Script
Requires Python 3. Should work on Windows and MacOS, though not tested on MacOS. First enter the name of the aircraft file (without the .xml
or path), then the field you want to change, (for instance, health
), then the value to set it to (like 300
). It should then edit all parts to have that set. Simple.

@PlaneFlightX Funny enough, your comment made it easier to find this.
Ah, found it. I was looking for something called massEdit, that's probably why I didn't find it.
@WNP78 how exactly would you do it though? how would you set up python?
I still didn't get it cuz I'm a newbie in python. Can someone explain this for drag
i have python 3.6, will this work
@Kweed10 do you have the latest version of the game that supports those parameters? If you set them with overload, does that work?
@Kweed10 make sure you actually reload the aircraft into the designer, even if it's already there. If it's definitely not working, try running the script through a command prompt or something so that it doesn't close and you can catch whatever error it's outputting. If it got around to prompting for the property and value then it would have succeeded with opening the file so I'm not too sure what would be wrong...
@Chancey21 I'm sure it's possible to make mods on a mac. To make a fuselage though, you'd need C#...
I was just noticing the lack of a good reliable glass mod, and thinking about making one. Is it possible to make mods on a Mac? @WNP78
@Chancey21 easier, yes
Would a glass fuselage mod be easier? @WNP78
@Chancey21 quite, and it would have to be installed on anyone who downloads the plane. It's possible though and there's actually some code lying around somewhere
How difficult would it be to create an "opacity slider" mod?
@randomusername I have a mod in progress that would contain a function like this but I don't have as much time to finish it and this script was sat around in my files.
