Suicide drone planes

10.5k Xenotriver  6.7 years ago

I have been experimenting with missile guided drone planes, and I have noticed that if I add even the smallest wing, it starts to do circles. But, without wings it just falls to the ground no matter how strong the missile is (XML power fails this time).
Is there a solution? I am trying to make a new kind of aircraft carrier, with actual planes, that would just crash into other ships. Scaling down a plane without any actual wings, just with fuselage ones doesn't work.

    really smart,i will say to you that do NOT make the missiles bigger! they will fly wierder. You should edit max thrust to 9999 and max speed to maxSpeed in meters/second. then maxHeadingAngleAdjustmentRate and maxVelocityAngleAdjustmentRate. you may also put bombs on the planes and then proximityDetonationRangeMax
    to how Close they wel detonate. if targeting ships it should be pretty big as it is meters from the exact center of the enemy. Also deactivate the bombs by making activation Group to 9 in xml. Also dont use normal wings use structual panel so that it doesn't bother how the missile/''plane'' flies. Any questions? just ask

    @BACconcordepilot yeah I used to do it like this, but I want it to be more realistic, the planes would fly by themselves right to the target.

    Try massScale=0.000000001
    And you might need to adjust the maxVelocityAngularAjustmentRate or something like that

    that is weird, I was tinkering with the concept myself and managed to make a very bad, knockoff self-guided Ohka, and it kinda worked, I'll see if I retrieve the save file somewhere
