    What worries me now is that there's an unequal amount of downloads between the front and back halves of this plane...

    @Nickasaurus I've tried that before as well, but I certainly didn't get a disappearing plane! That is awfully weird

    @Skua I tried xml modding a control surface to be activated by vtol and deleted the whole plane!

    @Jackie that's an approach I hadn't thought of, actually. My current plan was to give control surfaces two inputs that would add together, and include the VTOL slider as an option. This would mean you could adjust trim with a combination of pitch and VTOL inputs, but would also allow for things like ruddervators (pitch + yaw) or tailerons (pitch +roll). That's all a pipe dream for now though haha

    @Skua Trim control would be magic. Finally planes that could track in a straight line without constant adjustment. Like, a button on the pause menu would bring up a VTOL-like slider, used to adjust trim. Once satisfied, you could go to the pause menu and take the slider off.

    @Jackie it's early days yet, I don't really know anything about creating parts for games, so I'm doing my best to learn. I feel like the smoke mod went pretty well, though, it's the one near the top of the forums just now. I want wings with trim control more than anything else, but that is likely to be quite difficult. We're just gonna keep learning and see what we can do!

    @Skua me? Get an android or new computer? With the Toyota eating all my income? Yea, right. New parts do sound fun, though. If I may inquire what parts you're developing?

    @Jackie ahh, that's a shame. You seem to be doing alright anyway, though! Well if you do somehow get your hands on a new computer, or an android device, feel free to give me a shout and I can show you how it works.

    I'll probably avoid flying wings, because I've done a couple already and they're a bit samey. I'm starting to work on creating new parts for the game, maybe I can make something big to showcase them if I manage anything good

    @Skua i wish I could do XML edits, I just don't have the time or resources. Half of the capacitors in my computer are broken, and several are just not there anymore. The RAM's also on its last legs. Picture Dial-up running on pure molasses. If you feel you should make a large build, do something someone has never done before. 1 and 2 engine flying wings have been done. Maybe even a 4 engine, but I'm positive nobody's done a 6 engine flying wing. Go outside your comfort zone, and you might find something extraordinary.

    @Jackie that's kind of you to say. I guess I just find tiny xml edits easier to work with than giant fuselages. Maybe I should try a really big build soon

    @Skua are you kidding? One of your planes alone outweigh all of mine in terms of detail. This this was easy to make. Just carve out a fuselage and add wings and engines. I'm positive you could do much better.

    @Jackie well good on you for persevering with such huge builds anyway, I never have the patience for that sort of thing haha

    @Skua I can't thank you enough. I'm still a bit scared a future upload might be too stubborn to go, one that I can't disassemble. Oh well. I can see why you've got gold.

    Once again, I apologize for not being able to upload the entire craft, my iPad isn't up to spec.
