In the water board's premises over from my office window they have been building a who-knows-what for weeks now. There's a dumper and a digger and they seem to have much more fun than me.
there are train sims and boat sims, surely there should be a digger sim? It digs and lifts and breaks and carries
and it seems like the best job in the world. It's even bloody sunny out!

This place is superfantastic! Drive all sorts of diggers all day - no age restriction! [wagster, May 09 2008]
Digging and mixing, having so much fun.

I seem to recall the Sims had a demolition animation. But yeah, good idea! |
|

Rather than just a digger, why not go all out?
Have the sim able to run everything from project design (be it a tower block, industrial construction, whatever) to planning, excavation, building, welding, cranes, plumbing and electrical, the works!
It might get more people a better understanding of the construction the see (or don't see, because of fences and stuff) all around them. |

Probably there is some digger training software available that can help us on our way. How does one become a digger driver? |
|
| |
by driving a digger... it is great fun actually though I imagine less so in the city where you have to worry about nearby buildings falling on you if you make a mistake. |
|

Well, until they release it you could always
play on [see link]. |
|
| |
With the potential for a variety of control
and selection technniques, this idea would
probably go down a storm on the Wii. |

Love it, I'd buy it.
My friend used to try to get her son to play with "smarter" toys and then found out what a crane operator makes and went and bought him a 4' tall RC sky crane. |

How much does a crane operator get paid? |
