[Resolved] Big vehicle image help

Edit: Topic Resolved

How do i make a vehicle like the airship consist of several tiles that moves all at once, or a way to make the airship a really big image. Cause im using a large airship picture, and if i scale it down, its gonna look puny, so instead of a small airship like the default one, i wanna use one thats bigger.

I'd love any help.
 
There's a few ways to try this.

First, you could tile the airship and keep it still, while having a moving panorama behind it that indicates it's moving.

You can also make a bunch of events and control them with "Set Move Route", but that might be a bit laggy.

Or you can turn the airship into a picture and move it with "Move Picture". But you'll also have to turn the player and other characters on the ship into pictures, otherwise they won't show.

There are probably a few other ways to do this, but these are just some simples ones I thought of. Good luck with it :thumb:

Thanks, but im kinda want to be able to have it just like an airship only bigger, so that the player can move at will. But the moving panorama idea seems like a good idea!
