@32 You want a link to it?
I can share it, but I'd remove the create tag button first, since it could cause a mess with a bunch of people creating tags for everything.
The singular alga is the Latin word for 'seaweed' and retains that meaning in English.[15] The etymology is obscure. Although some speculate that it is related to Latin algēre, 'be cold',[16] no reason is known to associate seaweed with temperature. A more likely source is alliga, 'binding, entwining'.[17]
The Ancient Greek word for 'seaweed' was φῦκος (phŷkos), which could mean either the seaweed (probably red algae) or a red dye derived from it. The Latinization, fūcus, meant primarily the cosmetic rouge. The etymology is uncertain, but a strong candidate has long been some word related to the Biblical פוך (pūk), 'paint' (if not that word itself), a cosmetic eye-shadow used by the ancient Egyptians and other inhabitants of the eastern Mediterranean. It could be any color: black, red, green, or blue.[18]
Accordingly, the modern study of marine and freshwater algae is called either phycology or algology, depending on whether the Greek or Latin root is used. The name fūcus appears in a number of taxa.

This is about only the word, I couldn't find who "invented" it, but if you want I can find who discovered it as well.
@BeastHunter @Randomplayer Won't be doing much with this one, I can't imagine the devs will leave it as-is for long and creating more tags would just increase their workload when they inevitably remove all of them.
@32 Nah it ain't hacking, just a feature the devs couldn't bother removing for normal users for some reason, all I did was make a button to trigger it.
@PlaneFlightX Damn that's a lot, guessing it won't be done for another year or two.
It'll probably rise to the best of all time page pretty fast when you post it though.
@Dracul0Anderson Odd. I imagine their creators also deleted them, I don't see any reason for those posts to get removed by the mods or devs.
Also I didn't get notified of your tag for some reason, did you mispell it then correct it by editing? If so that's why, tags only work when you first send the comment.
@32 It is sad, I wish the points weren't a thing, or were at least replaced by a post counter or something, so people could just focus on making cool stuff instead of what other people think of said stuff.
I wonder why the devs added the system in the first place, does it actually help encourage people to play? I've only seen the opposite effect.
@32 See anything funny?
And yeah it does work, works with any posts, but only the creator of the post can see edit links like tags or images.
Sole exception is the "/Forums/Edit/" links, which also work for every post and are visible as read-only to other users.
I mean, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't all this like basic stuff planes have? Every plane is built to be as aerodynamic as possible, without vertical stabilizers all planes are unstable, most fighters now have HUDs.
I think AI has some ways to go before it can make convincing stories, though it's pretty funny seeing it hype up things that every plane already does.
Edit: Paying more attention some of this stuff is actually unique, but most of it isn't.
@RepublicOfCursedPlanes There are only about 30 100k+ players on the Users page, do those numbers include deleted accounts like Tully2001? If so how did you get them?
@ColonelCanada Oh uh...
One minute everyone, I gotta make a call real quick. old_flip_phone_1.ogg
*Tell the sniper team to fire.* old_flip_phone_2.ogg
Anyways... In a few seconds this won't be a problem anymore I think, we may need to find new customers elsewhere though.
My guess is that most people will look at an F-15 and a custom plane, see the custom plane as some weird bootleg and download the F-15.
Edit: Oh you mean quantity not downloads, no idea then.
Yes, though it's mostly because over time the stuff I make got too complicated to be fun.
My first plane using fuselage blocks took 3 days to make, my last one took 3 months according to the backup post date. It takes really long to add everything I learned over time to a plane.
Maybe I should try going back to building simpler stuff, it's really not worth all this effort just so a plane can look nicer.
Turns out the option to create post tags works just fine for regular users if you can figure out how to get the menu to open. Proof
Might want to fix that one lol
@32 Here you go, also included the link on my bio.
@32 Not sure where to upload it though, you think GitHub is fine? (It's what WNP78 used for his script)

@Kangy Interesting.
Good ol' silver, looks better than the orange "gold" rank imo.
@Kangy Nope, doesn't work anymore. Upvotes previously given to unlisteds still stay, but you can't add any more.
@BeastHunter @Randomplayer Won't be doing much with this one, I can't imagine the devs will leave it as-is for long and creating more tags would just increase their workload when they inevitably remove all of them.
+2@PlaneFlightX Yeah, I can't possibly imagine a reason for it. None at all.
+1Most of these actually work btw, sole exception is the upvote buttons for unlisted posts, which used to work but were patched out.

@XxRxX Engines ignore negative values, so clamping isn't necessary.

There is an AoA property?

@Dracul0Anderson ?
Can you give an example? I only recall one of them disappearing, and it was because the creator deleted it.
@PlaneFlightX How's the plane coming along btw? Is it like, 80% done?
Looks ugly but it's the only option afaik:
or
Kinda like chaining a bunch of if else statements, but it becomes very hard to read very fast.
I heard you can add them over multiple lines like this:
But I haven't tested it so idk if it really works.
More effort for minimal change, I can only see this being useful if you make a SAM with 30 missiles or something.
@32 This is what pops up when I click it
You know that weird tag you used on your bomb? Ever wonder why there are so few posts using it?

@32 gimme a minute, I'll boot up my pc to take a screenshot rq
@32 Watching me? Impossible, the weird design choices I find on this website are far too vast and random for anyone to guess what I'll show off next.
For example, did you know you can add a description to videos just like in forums? But they aren't visible since videos don't use descriptions.
You can also add tags to your biography, but I don't know how to see them.
Does that work?
@32 I think you weren't in the tag list, maybe that's the reason?

Cool dinosaur, it's pretty detailed.
Kind of cute as well.
@WADA I haven't posted a plane in 3 months.
And idk, maybe a Cirrus SR22? It's a nice plane.
@BeastHunter They updated the rules as well, rickrolling can get you banned now.
