BoxMatchRollers released! [BETA][PICS]

Name: BoxMatchRollers
Version: first official beta - no version number
Compatibility: 3270
Description: This is a fun modification for UT2k4 plugged together within a couple of days. I hope it will be fun for you folks too!
The BoxMatchRollers are crates/boxes with wheels and a mounted double MG. Players sit inside and drive around in DM, TDM and VCTF game modes.
Comments: The BoxMatchRollers are able to strafe 90 degrees to the left and right if the driver just presses the strafe left/right keys without pressing the forward/backward keys.
You can pump up your wheels by hitting the Jump key. Once the wheels are pumped up you drive around much faster. Hit the Jump key again to flatten the wheels.
The wheels react on damage if shot at. They will loose 'air' while taking damage. You have simple HUD indicators that show the wheels current damage level.
The BoxMatchRoller can pickup health packs by driving over them. This will repair your wheels if damaged and will repair your BoxMatchRoller too of course. You need to pickup some packs to get your wheels in good shape again.
In the BoxMatchRollersVCTF game mode you capture and return the flags by simply running over them with your BoxMatchRoller.
Holding the Duck key will charge up your jump boosters. Once you release the Duck key your BoxMatchRoller will be kicked into the air.
Pressing AltFire will switch between an outside and an inside view. While in inside view you look out of the BoxMatchRoller thru a peep hole.
You can only fire your MGs using the Fire button while the peep hole is open.

This kind of stuff is exactly what makes the UT-series the best ever as far as wacky mods are concerned.

Just one question : bot-support ???

It all began with slimshaggy saying 'Why not make the players look like crates and boxes and let them run around in a wharehouse full of other crates and boxes to hide between?'
Then the crate/box players got crate/box vehicles and then I added stuff that came to mind while writing the codes.
So, the original idea is not the thing it is now, but it got everything started.

I beg your pardon?
Can someone, or lyricaltorrid himself, maybe translate what this statement should mean? Thanks.
