I had this idea, has anybody ever heard of Stormworks, it’s like simpleplanes’ big brother.
basically, with the updated version of simpleplanes we have now, with all the cockpit parts and all, I think it’s turning into a more Stormworks-like game, so I was thinking a cool feature would be (mainly for VR, but hey, maybe PC and mobile who knows.) playable pilots, copilots, and crews. Sometimes you may find it hard to activate and activation or use door guns mounted to the side of an aircraft during a split second moment, specifically when flying a chopper or some vtol jet.
Maybe you could locally invite a friend and he/she could be a copilot while you are the pilot, or maybe a crew member in the back.
Perhaps you can perform challenges and activities like rescuing other downed players. Like simplerockets 2, you could have playable characters, but instead of an astronaut, it would be a pilot.
So, instead of having friends fly multiple aircraft, you could just be assigned to one, the one your “main” player picked.
But hey, that’s just an idea that I think could make the game a little more fun, or at least for people who don’t have the luxury to have a good PC or even a PC at all. It could work on some strong mobile devices, people tend to underestimate how much detail they can take.
