Even if I'm stirring up a hornet's nest here, the truth is that Simpleplanes has already been abandoned by the developers.
The possibilities of what could have been done with it — see 'FlyOut' — I bought yesterday, and after about 5 hours, I've already built a cool aircraft. The controls may seem more challenging than they are, and the results are evident. It's possible to design the most challenging fuselage shapes; it's already light-years ahead of SP.
Even though it's still in Early Access, there's more to come, like crash physics. There was already an update from the developers yesterday. For me, it's a 200% alternative to Simpleplanes. I loved Simpleplanes, but after 2490 hours of playtime, it's enough. The points system here doesn't align with my values enough to justify investing more time.
My efforts aren't valued here. 🤨 Others copy my work, get more points, and it takes away my joy and motivation. Enough of that. Goodbye, and continue having fun copying! 👋
A good question.
As one of the older members in the community, I have a somewhat different perspective. It doesn't matter what changes they implement; as a game developer, you will guide the SimplePlanes community to something that makes sense. This transition has already been subtly hinted at through Jundroo's quiet promotion of 'Juno-New Origin.' Personally, I'd appreciate if the outdated game design mechanics in SimplePlanes could be updated similarly to Juno, offering more practical features in the game designer. That way, we'd have less FT code to deal with later on... but realistically, it's unlikely to happen. The future of SimplePlanes is uncertain, one way or another.
"As a realistic optimist, I believe that in one way or another, SimplePlanes' days are numbered."
For my part, I always try to incorporate a little startup-procedure logic into my aircraft projects. Even if I based on the comments noticed that such 'switch and button procedures' are too much for some here. 😊😅
Well anyway, everyone does their thing here as they please..

@Alisuchanka certainly! ✔👍🙂
I'll mention her -your credits... but I'm not ready yet. .. I still have a lot of work to do before I can start the photo session ..😎
🤣🤣🤣 simply insane - I don't quite understand the voting rules.. a flying "shoe box" gets so many votings.. sorry I don't quite understand the voting criteria... 😂😂😂
the big difference between both
Ingame editing tools, user interface and editing functions ; Juno: New Origins =>> 2023
Ingame editing tools, user interface and editing functions ; SimplePlanes =>> 2015
.. would be cool if there was a general overhaul in SimplePlanes 😎
wished for more ingame functionalities and editing functions - less "FunkyTree" workarounds 😜

+4great build and beauty awesome work - totaly underrated ...
+4- luv the start procedure --> like "MSFS2020 beginner level" 😉👍🏼😎
looks great!
+3Cool - its a "Lancia Delta" (mybe a "HF Integrale" version..?) it was my second Car. in the late 80ies .. "a long Time ago.." 🙂

great plane !
+2@hpgbproductions Hello, thank you very much for the helpful answer. 👍🏼🙂
✈ Yes, I almost thought so, since I noticed that the 'aiRefuelTanker.xml' file is rewritten every time it is started.
✈ is there a way to add a 'batch file' to the 'launch' parameter?
✈ so you could install an automatism, such as overwriting 'ai-tanker files' with custom files.
