this is the first of what I would call a true hovercraft, (well first that I have seen anyhow) It uses a water jet to inflate a "cushion" underneath it and this then lifts the whole machine into the air, it is my no means perfect and in an ideal world I would have designed water thrusters to move it from side to side as well but i found this was too laggy. Currently it doesnt handle rough terrain very well but i think this is more due to my (slightly crappy) execution than the actual concept.

As it stands movement is controlled by a geometery controller controlled by WASD.

To toggle hover on and off use the UP arrow (there is a slight delay).

Im sorry for any lag, There is a fair bit of water but it should all kill itself so once it is up and running any lag should not get any worse.

Thankyou for reading my rather long description, I hope you enjoy my machine, feel free to modify or improve upon it, I think it has some real potential.

Please comment and rate.
