Already planned :D I asked Sjomp to send me the map files soon. So i can put them into their own filterscript and make em move!

Phases,

At the start point the phase will be OBJECT_PHASE_LAND. Taking off from land it will be OBJECT_PHASE_TAKEOFF. On the way there it will be OBJECT_PHASE_MOVING. Landing it will be OBJECT_PHASE_LANDED. Then OBJECT_PHASE_MOUNTAIN or i could reuse the first phase. If its at any _LANDING phases it'll simply move downloads, no jerkyness involved (kind of how the tolls work, that kind of transition)

All the above combined will let the script know its ok to move it to X if its at a specific phase. Kind of how the ferry works, except slightly more complex (each balloon will be moved individually and follow its own flight path along a route (1 will go via Whetstone etc))
