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.
@32 I just searched for "unity low poly car pack" images and looked for the one that had cars from the trailer in it. I initially identified the right one from the tan van with red and orange stripes, and then I checked back with the trailer to make sure the other vehicles were also from the same pack.
@factpoultry Select the plane, go into edit mode, hit Ctrl+B, move your mouse, and click, then switch it to Vertices (instead of Edges) in the menu that pops up in the bottom left.
@AndrewsGarsion Yeah, that's not something you can do unless they're both, like, on a Raspberry Pi or something that you could just rebuild one on the other board. Companies generally don't make their hardware in a way that lets them be combined in a modular way with others.
@TarikArkswagen Basically, yes. Images hosted by Discord can only be linked to other places for like a day or something before the link expires. They'll stay in Discord just fine, but won't appear anywhere else.
In short, Discord wasn't able to keep hosting an unlimited number of files anywhere on the web indefinitely and for free.
Now it shows the top users over certain amounts of time (week/month/quarter/year) in addition to the all-time points totals. That's pretty neat.
I'd been wondering when we'd start to see some changes around here in preparation for SP2, and I guess they're getting started.
@PlaneFlightX
P-51 (Simple): You've been around for a long time. Like, a long time. You like all the new features (wait, those updates were how long ago?) but deep down the game has always been about slapping a bunch of basic parts together and seeing if it flies, and the simple P-51 fits that to a T. You also have the original version saved because you missed the engine sound, and the OST makes you feel nostalgic in a slightly bittersweet way.
@Boeing727200F Normally I'd say just one per person, but...
Quadcopter: Either you haven't played since before 1.8 (and/or really dislike the heli parts for some reason) and miss the days of helicopters made with regular propeller engines, or you just picked it because you knew nobody else would. The Quadcopter is nobody's favorite. You don't actually own a quadcopter or drone in real life, though, and you vaguely dislike the Gator 2 for some reason.
@MrPigee
Hellkeska: If you were around pre-1.11, the original Hellkeska was probably also your favorite, but the remaster is an upgrade in just about every way so you switched pretty quickly. You like swing wings and are a little sad that they're only on this one, but the non-Western design balances it out. You aren't the flashiest or the most popular (though you do have your fans), but when given a job to do, you get it done and you get it done right.
@Dissent3R
Bush Plane: Like the Sea Plane, you prefer to just soar instead of dogfighting or breaking physics, but you took "land anywhere you want" in a different direction and spent a lot of time trying to reach difficult places just to say you made it there. The original Bush Plane was probably not your favorite pre-1.11. You take a bit of pride in having what feels like a less common favorite plane, but in reality you have no idea how common or rare it is.
@TheMouse
Vertigo: You're not afraid to be different, but you still want to maintain an element of "cool". You're a huge fan of the remastered version, and though you used to need a gyroscope for VTOL aircraft, your skills have improved to the point where you greatly prefer flying without one. Hollow fuselages, custom colors, and XML scaling are your friends, and you have made at least one joke directed against the British in the last six weeks.
@Boeing727200F Don't worry, he's only got one more before he hits the upload limit and starts posting as @SabreAlTariq or @AnotherUser67 all of a sudden. Not exactly subtle, this fella.
@Graingy
Wasp (Simple): You like the remaster, but it just doesn't have the same charm as the OG, and you prefer the better performance over the looks anyway. You're not the single most threatening thing in the sky, but you're far from the least, and you won't let anyone forget it. Your first plan to conquer the Ice Base was either to download someone else's build or fly straight at it at top speed and aim for the opening.
Also, cool way to announce you're evading the original ban (based on the fact that the page for your original account is inaccessible, and that your profile highlights that it was banned). That generally goes very well for people.
I was thinking "Cool, but what's so super about it?", then I saw the emergency chutes and audibly snorted. This is peak SimplePlanes right here and I love it.

I would recommend using the smooth fuselage option though; it'll look a lot cleaner under and behind the cockpit.

Kingfisher 541 reporting, we'll watch this one from the sidelines. Happy hunting, folks.

+1SimplePlanes is not free, period. Where did you download it from? There is no free download on this website.
+1At least take the time to link people to the source you're plagiarizing.
Edit: Just deleting the entire article you copied and pasted works too I guess.

@TheMouse Nope, beyond the hunch that it's probably linked to the automod somehow because it just started happening after the automod was deployed.
