Forklift truck
I decided to make a VR forklift truck simulator. I have years of experience as a FLT Instructor and decided that I am ideal experienced to make a VR sim capable of training people on the core basic training principles of FLT driving.
This is the starting truck. I based it on a selection of my favourite counterbalance designs that I have driven over the years. The chassis is based on Jungheinrich trucks from the late 90s. The Controls and mast are Linde inspired.
If I ever get this game launched, I will add other trucks. Other trucks that I would add are the Reach, TSP, LLOP, HLOP and PPT.

As part of the training sim, I wanted to simulate a full pre-use check. This would include checking the battery for faults. To fulfil this requirement, I included a fully articulated battery lid and lead cell battery with water feed lines.
I created this version with concealed tilt Hydraulics. I personally Prefer the beefier hydraulics on top of the cab, but I realised that this is quite unusual and specific to Linde trucks.
