You can still easily add these Adventure Map objects into your map editor. Map with this objects will work correctly even for players without these objects enabled. For SoD simply put [https://1drv.ms/t/s!Ahfxr6a8tP2F8UAIz1dJn8kpaUvu?e=nb17dJ this Objects.txt] in your "data" directory or insert it in H3Bitmap.lod using Grayface's MMArchive. For HotA (1.6.1 and prior only, this will crash your editor on 1.7.0 and above) put [https://1drv.ms/t/s!Ahfxr6a8tP2F8T-ovsiTbjpD42nj?e=lYEXZM this EdObjts.txt] in your "data" directory or insert it in HotA.lod using Grayface's MMArchive. All unused objects can be found under "Towns" category.

The original concept for the airship was to have it tied to the Factory. Ultimately the decision was made to have airship yards only as map objects instead, cf. point #14 of [http://heroescommunity.com/viewthread.php3?TID=39830&PID=1579750#focus this interview].
