Special Thanks to:
@PointlessWhyshouldi - for helping me test it and figure out some problems
@F104Deathtrap - for the support and great suggestions
Some other peeps - sorry I might have forgotten who(also, I don't want unnecessary tagging), but there are some people in discord who were very helpful
@RAAF No, sorry. I lost that project, along with the KV-1 when I reverted my laptop because I forgot to back up my files. I also might not go back to SimplePlanes for a while. So, again, sorry.
@cruiseman101 Uhmm, I might have to remove the rigging and the boats, though that might not make much of a difference because most of the parts are in the guns. But, I'll see what I can do
on). But I hope they don't follow suit, and start going around not upvoting builds just because they lack functionality(even if they themselves liked those builds). Going back to your first statement, This is a game, it is meant to be played... as the player sees fit. They make what they want to make, and post what they want to post. Nothing is immediately worthless if there was a good amount of effort put into it. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Lastly, a message for the people who are reading this; other people share their builds because thy want to share them. If what they make get a lot of upvotes, so be it. If you want to see a build get more attention(and if you really cared), help them, not just by upvoting. And if it's your own build that you want to see rise(talking to the people not you Mr. PilotDude, your builds are already pretty neat), then I suggest taking better screenshots :)
P.S. Sorry if it's a bit messy. I'm running low on sleep
@ThePilotDude OK thanks!
Also a few comments on your answers:
A game is meant to be played however the user wants to, in any way that would please them. If they want to use the game as a way to design planes(design as in aesthetically), then why not? Why would planes like that be worthless and objectively bad? They were just playing the game, and wanted to share what they made.
Secondly, you didn't say it was bad? then what is "objectively bad" Is that not "bad?" On the point of being undeserving of your upvote, that is your own opinion, and I respect that. But saying that a certain build does not deserve most of it's upvotes? People have different opinions than you. They have different standards. They look for different things in a build. For all we know, there are people on this site looking for nice designs of cars, planes, ships, etc. with no regard for the functionality. You are saying that this mindset is wrong. But is it? Do you have the right to say that these perfectly reasonable actions... are wrong?
This bring us to the next point: subjectivity. Different people base the quality of builds on their own feelings. What they want to look at, what they want to experience. If, for example, there was a build that flew really well, let's say it was a replica, and had a perfect flight model, but it wasn't that good looking. In fact, let's say it looked like trash. No livery, very plain(pun intended; sorry couldn't help it), rough edges, probable took a few minutes. People, would still give it upvotes right? Especially if they saw good comments about that build from players with high statuses. Comments like "good job on the flight model, try working on the design a bit next time." Why can't it be like that for people who prefer design? Why does a build have to be "essentially worthless" and "objectively bad" right off the bat, just because it doesn't fly? Or rather, just because it doesn't meet your standards for functionality.
To set the record straight, I agree with you that more functional builds should get more attention. What I don't, and never will agree on is that builds that don't fly, drive, or float properly, are immediately trash, worthless. It you have the right to upvote and not upvote anything that you want. Same goes for the people who upvote those builds which you think are crap. Sure, many people might agree with you(although, this is most probably a popular opinion among arrogant people who think their builds deserve more attenti
@ThePilotDude You said, people upvote things if they like them. Then why would a build not deserve a lot of upvotes if people just liked the way it looked? Playability and functionality are a priority, yes, but would you say that even if a person worked hard on the build, and just was just to tired to try and make it fly, especially with the lag caused by all those parts, the plane is still bad? So what if they get a ton of upvotes? What are upvotes anyway? What do they do? Do we need to shame builds just because we think they do not deserve upvotes? Is this a civilized way of expressing our opinion, especially on the comment sections of said builds?
Not rhetorical questions by the way, I want all of them answered
@MRMDAWURM I've posted it already. I was waiting(actually, I was not technically waiting) because it wasn't done yet. I was missing some details. Here's the link
you can either use the "Upload with Screenshots" mod(unstable), or you can take a screenshot and use the "Designer Suite" mod(stable) to show the picture in the designer
@ArcturusAerospace atan((5.6 + (pow(500,2) * sin( 2 * (30 * Throttle))) / 9.765625) / 3) / 90
It's a basic(hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa not really) projectile motion formula. The 500 is gun velocity, 30 is max angle of the main 28cm. 9.76... is the force gravity(it's different in SP, i think, don't quote me)

Thanks!
SimplePlanes 2 when?
Is there supposed to be a picture? If there is, it's not showing
Damn that looks amazing
+4also, the reason is because it's ForForTheMeme
DarDarTheDragon used to be my username in some other games
@Kenneth_
It was a joke, cus rtx and other stuff looks too gud
I refuse to believe that that is SimplePlanes
wrong game xD
How do you finish planes so f-ing fast??
Wow! Exactly how I remember it from when i was a kid. Awesome job!
if you can play it slowly, you can... play it while flying
Reminds me of Kangaroo Jack
also, thanks for pointing that out
Yea, pretty much
Thanks
CURSED
+1cool
I don't know why I'm even joining, i probably won't be able to run it on this potato anyway
@RAAF No, sorry. I lost that project, along with the KV-1 when I reverted my laptop because I forgot to back up my files. I also might not go back to SimplePlanes for a while. So, again, sorry.
Is it just me, or does the turret look a bit squished? Other than that... awesome job!
@cruiseman101 Uhmm, I might have to remove the rigging and the boats, though that might not make much of a difference because most of the parts are in the guns. But, I'll see what I can do
