@GabrielFangster70 There's no open beta for SP2... (at least not yet).
Dorian announced that SP1 got a very small update on the beta branch that basically added a button to take you to the SP2 store page and did a few other behind-the-scenes things, but SP2 itself is currently still in closed testing only.
Posts apparently getting removed from the website isn't something I'm knowledgeable enough about to comment on, but either way that isn't related to SP2 (or the SP1 beta).
@GabrielFangster70
SP1 planes are intended to be forward-compatible to SP2 (and will also still work in SP1, obviously). This is actually stated on the SP2 store page, I believe.
Also, could you clarify what specific issue you're referring to in the main post? I can't find where you've actually said outright what "this" is that is affecting mobile users and causing SP2 to need more development time.
Sounds like you're doing it right; not sure why it wouldn't be working. The successor system is based on the craft URL in the XML file (in non-technical terms, if you use the same cockpit part as what you downloaded, it should be a successor to that), so downloading it, making changes, and then uploading it should work fine.
You can always ping a site moderator in the comments and ask them to manually make it a successor if it doesn't work, though. Very helpful for challenge entries in particular.
I can't tell where the brainrot is supposed to end.
Also, please don't make a habit of capitalizing every word. It makes you look like you're five and don't understand basic sentence structure.
To be completely honest, the only mirroring tool I ever use is the selected part one. It's great for mirroring exactly what I want to mirror (since it also takes parts attached to the selected one) without messing with symmetry or FT or anything else that might not be identical on both sides. Mirror All is fine for really simple builds, but it very quickly becomes too blunt when working on something with more detail.
That being said, the automatic live-update mirroring that Juno has would be a fantastic option to have in SP2 (hypothetically, of course). It makes it super easy to do stuff like wings and other things that should be symmetrical in most cases, but can then be "unlocked" to let each side be edited individually if there's smaller asymmetrical details or something. It's a great thing to have as an option.
Edit: Like PlaneFlightX said, maintaining consistent connections when mirroring something is absolutely paramount as well.
@Dissent3R honestly I have no idea what that's about; the build was posted on March 27th, and the closed playtest (which I don't think they're currently a part of, unless it's under a different name) didn't start until the middle of April.
@Rob119 no no no a spear is a weapon, not a utensil. It can probably be used as a utensil in a similar way to how a fork, fivek, threek, or twok can be used as a weapon, but will likely be similarly ineffective.
Spamming a copypasta on a bunch of random builds is a fantastic strategy that definitely doesn't get people banned for spam. Definitely keep doing that.

@FlyOnTheWall As we've all learned in the last several years, calling people Nazis because they don't behave how you want them to is a fantastic way of convincing them to agree with you. Good move.
Most of these are generally good, here's my thoughts:
1) The situation you described might depend a lot on the specifics of the build, but the drag system as a whole could definitely use at least some modernizing (remember, it was designed with basic blocks in mind, not all the funky clipping stuff people do regularly these days).
2) Like the ability to control fuel and have it in different tanks instead of just one big "fuel percentage" that pulls from all of them? That'd be cool, though I'd prefer if it was optional because sometimes it can be better (and certainly easier) to just put fuel wherever and have it work anyway.
3) I don't think a story or campaign is needed in the base game (beyond a set of tutorial missions, for example), but I hope that it can be done via modding (at least, more in-depth than it can now) because that would be really cool.
4) Too vague.
5) Part materials would be really neat, though I wonder if it would be better to allow for the appearance and its properties to be adjusted separately to accommodate less realistic designs.
6) Yes, please. Juno: New Origins already does engine customization quite well in my opinion, though I assume SP2 will have more options since it's a plane game and not a rocket game.
7) Not a glitch. If that's happening, your wing loading is too high (basically, pulling up is making the wing stall because there isn't enough wing area for the mass of the plane). Reduce weight, increase wing area, or both.
8) This is exactly what trim is for. An automatic trim mode would be kinda neat, though.
9) Again, Juno: New Origins does this very well and I'm expecting it to be the same or better in SP2.
10) Almost guaranteed given the shot of a submarine in the trailer.
11) Sure, though like SP1 they should be able to be disabled (or at least not always hostile, like the convoy tanks).
12) Tank tracks would be cool, but mech legs have so many design variations that I don't think a single customizable part would really work.
13) That's still not something up to Jundroo, it's up to Google and Apple, and they said no a long time ago. Most likely not happening, at least not officially.

Content blockers like uBlock Origin are pretty effective at hiding Shorts since you can just hide the entire "block" that they appear in.
