@switdog08 Yes, a variety of sound effects to choose from would really improve the game, especially for the weapons. Here's to hope.
Float like a butterfly, STING LIKE A BEE
I'm just waiting for a sound effect block or something in the game so we can make it screech like an eagle...
@Planeboi49620
IKR?
@SledDriver
Yep I meant the same
I was not clear that.how your build have more roll inertia.
Btw awesome work.
Thanks for answer
sleds back with his trippy moving wing planes
@Ventus That's because the bombs are not actual bombs -- they're just cannon shells fired at zero velocity, so they drop like a bomb would. The benefit of this, apart from the obvious saving in part count, is that it doesn't affect game performance or the handling of your aircraft, as regular bombs, missiles, etc. do.
@Abhishek700
Thanks. Don't worry, I'm never offended by polite questions. By "roll out of order", do you mean how it has a lot of roll inertia at lower speeds? Because that's intentional. You might have noticed how the handling changes as you vary its speed, from "loose" and graceful at low speeds to "tight" and precise at high speeds.
Or did you mean something else entirely?
The missiles are usually ineffective because I set PartCollisionResponse="None" on all parts in my builds, and very high health. Still, it's not entirely invulnerable -- a missile strike in the right spot can destroy it.
Great build as always
But I found roll a bit out of balance
The design is great and transition is really smooth but flies great but I just found roll a bit out of order.
(Dont meant to offend)
One question why it happens that when missiles are fired on your aircraft it does no effect on your build and it keeps flying.
@rexzion Thanks, I'm glad you like it :)
This is a better F-14, btw this is an extremely cool plane (not sure if you can call it a plane)
I'll be using this when I need to kill everything for some reason
@SledDriver cool
@Belloaka I've been playing for a bit over 3 years now.
Hey, @CRJ900Pilot, thanks.
No problem,@SledDriver Just wondering, how long have you been doing simpleplanes? It seems like it would take quite a while to get your skill level.
Sleek, I like it!
Thanks, @Belloaka
@ThomasRoderick Hey Tom, nice seeing you too.
Thanks, @TheChosenOne
Very nice! Like usual it flies very smoothly.
Hey Sled! Nice seeing ya!
I'm getting some Romulan Star Empire vibes off of this. Awesome job!
@Zokowi Then I achieved my goal :)
Fun to fly
@CalebRepublic Airbrakes. Lots of airbrakes.
