Crazy CDDA Moment

    < \Test_User> can you drive over it bc it's short enough
    < NetSysFire> you are allowed to savescum this once

So with this egging going on

Bridges are a tricky thing to wire up aright, so sometimes you'll see "bridges to nowhere" in Cataclysm: Daring Driving Ahead, as in real life...presumably the procgen has less pork. As it turns out you can drive over the gap if you don't mind some damage to the vehicle. I suck at driving and managed to hit one more set of guard rails than was necessary; good thing I don't know how to drive in real life?

    < az-ssh> How does that work, btw?  Assuming that as long as the gap
              is shorter than the distance between the wheels.. and your
              CoG doesn't tip?
    < BrainDamage> iirc plummeting in water happens when 3/4 of the
                   wheels are over water
    < az-ssh> So a bus could bridge a massive gap?
    < BrainDamage> you can also just add a long line of frames to a
                   vehicle, with tiny casters at the end
    < BrainDamage> mmm, this gives me ideas
    < NetSysFire> oh no

For context, the map has a mess of bridges that do not form the true bridge nature which involves the ramps.
