I would say we could have one of this near future so why not having in OT?




I like the design so simple and futuristic...




What could disperse vehicle to take of from nearly all ground surfaces lyes on its design. Just need to find or invent one from somerwhere...

I Like this design as a "sporty Recreation vehicle" but it wont do much for the heavy lifting needs of a colonist.
There is one other thing that bothers me.... the configuration implys that it must be without thrust during transition from ground to flight & visa versa ... which makes it an expensive glider!.
Maybe there's another wheel somewhere that supports the rear during take off.... would that not negate the point of the fancy folding wheel/prop.

Airships, airships and AIRSHIPS!! Still the ideal form of transport in OT. Balloon airships. Not fictional solid steel flying space fortresses.

Think of the view from one of those slowly flying across the mountains.

Yeah but can you imagine how long it would take to get anywhere with the size of the Earth?   :P

That is the beauty of OT and more specifically the way the alpha game will work. You will be able to send AI to do long long.. ridiculously long tasks like (building 200 mile roads, clearing trees, gathering resources, erecting building) and at any point jump in and out of them to get that hands on experience or just be the creepy overlord in your concrete tower sending random AI to their deaths like the boring RTS strategist you are.

Heh, old Skoda couldn't have survived it :)

Given that we want/need earth to almost return to its natural state, only something that was very well conserved could survive. There may be vehicles in underground military bunkers, though you'd probably have to make new tires for them.

Saladin vehicle from Kulhanek's The Path of Blood comes to my mind here :)

And replace all the engine and axle seals. And replace the hoses.. And all the fluids will need to be re-synthesized. And the fuel has probably spoiled. And the battery will be flat. Also an air-freshener is probably needed.

Found this.. I think it needs a good looking into for long haul trucking at the speed of sound.
