new home for whales

I already made once space whale that been unfortunatly broken by the last major physics udate. This is a completely new take on the whole idea, that is quite simple; a humback whale wandering around a small space station, inhabited by a whalewatcher.
I'd like to point out, that the whale is NOT a ship! It has no cockpit, no cargo, no connectors and no real purpose.

FEATURES (although I'd rather not spoil everything until you see it. But since I can't make a video, here you go!):


- Fully articulated body, utilizing drag to generate foward movement (around 2m/s). Hence the whale is actually swimming without any forward thrust.
- eyes that will register and follow anyone who is approaching.
- a small base, maybe the first I ever build. As building weird things in creative mode is the only thing I do.


INSTRUCTIONS:

This is a creative mode world!

the humback whale is a wild creature
and therefor cannot be tamed!

GET ON its BACK (you can find a button panel above its shoulder area on the back) to communicate with it!


PRESS (1) to ask him to stay for a while (the current animation cycle will be finished)
PRESS (1) again to let him be on his way


the whale will circle around the station
PRESS (2) while it is in motion (the whale will leave orbit in a straight line to find a new home)
to release it of its bond


making EYE contact may help!
