acknowledgement
Big thanks to 454ss for hosting this challenge, first time entering a stormworks build challenge and first time seeing a build through to where I think it's decent enough to upload on the workshop. Had a blast and learnt a lot especially with lua coding.
Please don't reupload without permission, thanks.
