Add "pin" button for Cars and Tanks

Post by sarge945 »

Space Platforms have a "pin" button in their title bar, next to the close button.

This button should be added to Cars and Tanks as well, as they are commonly pinned, and the Alt-Rightclick shortcut isn't really documented anywhere outside of the keyboard controls.

This is just a minor QoL change.

Crazy that this works. Thanks!


The fact that the functionality is already in the game but there is no UI for this is wild to me. (in kind of a good way, because adding a button doesn't seem like a big deal)
