As for now my current top speed is 12000mph, looking for ways to improve
EDIT: as of now my newest record is 23000mph.
EDIT: as of now my record is 31,000mph. And another thing to note is that lift and part connections as a whole reliably fail around 30,00mph--32,000mph. Although getting to that speed is quite hard due to
Supersonic wing flutter.
EDIT: new record, 75,000mph, and outran the render border. Things get real weird
I went a little further than 200,000,000 mph before a render crash.
@CrazyCodeC 75,000 mph to be exact
@KingDeadshot i have a new record, 75,000mph!. I outran the render border :D
@KingDeadshot ive just got a lot of fuel, modded engines with an intinite top speed, and a plane which looks more like a missile. :)
@Biggie88smalls I've gotten cockpits to a few million, I'm talking about a whole plane.
@KingDeadshot what? How?
once i went something like 6391847 mph then the game crashed
@KingDeadshot what speed? Do tell.
@CrazyCodeC ive discovered that it starts to get scetchy at 10000mph. Things get interesting once you pass that, such as the plane suddenly changing direction, or air not working right, though whats most common is the plane disintergrating randomly.
@CrazyCodeC nah, im talking about getting a whole plane that fast, not just a cockpit, its too easy
I've hit negatives
I've hit 14000 mph in an experiment of mine, I don't know how much farther you can push the physics before the game dies though.
I ejected a cockpit with modded detacher, and reached relativistic speeds, escaping not only the atmosphere, but the entire solar system.
