@Lwillswith2sentryguns it's already pretty hard :D
I tried with AI guns or AI planes....
but trying do dodge both them and the base missiles was a bit too much 😅
@ShinyGemsBro how do you think helicopters got armament to begin with?
they strapped weapons to existing transport heli's ;)
attack helicopters came much later.
the first operational attack helicopter was the Bell AH-1 Cobra, which is based on the UH-1 Huey.
reminds me of the K-Max.
which is not a very maneuverable heli, but has wonderful hovering and lifting capabilities.
it's also why the Army started using it Unmanned on remote control for cargo logistics ;)
I bought the OST, and I like all 5 tracks tbh...
I run the game with music off, but they are all on my playlist when I put music on to do other things.
@JustAnotherStudent first of all thank you, glad you like'em :)
if you mean the exhausts, that's on purpose.
when afterburner is off, the reactor thrust goes to the reactive thrusters for hovering, with excess heat exhausted out those ports..
when afterburner is on it diverts all power into the main engines, shutting down the reactive thrust system, including excess heat and exhaust... so the rear exhausts cut off as they now go through the engines.
at least that's the idea behind that :)
@ComradeComissar this is pretty cool!
love that you made it more realistic than ingame
highly recommend checking out command and conquer Ultimate collection on steam, if you want to check out other games in the series..
I got it and been having a blast in Zero hour, tiberium sun and C&C3 after not playing them for a few years.
@Kevito212 cheers, happy they helped :)
didn't get a chance before to take it for a spin until today..
this is a great heli!
very fun to fly, and very challenging from how heavy and sluggish it feels.
Great work!
@WinsWings I see spinning and sudden altitude loss as a good feature not a bad on..
I like the fact that this craft can kill you if you don't pay attention and manage it :)
@WinsWings thanks for the compliment :)
I like this little thing, think it would fit great as a crop duster.
not a big fan of always flying with gyro on, but it's not that bad in this case.
using nozzles and Vtol engines needs the Gyro power.
loses altitude really quickly and gets into spins easily...
but those only mean you actually need to pay attention to it..
so yeah, it's a nice VTOL I like it :)
@taleofatadpole they should be synced by default, in the MP launcher you have a checkbox, make sure it's black.
not sure if that box appears in MP launcher in general, or if you need TrollShield.
@taleofatadpole MP isn't the best for PVP...
Guns, Cannons, Rocket pods, flares/chaff don't show or work on other players
Depending on ping, AA missiles might not work either.
make sure you have Explosions synced on both players, and be on discord, so you can call things like gun kills, or when the game doesn't register a hit by missiles.
Cool build, and Shalom from Israel.
fun to fly and looks good for the low part count!!
one issue I found is Rudder needs collision disabled.
@Shugie Israeli aircraft can carry Israeli weapons, like the "Shafrir" missile (based on AIM-9 frame, but not an AIM-9)
depending which years of service, this could be any one of many AIM-9 lookalike missiles that served on this airframe ;)
.
Israel doesn't have any carriers, however the Hook was used on tarmac runways that have a Wire system for emergency landings assistance or just for fast landing to re-deploy.
I don't think any Israeli A-4's or any fighters ever landed on a Carrier, other than helicopters and logistics craft sadly
@Lwillswith2sentryguns for aircraft Wasps and Pigpens..
for AI guns my own based on the autoturret from my Orca
@AWESOMENESS360 cheers and thank you! :D

@WinsWings here you go ;)
it's not easy!
I've done it a lot of times, but It's one of my favorite things to do when I play :)
one of my favorite challenges is landing in the ice base with no countermeasures.
+2it's tricky, but quite satisfying when succeeded :)
@126 cheers buddy :)
@126 thanks, but it's not as bad as the media makes it out to be. :)
+1very cool!
@ShinyGemsBro They can carry more of them than a lot of attack heli's ;)
and they are far cheaper to lose
Nice helicopter!
+1love the wind vein for direction awareness.

Cool and fun little Heli!
don't like the always gyro-on, but I get why.
reminds me of the K-Max.

@IslandSinker cheers :)
happy to see this still being helpful.
@TheMouse oh ok, thanks

+1מגניב, לא ציפיתי לראות עברית כאן

pretty cool.
quick input tip for the turn signals for that constant blinking
Left signals-> abs(clamp(Roll, -1,0))
Right signals-> abs(clamp(Roll, 0,1))
Oh and T pls :)
@DISHWASHER2005 cool pics
+1RIP to all those who lost their lives that day.
The P-38 wasn't in Pearl.. and the P-51D didn't exist yet..
cute helicopter
love how it came out
great work!
looks cool!
+1link?
This is the Game update I've been wishing for 2-3 years now.
TY for this!!
