MemberPraetorianJun-25-2017 3:47 PMTY for sharing!! That was really cool!! It's even kinda cute for a prototype, but the swimming/propulsive motions I noticed is very smooth, they did a good piece of work with it.
Gives me some great ideas :D

MemberPraetorianJun-25-2017 4:53 PM'Down the road' might be 'just around the bend' given how fast tech develops. The higher a tech level of a civilization becomes, the faster it achieves new developments and progress.
But for right now, it gives me some great ideas and nicely helps me solve some issues with some literary creations of mine. :)
TY again for posting this!
