New parts ideas

5,712 Jengstrom  7.1 years ago

Flaps/slats wings
-wing with standard flaps, customizeable range of motion
-wing with slats, on the leading edge of the wing


Modular missile!
-warhead, various sizes, choose-able air/ground setting guidance
-missile fins (editable like wings), work with the guidance system to guide missile
-rocket motors, various power levels


Modular cockpit interiors!
-fuselage block with a “pit” in it
-various dashboards
-fighter-style stick
-airliner-style yoke
-throttle stick


New canopies!
-bubble canopy, P51 style and f16 style
-glass (obviously)
-airliner cockpit windows, would conform to shape of areas applied


Bomb/missile bays!
-Shapeable like a fuselage block, multitude of internal attachment points, doors controlled by a switch by the camera view button?


let me know your thoughts!

    @F4f879 yeah I really love Weaver's planes because he puts realism and functionality over a working cockpit and decals.

    @F4f879 no you miss understand me, I mean functional and maneuverable planes. Also to be honest giving pre made cockpit parts would make this incredibly simpler. It would be interesting to be able to turn off your hud and not have be able to tell your altitude, speed, fuel readings, etc. without having to to do a shit ton of XML. (Besides it make iOS so much cooler and easier)

    I mean we can already get pretty functional and realistic cockpit parts, and adding like a yoke and stuff pre made would make it less 'simple' planes, but idk it could work @MrDoolittle

    @F4f879 it would make functionality more important than detail which would a welcone change in the game's meta.

    Having those cockpit parts pre made would make detailed cockpits less special I think: but I really like the rocket/missile idea!
