In Garry's Mod, is there any way to stand on a moving object?

Question

I've been struggling to create contraptions in Garry's Mod lately simply because I have tendency to want to be moving around on a flying vehicle that is also moving around. Try as I may I can never get this to work, as I often end up falling through the base of the flying vehicle, get killed by the objects on the vehicle, or simply come off the edge.

Is there any way to avoid this? Just to be able to stand still would be great for everything from trains to space stations to aircraft!

If it can't be done in vanilla GMod, I'd be happy to take addon suggestions, or ideas for a lua script if none exist.

Answer

Actually standing on a moving object doesn't really work because Source isn't suitable for it. There are a number of things you can try. You can try spawning a seat, welding it to the vehicle and use it, for example. Alternatively, you can use this Player Weld STOOL to weld yourself to it, causing you to move along with it.
