    Don't sweat it. My wheeled vehicles tend to be small and blocky

    @TheOwlAce I'm not that tech savvy, I'm sorry. I stumbled through my files and literally accidentally pinned the file to my common files listing..

    @TheOwlAce I had a hard time finding it too which is why I was a non-modder for so long. Even then I am not creating all new parts, which you can do with other tools, but just reshaping or altering stats on existing parts. For example I can now look at some of my designs that use so-called modded engines and see exactly how much of a boost they received.

    @TheOwlAce You're on Windows, right? Search for a folder called AppData, which should be under your' username's folder, go to LocalLow from there, select Jundroo, then SimplePlanes and finally AircraftDesigns. Right click on the design of your' preference and use Notepad to open it. You can see how the coding is laid out from there. I suggest creating an experiment file and toying around first with adjusting the shape of a simple block. Most of it is self explanatory it just takes time to get used to what goes where. I never mod a part that's attached to a design though I pull out a part, save the file, then go to the XML file and toy around with the settings.

    @DragonAerotech I need to figure out how to mod.

    @General360 Okay, thanks - that means this truck's colors will not stand out like a sore thumb in supplying the Eastern Front with critical reinforcements and supplies. lol

    @General360 Thanks! BTW, I should have asked before submitting but what is the present theatre of operations? Greenland or is there still fighting on the Eastern front of Europe?

    @TheOwlAce Yeah that hood/bonnet wound up being a lot longer than intended and I think it could have been shorter down the middle as well. The width was a bit more than I bargained for but still reasonably within the boundaries of what I wanted. Scale is still fairly close to that of our planes. This was going to be just the first of a series, like your' own, but I'm using a chassis I picked up from elsewhere, modified to a degree to fit my desires for the next truck - and that's the one I'll build subsequent variants from. ^_^ This one is for @General360 's RP.

    @MrSilverWolf Actually, those two jets are already in my subassemblies. I probably downloaded your' parts set at some point in the past and added it to a group. The airline markings though were new to my eyes - I probably figured I wouldn't be building many airliners and so left them alone. As for the little prop engine removed from SPs I even have modded versions of that little thing in my subassemblies. XD

    @MrSilverWolf Ah, so you're like me in that you have a zillion subassemblies. XD I only recently started learning to adjust XML code. Now that parts are adjustable by increments of 0.25 they should have altered the angles to 0.125 increments. I have to turn to notepad every time I wanna work with something that isn't in 0.5 increments. Since I try to stick to one scale I pretty much have to. It's also nice for making stuff like the Mirrors on this thing. (I don't know how to make them super reflective - it's just silver.) I could toss out probably half of my subassemblies right now but one never knows what might be lurking among those goodies.

    @DragonAerotech I have some modded parts I have collected if you want to use them, yes I found them them and then made bigger parts out of them.

    @DragonAerotech I use modded parts, it's just I have to make sure they don't get messed up when I save it as a subassembly, which happens all the time.

    @MrSilverWolf Oh okay, thought that you would have used XML for that for landing gear in the past. XD Sorry 'bout that!

    @DragonAerotech I have no idea, I'm only a mobile user. I would say to go to DeezDucks or some one like that for that question.

    @MrSilverWolf The one I'm cooking up now will be better. I've also got a tank that's pretty much ready to post but I'm considering changing the main gun. What's the XML code to allow parts to pass through one another again? Anyway, thanks!
