Necessary QOL Changes

1,234 IMULAerospaceIndustries  2.9 years ago
  1. Add a configuration panel to select what saved aircraft the game can spawn as AI aircraft. I don’t want to fight tutorial planes and generic bombers, I want to be fighting aircraft that can shoot me down before I notice them. The game spawns some aircraft way too much, some not enough, and most not at all.

  2. Add an option to disable time change in levels. It’s incredibly annoying to spawn in, have the time be 6 AM, and change it to 12 only to have it revert to another time of day the next time I load the level.

  3. Underwater camera. If it can be done in SR2, it can be done in SP.

More coming soon, pay attention to edits.

    1. That's why you don't use air traffic. It's annoying anyway. Besides, Air traffic adds more part count to your sandbox and if you play on a low end phone like me, you'll suffer when playing with a high part count craft.
    2. Having more convenience is fine, but then again you could just restart the level if you want to just play with your plane. And changing time doesn't take too long either.
    3. While I do agree on this, it's kinda pointless now that I think about it. Unless they're adding more stuff on the underwater world, it's just pointless.
    Bonus note:
    I JUST WANT A FOX 2 PLEASE

    1: Agree. What's the point of auto-spawning aircraft if it's just the same 2 or 3 planes?
    2: Agree. There's no reason why the time should change every time you reload.
    3: I don't think this one is possible but it would be cool.

    1: spawn them yourself

    2: set day length to 180 mins, time to 12, save and forget

    3: while islands have a sea floor, the space in-between islands is just an endless void into the infinite abyss.

    @ZeroWithSlashedO well yeah, not literally, but you get what he means. He wants the ai to be able to take him down almost instantly if he's not paying attention.

    It's kind of impossible. Especially when you have countermeasures [1]. SP does not have TWS mode [2], which means you will always know if someone locks you or not. Hence why you can't have an aircraft shoot you down before you notice them. Furthermore, SP will always highlight any targets, no matter the range and the direction [3], and it will always select any target that is close to you when you just activated the targeting mode [4]. Sure, SP does have guns, but guns don't work above certain range depending on the velocity [5]. And keep in mind that bots won't shoot their guns unless below 1nmi [6].

    @ZeroWithSlashedO for the first one, "I want aircraft that can shoot me down before I notice them" is what he said

    • Don't be lazy and actually spawn them by yourself.
    • I kinda agree, but then again I don't really mind not having it.
    • We. Do. Need. This.
