This video shows how to create simple cars in Second Life. I will take you step by step as a car is built. A script will be added to the car. This script is shown below. In this video I show how to set the root prim, create proper wheels and finally, add the script to the car.
Helicopters and other flying vehicles are very popular in Second Life. This recipe shows how to create a helicopter. The helicopter is capable of carrying up to four avatars at once. The helicopter is flown very similarly to how an avatar is flown.

The boat shares some characteristics with the car. However, there are some important differences.
Boats are also very popular in Second Life. The boat is designed to work with sea water. That is, the built-in water that is at a specific height, usually 20 meters. Sea areas can usually be found by examining the map. Or look for a “water sandbox” on the search. Sandboxes are public areas that allow anyone to build there. The boat shares some characteristics with the car. However, there are some important differences.
The example car for this recipe is a bright-red two seater convertible. The car is not a true convertible, in that it does not convert. It is always in top-down mode. Because it never rains in Second Life, this is not a problem! The little red sports car is shown in Figure 5.2.
