  • Sweep wing attacker 1.9 years ago

    280mph is pretty high for a takeoff speed (especially for what I'm assuming to be a subsonic aircraft). The best way to lower the speed would be to increase the wing area (since you have custom wings, I'll clarify that I mean the area of the Wing part hidden inside them, not the custom-built wings themselves).

  • Old Simple Planes, Look how far we have come 1.9 years ago

    I remember when there wasn't even a Wasp, because there weren't any weapons. There was only the Wright Isles, and the USS Tiny was the only non-player thing in the world other than the world itself. It's truly amazing how far this game has come.
    (Also, your two screenshots reminded me of a GIF I made back in the 1.11 beta that's pretty much the same thing.)

  • Question for the masters of simpleplanes 1.9 years ago

    @BotFinder2023 Not necessarily. All of the arcade cabinets people have done so far have just (ab)used labels for the screen, so it likely wouldn't need too many parts (unless someone decided to do it mechanically, in which case I'll call NASA and ask to borrow a spare computer)

  • Question for the masters of simpleplanes 1.9 years ago

    Nobody has done it yet (though it has become kind of a meme as people like Snow make more and more complicated arcade machines). It's definitely possible in theory though.

  • Well well well 1.9 years ago

    There haven't been any major updates in the last year because the devs have been focusing on getting SR2 (which has been renamed to Juno: New Origins, by the way) to the full 1.0 release, which is happening later this month. Andrew has confirmed that once this happens, they "plan to spend more time with SimplePlanes this year", though nothing further has been announced as of yet.

  • How to activate buttons or beacons when something is damaged? 1.9 years ago

    There (currently) isn't a way for parts to display or output their damage level, so unfortunately you can't make anything directly triggered by part damage at the moment.

  • How Do I Deafeat The Destroyer In Ww2 Torpedo Bomber 1.9 years ago

    Well, there's a few options. You can fly directly at it while maneuvering to avoid getting flakked, and then unload your weapons on it when you're close enough. You can also try climbing up to stay at the limit of the destroyer's flak range and then just bomb it from high altitude. You may also be able to maneuver to be either directly ahead of or behind the destroyer, so only one gun can shoot at you instead of both, and then make your attack run.

  • Can anybody explain this bug that maybe the devs had missed? 2.0 years ago

    I played for over five years on iOS and never encountered this, before or after the helicopter update. The control sticks will auto-center when you release your finger/thumb from them. My guess is either you are releasing the controls, or your device thinks you are releasing them (dirty spot on screen, dead spot maybe, etc.), and as such the controls are returning to center.

  • What are the rules for 3D exports? 2.0 years ago

    Rule of thumb: If it's your creation, you can pretty much do whatever you want with it. If it's someone else's creation (even if only partially), either get their explicit permission or don't do it at all.

  • A better way to paint your aircraft 2.0 years ago

    Well, it's not so much a performance issue directly as it is an issue with how the game is coded. Currently, there's basically up to four color "slots" for a part (Primary, Trims 1-3). All the game has to know is the color (hex code + metallic + smoothness + emissive shading) for each slot, and it knows exactly how to color the part.


    Having a custom hand-painting option, on the other hand, would require every part to have its own full UV map, which in itself requires more file size and complexity, as well as forcing the game to render said full UV map on every part that is loaded into the level.


    It's not so much as a "this will make the game run slower" issue as it is a "the game engine literally wasn't built to be able to do this" issue.

  • A Small Goodbye... 2.0 years ago

    Look. Just because someone thinks about something a certain way doesn't mean you have to listen to them. You have your own interests and passions, and they have theirs. What they say doesn't have to apply to you, because you don't have to listen to them. Enjoy whatever you want to enjoy (within the limits imposed by the laws in your area of course).


    Also, after reading that profile myself I'm fairly sure that it's meant as more of a meme than a serious threat. Don't take it too seriously.

  • SP funny moments 2.0 years ago

    One that I thought was amusing was a dogfight I had with the AI probably close to a year and a half ago. I shot down the first plane but then had a collision with the second one, which knocked out both of our engines. There was then about a 3 minute gliding dogfight between us, which ended with me shooting the AI down a few feet above the ground right before pancaking in right next to him.

  • Whos better 2.0 years ago

    If you're making a missile equipped with a realistic nuclear warhead, plutonium (specifically Pu-239) would be the best option. It is cheaper and easier to produce than uranium (specifically weapons-grade U-235). Polonium's half-life is too short to be used for any military purposes (weapons need to be manufactured and stored before they are used, after all), and Oganesson has a half-life estimated to be less than a millisecond (and is also far, far too unstable to be produced in any quantity sufficient for weapons use). Radium would in theory result in a more radioactive "dirty bomb"-type missile, but would be a very poor choice for weapons due to its extremely high cost.

  • More wing physics and better tail rotor mechanics. 2.1 years ago

    I’d love to see a update where the wings can flex.

    Already possible using either hinge rotators or just not Wing-2 wings.

    the tail rotor needs to have the ability to control the speed of the rotor so you don’t have to keep your nose down or tail in the air

    The tail rotor (even on real helicopters) doesn't have any control over pitch, so I'm not sure why you're wanting this.
