Salem upgrade mod

I would really appreciate it if someone could make me a mod to beef up the Salem (the flying broom vehicle) with the following specs:

- 2x flight speed
- 2x elevation change speed
- indestructible
- add the laser from the VTOL (if possible)

Thank you! :D
 
OK I got the flight speed and elevation change speed working. But I cannot seem to be able to add the vtol laser to it.

I added the following into the "bike_broomstick01_veh" file:
Code: 
<Weapon_Links>
<Weapon_Link>
<Seat>Driver</Seat>
<Weapon>sp_vtol01_w</Weapon>
</Weapon_Link>
</Weapon_Links>
Which is pretty much copied verbatim out of the vtol's veh file (with the passenger seat portion deleted because the broomstick doesn't have a passenger seat)
But the game crashes at the title screen when that code is in the "bike_broomstick01_veh" file.

Does anyone know what I need to add to the "bike_broomstick01_veh" file to make the vtol weapons work on it?
 
The mesh itself likely needs a weapon attach point, (which the Salem doesn't have.) No one has ever been able to successfully add a weapon to a vehicle that didn't have one in the first place in either SR2 or SRTT.
 
Well that sucks... on a semi-related note, do you think it would be possible to enable being able to shoot a gun or throw a grenade while on it?

It was possible in SR2. I enabled it for passengers riding in the Oppressor and the Gyro Daddy. I'm not sure about SRTT, but it's probably setup the same way. I really haven't even looked at any of the vehicle stuff tbh, so maybe another modder could give you a hand.

EDIT:
Before you ask, it was three years ago. I can barely remember what I had for lunch today, let alone how mods I wrote work from back then. :P
 
Looking at the old SR2 mod, there are 3 files involved that might give you a clue how to proceed with yours:
the vehicle's _veh.xtbl file
vehicle_interactions_info.xtbl
vi_ride.xtbl

I honestly cannot remember what the hell I did to make it work though.
