  • The Lamest Beta Ever 5.8 years ago

    @NathanMikeska also I think part explosions may be broken as I ran an aircraft's wing into a bridge and it sheared off. following that, the aircraft ran into the ground and disintegrated, without explosions. This was done with mods enabled, as it was after I had re-enabled them.

  • The Lamest Beta Ever 5.8 years ago

    @NathanMikeska The game didn't run as badly as the last test, running consistently around 20fps with just the aircraft and 10-15fps with a large AI aircraft (someones aircraft carrier) in close proximity, even with all mods reenabled. I'm not sure why it ran so badly last time, although i did have to restart my mac afterwards, due to it running slowly in all aspects. However, I did find that the USS Beast has a max detection range of 5 mi, whereas the destroyers and USS Tiny all have the 10 mi detection limit.

    I am using mods, although i don’t think there were any console errors. The issue persists even into the menu, running at around 14fps instead of the usual 30-60fps. I reverted to 1.7 due to the frame rate, so to test I will have to reinstall the beta @AndrewGarrison

  • The Lamest Beta Ever 5.8 years ago

    On MacOS the frame rate has taken a hit, as the same 125-part aircraft has gone from running at around 30fps to around 7fps. Mods, graphics settings, and AI traffic are the same with both

  • The debate to end all debates 5.8 years ago

    I'm fairly certain the order of featured planes is based on when they are featured, newest first, so the ordering is arbitrary

  • Weird plane made a return big time 5.8 years ago

    @DerekSP i don't think a larger version of the GL-10 has been made, although it would match the description. I don't know much about the central European aerospace industry, so i wouldn't be able to say anything there.

  • Weird plane made a return big time 5.8 years ago

    Although the fact of you being in Europe does change things

  • Weird plane made a return big time 5.8 years ago

    an aircraft that fits some of the specifications is NASA’s GL-10 Greased Lightning. It has a high mounted swept wing with (almost) a H-tail, designed for VTOL operations with a tiltwing. An enlarged version of this, with a propulsion system similar to the V-22, as brought up by @JelloAircraftCorporation, would explain the general design, as well as the propellers size, sound, speed and the apparent inability of landing gear to work. @DerekSP

    One hot tip, depending on the window arrangement, is to remove the shortcut of F12 showing the dashboard

  • A true stealth drone! 5.9 years ago

    @Notaleopard @FastDan i think its due to code making the AI vehicles stop shooting at something that's already dead, which would be done by not targeting anything which has had a drastic change in aerodynamics, such as when everything on an aircraft save for the cockpit is destroyed, or when a small, agile aircraft is dropped from a large, stable aircraft

  • Best Plane Movie? 6.2 years ago

    Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb. A Stanley Kubrick black comedy about an insane general who scrambled his Air wing of B-52s, the crew of one of these bombers, and the us president and other generals trying to stop the bombers. It has some great lines, such as “Gentlemen, you can’t fight in here, this is the war room!”

    @Linebob its not impossible to download, if you undo and redo in the designer it will reload the design without the mods

  • Is Featured Function broken? [Please MOD help!] 6.3 years ago

    My understanding of the featuring system is that a mod or dev sees a post that they like, and have the ability to feature it. There is no specific automatic requirement for featuring, except that the mod or dev likes the post. This means that a build that has five upvotes, a build that is three years old or a build with only two parts have the same chance of being featured, the only difference being whether or not a mod or dev think it should be featured
