Stratosphere Cruiser 3000

The Stratosphere Cruiser 3000 blasts you off in safety and comfort! The Cruiser will entertain you for hours as you target it, change its power and even customize it. If you want you can leave it on you land; it is sure to be a major attraction for your guests.

Riding the rocket is simple -- just right-click and "Launch!".

The Stratosphere features the very latest in composite metal technology, large-scale integrated circuit design and flies on environmentally-friendly fuel. It is safe... really...

To try the Cruiser, click here to visit the Galactic Explorer's League.

Features:

  • Super easy to set up and use: just put it where you want it, then right-click and "Launch!". Off you or your guest goes!

  • The rocket is fully modifiable (except for the script), and copyable. That means unlimited flights.

  • After launch, a new rocket will materialize to take its place with the same position, orientation, and rocket motor power. This means you can create exactly repeatable experiences! You have nothing to set up -- no launchpads, or messing with scripts.

  • Automatically provides the rider with a landmark (if you put one in the rocket's inventory) to make returning to base easy -- not necessary for vertical flights, but nice for traveling a distance.

  • Easily changed rocket motor power (just changed the rocket's description to a new number, e.g. 15000) -- have fun with experimenting.

  • The current rocket body can support flights up about 840 meters, however you can lighten it for much higher flights (requires you to modify the rocket prims).

  • Blasts off with great particle and sound effects.

  • You can aim it at buildings or other prims (not terrain), and create a human ping-pong game, or go straight up for fun!

  • I put sights to see in the flight path of my rocket, just to make it interesting. If you try it, I'm sure you will agree that it is the best ride in SL (ok, at least I think so lol).

Instructions

Warning: while vertical flight is almost always safe, riding this rocket at an angle should be done with some caution -- while it is a fun way to get between sims, if too much force is used you might find yourself flying into the terrain (with some unfun consequences due to SL's old physics). For vertical flights, any power is ok, but for non-vertical flights I suggest you start off at about 8000 and work up slowly from there.

  • To change the power of the rocket, simply right-click and "Edit" the rocket. Change its description from "0" to whatever number you want -- "15000" is a good place to start.
  • Using the rocket is very simple for you or your guests, just right-click and launch.
  • Drop a landmark in the rocket's inventory -- this will allow the rider to return to wherever you want after the ride.
