I know this sounds bad, but Mevans has been asking for ideas for how to make ships and siege machines work, as they are a very difficult problem.

While I was laying in bed last night, I though of a way to inplement these two. Instead of making the siege machine an entity, where it would move around, be pushed, have health, etc., or making it a block, where it would sit somewhere and not be movable, Mevans would create a completely new type of entity, like a cross between the two. It would be kind of like an entity, but without the random movement of being pushed, but kind of like a block, as it would kind of be made up fo blocks. When you stood on this type of entity, you would accelerate to the same speed as the block you are standing on. Then you wouldn't have to be "riding" the machine, so much as just standing on it. Feel free to ask questions!
