All feasible except the Smoke Packet, Ball Connector and Lamp, since there's no way to script player components (until I find some useful hooks in the game executable).

And the game engine would probably get very angry at you for the Wheel mod.

Quote from: Madiaba
I wonder what would happen if one made a gmf object of only an 'omni' (light)?
Madiaba: ..to insert in an arena, or as a component for a bot?
Madiaba: weird..

Why bother making the cross connectors when we already have one

I would agree.. the 6 way omni one serves the purpose of all of those

You can even use a flipper segment as a few of those. In fact all of them.
