I went to update to v1.3 on Android and it asked for permissions to access the camera and microphone. What does SimplePlanes need these for?

@Sirstupid heh, true. I actually picked it for the bird, rather than the plane, though. I'm surprised there isn't already a Blackburn Skua on the site
Well, You chose the name, did you really think that nobody would request it? @Skua
@Sirstupid hahaha, I've considered it but I was put off by the fact that they're ugly as sin
You should make a Blackburn Skua. @Skua
@AndrewGarrison thanks for the clarification.
@Delphinus thanks to you too!
These are new requirements from Everyplay so that you can overlay audio and video on your replay videos. The game will never record any audio or video without your permission.
@RocketLL I dunno, I haven't installed it yet. I haven't seen any mention of one, though, just the usual Everyplay stuff which only records the screen
Is there a recording program included? If so, that might be the cause.
@Skua to be able to spy on you. They use your microphone to record your voice when creating, playing, etc. They use your voice and vocal tone to derive brain patterns and mood. Then they take that data, record it, and I'm not exactly sure what they do with it. They need access to your camera so that they can activate the front facing camera while you don't know it. They then record your facial expressions and look into your eyes to again, verify your brain patterns and the speed at which your neurons move. Then they use this collected audio and video data to do whatever they do. My theory is that they're either using this to improve the game or to achieve world domination.
