Default Simply Fun Modding

This is just a topic for listing some fun modding techniques which anyone couldn't find a use for, but of course someone else might...

Here's one I tried lately, give a vehicle, tank for instance, a garrison module, such as this...

Code:
Behavior = GarrisonContain Module_Fun
    ContainMax          = 1
    MobileGarrison = yes
End
also make sure the vehicle has the right commandset for one passenger (e.g. either show the one passenger position or provide an exit all button).

Next, place this modified vehicle on a map, owned by the civilian team of course.

result is a civilian vehicle you can hop in, control and hop out of, but with a few odd bugs such as...

Passenger shoots out
Passenger bails vehicle when damaged to red
Vehicle not regarrisonable after damaged to red

additionally, adding the 'IsEnclosingContainer = No' tag to the garrison module has interesting results, by default the driver's torso pokes out of the middle of the vehicle, and he is targetable with this tag, kill the driver and the vehicle returns to civilian.

Thing is, I have found no use for this interesting fun code...

Anyone else got something to share? Keep in mind as apposed to the sticky topic for sharing code this is concentrating on interesting little experiments that the coder hasn't really found a use for...
