SimplePlanes Update 1.6 - Breaking Wind

Dev AndrewGarrison  7.4 years ago

We've been quietly working on a new update for SimplePlanes and we just released it today. Here's a trailer showing the new features:

Trailer Thumbnail

New Parts

  • Gyroscope - Keep your designs upright and build quadcopters
  • Sphere - Super advanced ball technology
  • Hemisphere - Half a sphere, for when you can't afford a whole new sphere

Features

  • Wind Physics
  • Wind Settings to control the wind in real-time
  • Windsocks
  • New Challenge - Cross Wind Landing
  • New Stock "Airplane" - Quadcopter
  • Tweaked the instrument panel user interface to improve the compass and add a wind heading indicator
  • XML-modding enhancements

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed bug preventing discovery of Featherfall Squall
  • Fixed a bug that prevented Mirage Speedway from showing up (or was that a joke that I didn't get?)
  • Prevent Restart Here from working on challenges
  • Prevent AI planes from responding to player activation groups
  • Fixed a bug with drag on initially disconnected parts
  • Fixed a bug with tournament validation of part scale="1,1,1"

Thanks for playing!

Note: The update should be available on all platforms right now, except Amazon and Amazon Underground. It should go live on Amazon tomorrow morning, but we are pulling SimplePlanes from Amazon Underground since Amazon is shutting Underground down.

    Multiplayer would be cool, but it would also be nice if we could change the shape of the engine.

    you Guys should add advanced Autopilot instead of just "Wing leveling mode" Something like "follow" mode that follows whatever plane is targeted.

    @AndrewGarrison is it possible for the 1.7 update there would be some sort of T.O.W Missle for Artillery. I made a M270 MLRS and it uses large pylons and xml modded air to gound missles and there size 2,2,2.5 and they only lock onto the destroyers, USS Beast and USS Tiny. In future updates will there be a way to customize, add ground to ground missles?

    I think it would be awesome if you could add different car engines (v8 v6. V10 v12 ) and add more stock cars to the game @AndrewGarrison

    The other way is to download the file onto a computer then transfer the file via USB into the game files

    @AirPlaneBrosTM sadly, apple doesnt let mods be downloaded through other apps/websites

    Someone would need to look into the coding and to allow it to be executable for iOS instead

    @Stormtrooper61 If you got SP on Amazon Underground, then you never purchased or owned the game. You will have to purchase SP if on the Amazon App Store or Google Play if you want to get the new update.
