Basically, those kind of travel powers would need to be limited to certain areas which would not make them as useful as other "Normal" Travel Powers. Obviously a Batmobile type of thing could go anywhere as it transforms to its environment, but then that in it's self would require heaps of coding and such.

Craftable or C-Store items for Urban Vehicles strictly for use in MC might be something to consider...and again, it depends on the type of vehicle.

Snowmobiles...great in Canada...but lame in the desert or MC.

Some flying vehicles could go anywhere, but a helicopter would look really dumb under water, for example.
I've seen the argument of "But how it would it look in Lemuria" before, and my answer is always the same: It would look the same as any other travel power in Lemuira; non existent.

They did actually say back in the day near release that they were working on ideas for this and had something in mind like a Motorcycle or some such for heroes to get around on.. though it seem that and thier other stated in the works like Growth/Shrinking and Shapeshifting have all gone out of the window and the way of the dodo in the light of instea utilising diminishing resources to do as much damage control as possible.

Hopefully they will start making better decisions that start appealing to folks again and we can get the game back on track developmentally so that we can actually get some of these things we all WANT in our lifetimes.. hopefully.

Aye, ya raise a good point, but I still think Snowmobiles in the city or streetbikes in Canada would be weak tea. Just me, but I can be a stickler for that type of detail.

Other issue is what happens inside? A lot of the maps have hallways that wouldn't support much more then a motorcycle or something of that size.

That's why hover vehicles are the way to go. They don't rely on the ground to get around so they could be anywhere, just ask viper, all their vehicles hover.

The vehicles would scale, just like weapons do and the hover disc does.

on that note I lost my trian of thought so I'll say I want my hover bike and flying horse. That would satisfy at least 3 of my toons that are forced to have some travel power that they would never have. Sigh.
