    currently have all the way up to the bottom arm section built, the jbeam needs to be tuned so ill do that tomorrow. I also have a counter weight that will be adjustable.

    Like a little claw?
    --- Post updated ---
    I want to make it an attachment to a flatbed trailer. But mixing the jbeams, might be hard. (Specifically lua stuff)

    I have an idea regarding that.
    Using a container attachment system to tie down a container trailer would allow it to be loaded onto a trailer while still being treated as a separate piece of equipment.

    Dude that's genuinely genius, plus it keeps it from sliding around. You would have to manually attach it each time but it's better than hard coding it into a trailer. Unless I can make it a load and a vehicle. I need to look into the code for those attachment points and see how far above my skill level it is.

    Reminds me with one of those old 2014 BeamNG Mod showcases, very cool. Fits with the T-Series or an Excavator itself

    Right after posting this I scaled up the claw so it can grab the roamer. I just need to work on tuning the jbeam so its less.... bad. Taking a few day break like always but ill tune it then release a version for everyone to enjoy.
