Well, it seems to still work here. You need to add this tag inside the
<entry> tag in the scenario file.
<submodels>
<serviceable type="bool">true</serviceable>
<path>Models/Geometry/Ferry/ferry-submodels1.xml</path>
</submodels>
where <path> encloses the path to the submodel file
Sounds as if you are doing something quite interesting with submodels.
However, I don't think you will always get "hits" on all scenery items: only
horizontal surfaces are usually solid, IIRC.
