Platypus Typ 707 v1.5 update

Hi there,
in this article we will cover the 2019 update for our Platypus Typ 707.

First, the biggest change of them all - our "Real Scale" initiative has made its way in, so now Platypus is tiny and adorable, as it should be. However, for this time we will be providing a so called "Legacy" version, which is the size Platypus used to be. It's also updated to v1.5 code.

Now, let's run through the other changes of v1.5:
- built-in GTFO! support for every v1.5+ version(Legacy, real scale, mod), with support for custom cargos in modifable version(see updated manual);
- adjustable steering;
- redone animations for the real scale version;
- enforced avatar's positions(hopefully no avatar riding outside the vehicle after poor crossing);
- updated tablet navigation(rotating map and proper voice cut-offs);
- "Major Repair" option is available at all times(like on LM Scout and Ajax);
- all customization has been moved to menus(once again like on recent Lusch Motors products or GEMC Origin);
- Animesh charger support(we didnt have to update a single thing to make it work with both sizes of the vehicle, aint that a magic!);
- a number of other minor changes such as redone eject code and so on.
- you can upgrade your Platypus(Real Scale version only) to a modifable version for a mere L$500(vendor included in the package). It's not really a money maker, but more of a paywall to make people think twice whether they want to get into all those mod shennanigans or not. We don't want to bestow a modifable version on someone who has no idea what to do with it, so they damage it, and somehow make it our problem.

QOL fix for the animesh charger(in case you missed it in the group)

1) Make a new script inside your animesh charger.
2) Replace the default code in that script with the following:

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
       llSetLinkPrimitiveParamsFast(2, [
       PRIM_POSITION, <-2.80690, -0.00900, 0.00030>,
       PRIM_ROTATION, llEuler2Rot(<0.00000, 90.00000, 0.00000>*DEG_TO_RAD)/llGetRootRotation(),
       PRIM_SIZE, <0.47807, 0.42478, 2.97735>,
       PRIM_SLICE, <0.94, 1.0, 0>]);
     llRemoveInventory(llGetScriptName());
    }
}

3) Save the code.
4) ????????
5) PROFIT!

Or visit a redelivery terminal and get your charger package redelivered(there's no version change, so it doesn't get delivered automatically).
