It's probably harder to learn than mapping is but:

Well I'm slowly putting something together right now. I assume once I have it compiled and all I can just use my prop_static in place of the cart model?

I just wasn't sure if I needed to do anything incredibly different when modeling a cart.

Nope, you can just replace a payload cart with any model you want. Same for intelligence models, or CP models, or ...

No. You must use a prop_dynamic for the model to move.

Do I need to do anything special with the QC file to make it dynamic, or do I just leave out the staticprop flag?

I know nothing of modelling, but I do believe there's a dynamicprop flag or something.

According to the VDC, to compile a dynamic prop you just leave the $staticprop tag out of the QC file. But, I'm not sure about this one, so a little testing is in order
