@IStoleYourMeme if you set every pair of wheels on opposite sides of the vehical to the engine, and make every other pair AG 1 or 2, then reverse the direction of the AG 2 wheels, you can get a reverse in with roll steering. Make sense? If not you can check out my Ferdinand to get a general idea of what I mean
Lol, I found just making a tiny super fast plane works great. I also began to experiment with the Pistons, wound up setting four on each other set to cycle with the cockpit on top, and the missiles couldn't hit it for s*. Couldn't stop laughing
You can if you set the controls like the throttle, rotators, gear, etc. to different activators, so you can have very different aircraft controlled one or more at a time, with a maximum of 6. That way, all the controls will be the same for the aircraft
@Cobrafighters I made this before there were in game mods to move stuff around to the exact spot. I just used sections of wing with blocks on the ends, and connected them by the wings on the plane with the cockpits off. Once you have your formation set up how you want, just add cockpits to the planes and take out the joining sections
Playing with it a bit more, I think I’ve found the best balance for the suspension. I downloaded the version you based yours off of, and a few others I have unlisted and they all spin the same way, and I feel like it’s just the very design of the suspension clashing with the physics, and not something I have any true control over with my limited knowledge of this games inner workings
Running some quick experiments, it’s the suspension, specifically the shocks. That was an absurd and unnecessary value, 10x kept it from collapsing, but was really soft (never went past 10). 15, maybe 20 would be the most you need, and some upped damping, too. There’s still one wheel being a problem child, the #2 wheel on the left side. It does a little wiggle I’ve noticed with a lot of my builds. Still haven’t found any common connection for why it does across any of them
@AndrewGarrison I tried that. I don't think I noticed at first and saved it that way. It's almost like it glitched into X-ray mode and then saved itself there
@AndrewGarrison it usually isn't too much of a problem, and it doesn't damage the saved aircraft when it does that. What I'm still interested in though in the purple textureless pieces
Oh, and recently, on another project, a couple of pieces stayed in x-ray view mode, and I had to rebuild them to make them appear solid again

@AndrewGarrison no, it was working fine, and then when I hit undo (seems to be the major cause) it continually loaded in an exact copy, and as I tried to fix it and so forth, it continued to misbehave. The extra parts had to be taken out of the builder piece by piece. Also, on the topic on undo, when I use it, there is a tendancy to either go way too far back, no where, or either one and then the loading up of a copy placed exactly where the original is
@Pilotmario that it definitely was. Most of the time, being as the allies were advancing towards the Germans defenses, they would encounter either stationary PaKs or more mobile tanks such as the Panther or Pz.III or IV. The tigers tended to be broken down and disabled well behind allied territory or stuck before they could reach the frontline
@AndrewGarrison I think it tends to happen with the fuselages, fuselage cones, and such. I tend to use a lot of them. The parts left behind have always been either a shock or a fuselage block
@EliteIndustries1 My phone and SP are both up to date, and I have lots of storage left, with regular back ups. This sort of thing has happened before, where the plane would go textureless and depthless purple, and anything done beyond that point would inevitably delete it
@MechWARRIOR57 6 for a total of 75 points I believe, if you can manage to get it to the proper timing. And a 7th for a green tracer. 5 if it comes close to the timing requirements (it's for a large cannon with a small loading area, would take a while to reload)
@MechWARRIOR57 it's ok about the color, the green is a little more accurate to what I want, but I doubt anyone would know the proper tracer color anyways.
@SpeedmeisteranAircraft I never once claimed that my build is the best, nor have I ever, nor will I ever. I don't care if you claim someone else builds your planes for you, they are still on your profile
@SpeedmeisteranAircraft if your just here to complain about how you didn't like it, then just go away. No one needs to hear your thoughts about it. And it's not like your builds are anything of particular note anyways
Might just be a few pixel wide part catching inside the ground acting like a lever. Try removing everything infront of the point of rotation and re building it from there

@Blackburn , sure, I’ll take a look at it. Might take a while, working long hours, but I’ll see if I can find anything
@Blackburn @CalebRepublic , I’ve been inactive in terms of posting, yes, but I still play lots. Hard to get bored of this game. What did you need?
@AndrewGarrison I tried that. I don't think I noticed at first and saved it that way. It's almost like it glitched into X-ray mode and then saved itself there

At the point of the pictures, I had already deleted the game. The build in the pic was also built after the deletion and re downloading

@AndrewGarrison or continually and evidently ignore this

I've finally gotten it to work, if you could please check it out, that would be great
@AndrewGarrison the game just kind of shit itself. I've taken screenshots of some happenings
Of course imgur is refusing to behave itself and work proper, I'll post the links once it does it's thing
@TemDesBur just lots of experimenting, I spend lots of time building random things just to see if they work
@JakeTheDogg thanks, I was worried building it that it would be sticky or gets stuck often
@AdrianFlyingAce wow... ehh, how much did that cost?
@AdrianFlyingAce I've seen a few videos of people's 1/4 tigers, even an old vid of a maus
@Pilotmario that it definitely was. Most of the time, being as the allies were advancing towards the Germans defenses, they would encounter either stationary PaKs or more mobile tanks such as the Panther or Pz.III or IV.

Would it be of any use to delete and re download the game?

@exosuit probably is

@EliteIndustries1 iOS, an iPhone 5s
@MechWARRIOR57 any day now you might actually remeber what you said and do it
@MechWARRIOR57 how long do you think this will take?
@MechWARRIOR57 ok, thanks
@MechWARRIOR57 6 for a total of 75 points I believe, if you can manage to get it to the proper timing. And a 7th for a green tracer. 5 if it comes close to the timing requirements (it's for a large cannon with a small loading area, would take a while to reload)
But you think you could do it?
@MechWARRIOR57 it's ok about the color, the green is a little more accurate to what I want, but I doubt anyone would know the proper tracer color anyways.
@qwert13357 but the thing is, it deletes all the texture-less parts, and they don't come back through part redo

What's amazing is that this is apparently mobile friendly. Great build, I love the Nimitz
@IMDABEST Lel, just a little too late were you
@Shmexysmpilot and @PlanesOfOld thanks you two, your advice helped the most (The rest of you helped in your own way)
@Mox two problems with that.
1: there is no update available
2: I can't update anything for some reason, and i have to wait for it to auto update (techincal difficulties)
@GoldenEagle you know, a comment would have been much more useful than an upvote
This is actually pretty good, and rather stable. Good job
@BoxGlow, there, it should be fixed now
Might just be a few pixel wide part catching inside the ground acting like a lever. Try removing everything infront of the point of rotation and re building it from there
@Shmexysmpilot weird...
I know a way the balancing is possible in real life. If the planes COM was directly over the wheel base, it would stand like that
Strictly mobile user. I don't have any money to buy a laptop or computer to play on
@MrSilverWolf YAY! Unlucky for me, I have a chrome book with lots of processing power, and it supports next to nothing for games
@esms1999 ok, thanks. Be sure to tag me in it so I know when it is out
Just checked, it's around 750 parts that it maxes out on
Somewheres around 5-6 hundred parts, I'd have to check
Nvm, around 750 parts, might be laggy, but it can work
