@stevemc01 Checked on the issue, but all seems fine. - The microfighters become active once you activate the buttons 2 or 5 respectively, and will not shoot if these active groups are off.
I would suggest re-downloading it should it give you further trouble.
@stevemc01 you can remove the ai traffic to help you avoid this issue.
I have managed to dock it only 3 times. It is incredibly challenging as you have said. I did however make a challenge for people to try recording themselves as per the description of the plane. So far no takers...
@WarshipDude If you read the rules you will see that the challenge is still open.
Yes, You can make anything as long as its a vehicle in kit form. The Frame is optional. Adding a frame will add 10 points to your score..
I like the design for your first try of fuselage-wings. However I recommend you get into XML editting to give the plane a more fleshed-out look and give the plane a bit of better performance. Would like to see this plane rebuilt with a better look once you manage improve ;)
@Bob9998 If you see the example I shared, you will notice that the guns go through the nose.. If you leave these parts clipping, and I would need to "cut them off", I will deduct points.
@asteroidbook345 Part of the challenge ;) Personally I am not looking for 100% realistic Airfix parts. The smaller models for example tend to be less complex and have more whole parts (similar to the example I gave above).
Though there are some parts I wish this game introduces in later updates as I mentioned in this post
@Eeveemaybe your build is sadly a bit too simple for the challenge. Would recommend you read through the challenge requirements and try again. Don't need to make anything complex, but at least put some effort into it.
@SodiumChloride @232287168147825
the weight rules are NOT for the base game parts but for any additional dead weight added or removed mass scale using xml codes.
I have added this rule to make it challenging for people intending to make a pose for their plane. Plus your vehicle won't be moving, so technically it shouldn't make a difference anyway and there's no reason for you to add or remove said weight to begin with..
I will edit the rules a bit to make it clearer what i mean
@asteroidbook345 doesn't have to be perfect for the challenge. Doesn't mean you have to snip your plane in half. You can see the example I made to see what I mean

Not a fan of the super-fictional performance but I love the shape of this plane!!!
Reminds me of the Aurora aircraft
Very nice flyer!! Keep up the good work :D

Looks awesome! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for entering the challenge - I will update you with the score once the deadline of the Challenge comes to an end :)
@HellFireKoder Thanks for getting back :) and thanks for letting me know. Any possibility of having kick or ban vote system? adding sggestions
very cool design! keep up the good work!
Is it possible to introduce administrative controls? Remove players? Limit part count? that kind of thing?
My entry for the challenge. Thanks for reminding me how fun this game can be when you keep things simple :)
Smooth flyer, lots of fun to fly! Would be awesome if this joins my airfix challenge
@asteroidbook345 No that's fine! You've done a terrific job :)
RULE UPDATE: 26/06/2020 20:05 CET
Built it, it was pretty challenging! Will let you know of the results once the deadline arrives :)
Looks fantastic!! I will build it and will let you know :)
@MadBeaver2
Pretty interesting try, however I would recommend you read through the Airfix challenge rules to get a better score.
@MadBeaver2
Deadline is 31/07/2020 - about a month from now
Just built the model, it's a fantastic build!! Keep up the good work!
this looks ammazing! Fantastic job!
If you're looking to drop the part count, i suggest removing or changing the interior with simpler parts.
@asteroidbook345 Not a problem
@asteroidbook345 Why not! Looking forward :)
@Poomch980 My entry your Military Challenge

@232287168147825 ooh now i understood you. Yes it's a 5 point constant. NOT per part.
Once again, another Excellent Model!!! I will build it up as soon as possible and will score it :)
I will reveal the score once the challenge ends.

@Eeveemaybe sure! Looking forward :)
+1got a bomber in my list but I don't wish to reupload it. Could I link or do you still want a successor post?
Congrats on reaching gold ;)
Flies like a beaut! You should consider making custom gears, that way it would look more fleshed out! Keep up the good work! :)
+1Very nice try! Keep up the good work!
+1RULE UPDATE: 25/06/2020 10:45 CET
@232287168147825 drag scale makes no difference. As long as the model rests on a platform or stand without falling, you're in the clear.
as i mentioned before
DEAD WEIGHT
or
XML MASS SCALE
or
FUEL
will deduct points
your model could weight 32,000,000 lbs. that won't make a difference, as long as it's not because of the above points
@232287168147825 not a problem. If you need to used them, it won't disqualify you. So don't worry too much.

this needs a b-36 bomber to take off from ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
join my airfix challenge?
@RamboJutter No worries and no rush. The deadline is 31/07/2020. I'm hoping the other participants will give their entries in by the deadline?
@Genzer11 I absolutely understand that. Tends to happen a lot on smaller bits.
Wow did not expect this plane to get any attention! Flies as elegantly as a livid hummingbird hahaha xD
@Beyjuan what do you mean?
@asteroidbook345 doesn't have to be perfect for the challenge. Doesn't mean you have to snip your plane in half. You can see the example I made to see what I mean
+1Such a nice flyer! Wonder if it's gonna show up in the Airfix challenge ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+1@Oxyea It is only a personal opinion, I'm pretty sure a lot of people here prefer planes to be that way
