Question about simpleplanes mobile constantly refreshing.

8,222 Airheaddivision  1.7 years ago

Why does my simpleplanes constantly refresh itself, like I go out of the game to look at an aircraft online for only a second and it refreshes itself, what’s that all about, the number of parts on an aircraft maybe, well I think even with that it wouldn’t really matter, it most likely will refresh itself anyways. I wish there was a way I could stop the refresh thing, it’s not a huge problem but it is so obnoxiously frustrating, I can’t be the only one experiencing this.

I ain’t deleting the app, last time I did that I lost a ton of good things, I ain’t going there again.

    @Airheaddivision If it's only crashing with higher part counts (e.g. not with any of the default planes), then that would likely be the cause of the issue. You'll have to do some trial-and-error testing to figure out what the maximum part count your device can run since it varies from one device to another.

    @HuskyDynamics01 I’ve also turned down settings, same situation.

    @HuskyDynamics01 this is recently new, I’m on the iPad Air 4th generation, I’ve already been having problems solely with simpleplanes and a glitch I’ve been having could be part of this situation. This is a brand new iPad, not used, sure some of my app do the same but not a second I leave and open it up again.

    The highest part count I have is 948 parts, although I will be moving this aircraft to my PC which can tolerate a ton of parts.

    @Airheaddivision The number of builds you have saved shouldn't affect anything performance-wise, what matters is the part count of the specific build you have loaded at any given time.


    Does your game still crash when using the default planes?
    What device are you on?
    How long has this been happening?

    @HuskyDynamics01 yup, I got a dozen helicopters with a ton of parts, would that do it, I am sending the to my profile to make room tho, would that fundamentally stop it you think?

    @Airheaddivision Hmm... if it's closing itself like that, it's probably crashing. Usually this happens because people try to run builds with a much higher part count than their device can handle (though that limit varies from one device to another and you really only find it with trial and error), or they're running with their graphics settings too high. Are there any specific builds that cause it to crash more frequently? Does it still do this even when just using the default planes? What device are you on, and how long has this been happening?

    @HuskyDynamics01 in other words, restarting, shutting down, that’s really what it’s doing, now it’s not entirely problematic annoying? Yes it is, I just want to know what this is so I can be prepared if the game goes nuts.

    What do you mean by "refreshing itself"? What specifically is the game doing?
