I do use submodels, John, but I don't necessarily inline often. I build the
part by itself, (place it either in Models if it's made up of parts or Parts if
it was built with lines, quadrilateral and other primatives.), and add it onto
the main model by filename. That is why my custom torsos came out so well and
can be changed to any color or combination color. This way, everyone from
policemen to cosmonauts can have a little bit of originality. Moreover, the
business suit from the 1996 Air Show sucked. My execs and workers can have the
option of wearing different colored shirts and ties. Now I've completed a
computer tile like the M:Tron 1x2 tile with a custom color arrangement and am
working on a torso for my town/space hero team. It is Explorien-inspired.
So when I do download, I have to provide the main model along with code for
parts and submodels seperately in the document.

P.S.: Have you got the Walk/Don't Walk lights completely mounted yet? If not,
let me know what's wrong and I'll resolve the problem, esp. if someone has a
vehicle taller than 11 blocks.
