Craft Generator Script

Dev WNP78  6.7 years ago

Attached is a python script with a functioning GUI that can generate a craft, either with sideways or radial fuselages according to a function defined by the user (the function is in python).
On its use, I would prefer to have credit for the script. Feel free to modify or build upon it, though. And don't spam low-effort builds with it. Be creative, experiment, and don't just upload whatever comes out of the script. The radial mode I guess is also useful for people building hollow fuselages.
To run the script, having python 3 or something is probably a good idea. Then run ui.pyw and you should see the GUI in front of you. There is sample code in both of the modes, so all you should need is there. And just remember: python trig functions use radians. You have no idea how much that hurt me during development.

    @TheReturningHound there should be tabs for linear and round.

    Hi, I'm messing around with the script right now, and I can get the linear one to work. However, the "roundUI" doesn't work. To be precise, when I open the file, it just open the GUI for the Linear one. Is there a fix for this?

    @Looney no problem, if you managed that I'd love to see it!

    Working on a neural network version to have Deepdream craft, could I upload it when it's done?

    @WNP78 So does Qpython3 work with this?

    @Nerfaddict your version of python doesn't appear to tkinter installed correctly - see this post about that.

    @WingMan yes. The text box in the window defines a python function allowing you to enter any kind of formula/expression you want. For instance using sin or cos, squaring, etc.

    a shape other than the sine wave i thought i could use equations to make unique shapes, also when you generate where are these "simpleplane files"

    Plus, to create anything good looking, a decent grasp on trigonometric, exponential or other mathematical functions as well as symmetry and being able to code python. I'd be wasting my time.
