learn that all vehicles can only have 30 prims...yuck that's light.

So what now? Push the bike along the ground with position changes?
I'm having trouble finding such scripts...I have one for a sliding door I'll work on until I hear any more ideas.

I could use some good news after spending all afternoon on the bike that I can't use now...grumble grumble

FFS stop using multimove for moving ONE object. That's not what I made it for

Use Nonphy instead, thanks.
