(Closed due to low download count) Low Cost Fighter Challenge

3,436 TailessAce  3.9 years ago

Your task is to design a low cost fighter in a span of 2 weeks.

Rules:

Everyone starts out with 25 points (materials), and is used to make the airplane. You cannot exceed this.

Xml modding is strictly prohibited. Some exceptions however are decals and landing gear, which can be made to 0 drag, 0 weight, and can disable collisions.

Can be fictional.

Each contestant will be restricted to 60 gallons or 229 Litres. Unless they are using additional fuel. See*

You have to use the parts below the paper, each part has a material number, and is used to subtract points. At least 1 wing, and 1 engine. Parts are listed down below

Weapons:
Wing gun: 1
Mini gun: 2
Countermeasure: 3
Guardian: 4
Interceptor: 5
SRAM (Short Range Air MISSILE) : 6

Survival:

Wing (can be resized): 1
*1 Gallon/4L of Fuel: 1
T1000 (Piston): 2
T2000 (WW2): 3
T3000 (Turboprop): 4
Blasto J15&J50 (Small Jet) : 5
Blasto BFE 150 (Jet): 6
Blasto BFE 300 (Turbofan) : 7

Each individual must include a total tally of material scores like this:

25 -5 wings -1 Blasto BFE 150/Jet - 2 SRAM -
1 Mini Gun = 0

How to win:

I'll be comparing all planes and will randomly make a table spot for each one to dogfight. Outlasting your opponent counts as a kill.

Total: -/200

Dogfight: - /100
Looks: - /10
Realism (no one wants a kite with missiles) :-/40
My thoughts: - /20
Performance (Top speed, Versatility ect) : - /30

The Prize will be 10 upvotes and the next challenge of their choosing.

Deadline Feb 1 can't be extended

    I will try to enter, this is my first challenge. And I am a little confused, do you subtract points for every gallon of fuel you have in the aircraft?

    @FearlessAce I’ll try to cook something up. I may need to build a testbed vehicle for a new trick I may implement so it coupd be awhile.
