Moving interiors possible?

by Andy Hawkins · in General Discussion · 05/27/2005 (2:34 am) · 1 replies

I'm thinking about having a bit in a game where an object is loaded as an interior ( a boat ) which moves toward a jetty. The player approaches the boat in his/her zodiak (boat class) and jumps onboard - then they can run around inside.

So for this the interior has to move - is this possible to move interiors along a path or do they only work as static meshes because they are BSP's?
