Some things that I would like to see in the distant future of SimplePlanes:

Mod BaconAircraft  8.4 years ago

1: More retractable landing gear solutions.
- For those who makes airliners and bigger planes, you've probably had to make custom landing gears with fuselage pieces, modded hinge and wheels. It would be cool to have landing gear options able to add or subtract the length of the landing gear, width, height, as well as the wheel size and how many wheels are included in what formations.

2: Better wings.
- Right now, no matter how you tweak the wing sizes, and its kind (e.g. flat bottem etc) its still a stubby square/rectangle panel. We should be able to modify the height/thickness of the wing from either sides. Also, the sifferent wing styles such as symmetrical, semi, flat bottem should be redone and be actually somewhat realistic.

3: Better cockpits.
- We all make our custom cockpits now, it would be nice if they added new cockpits to help.
- Let's admit it, the default cockpits suck.

    you can work default cockpits into basic builds see here: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/BkVY7h/Copperhead-Civilian-VTOL. I have a few others which work the cockpits in quite well but aren't published. Not a example of my finest work.

    @BaconAircrafts A work around to thicker wings is putting fuselage over them an example of this is my Lockheed design labeled Jet 2 Lockheed in my planes. You are essentially putting both in the same spot. Hope this helps.

    @RedstoneAeroAviation Google is not completely banned here, it is actually very badly disrupted. There exist some secret ways to link to Google but the most common solution is purchase a VPN.

    @Peridot Google has been banned here, unfortunately. The only way to bypass the defense is use VPN.

    @Peridot If it is to Google sorry I won't be able to see it. There's no Google in China.

    Go vote on uservoice:

    Wings

    Landing gear

    Cockpits

    Nice ideas. Add unique ones to the SimplePlanes Uservoice.

    Please though, only one suggestion per submission. Ones with a bunch of ideas in them don't mean nearly as much to us even if they have a bunch of upvotes b/c we don't really know which suggestion may have prompted people to vote.

    We look at Uservoice before starting any new content/feature update. Some of the suggestions on there have already been implemented I just noticed, we need to do a bit of cleanup.
