Indeed looks cool
For anyone who wants to try this, open the plane you want on sp, click [3D Print / Export], click [Export], then go here, open the obj file that was exported, don't pick a texture file (its the png on the same folder as the obj file), once it loads click on the thing on the left menu that looks like the First Order symbol. It should show up like this.
The game doesn't actually simulate airflow so yeah you can't do most of those things
I guess you could probably do gears with FT but idk the code for it
Some code from a plane I made, should work for what you want I think:
ceil(smooth(clamp01(!GearDown), 1 / 3)) - floor(smooth(clamp01(!GearDown), 1 / 2))
When lowering the landing gear, this code will open the door, wait 3 seconds, then close.
When raising the gear, it does the same thing but will wait 2 seconds instead.
To change how long it waits in both cases, just change 3 and 2 to whatever number of seconds you want.
Open throttle in overload, go to PosedGrip, change previewPose to Right.
If you mean mirroring the actual throttle lever, I don't think you can do that.
Using -1 for the scale seems to work, but it places the lever a little off from the hand preview, so I imagine it'd look that way in VR as well.
Attention everyone! As... most of you probably don't know actually, KL Aviation has declared bankruptcy a few months ago, and no longer builds new aircraft.
However, we still have a massive stock of unsold aircraft, about 1000 Fishtails and 500 Jackpots.
So we, purely out of the goodness of our hearts and definitely not in an attempt to get rid of the competition like a certain oil company from the late 1800s, have decided to sell each of them for a fixed price of $1.
That's right! Just one dollar, and you can get yourself the latest in private aircraft technology, or even start your own airline company!*
Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta go before those pesky lawyers start rambling about "unfair practices" or "tax evasion" again, see ya!
* you'll still need all the legal paperwork, fuel, staff and other expenses to maintain an airline company, we only sell the planes.
Tweaking airplanes is okay
It is okay to download someone else's airplane, make some tweaks, and re-upload a new variation.
In fact, the original designer may even receive bonus points.
However, if your variation does not offer any improvements over the existing airplane, then it may be removed.
If you are circumventing the predecessor/successor system, then you will be banned. Never upload a successor as an original design; give credit to the designer of its predecessor.
If you'd really rather not have people do that, you should add something in your biography page like "If you want to upload a modified version of one of my planes, ask for permission first".
I always thought chaff prevented planes from locking onto you, and flares had a chance to make missiles miss you after they're fired. Is that not the case?
@MTindustries @XxRxX IIRC the modding package requires Unity version 2020.3.26f1 specifically, other versions will just show you an error.
Maybe that's the problem?
@LM0418 The error is probably due to the post being made by an anonymous account, though I'm not sure why that would break comments.
The HTML gibberish you see when trying to comment is actually the code for this page. For some reason, if the error is triggered when trying to comment, the website will alert it instead of redirecting you to the page.
I wonder if there are more of those anonymous posts, I have yet to see any other than the Corsair.
@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.
From the rules page, the part mentioning politics:
Please, remember that this is a game about airplanes.
Political discussions are removed because they are in no way related to aviation and only serve to spark angry comment wars, not because the website owners want to infringe on your rights or whatever.
If you went to a forum about Minecraft for example I imagine they'd do the same, you should post this on Facebook or some other social media.
Also, not everyone here is from the US.
This reminded me my old account is still following virtually everyone here
I wonder how many unread posts are in its jetstream, probably over 20k by now
@ColonelCanada It flies fairly well but nothing in the cockpit seems to do anything, is that intentional? If it wasn't meant for VR you could've just added glass shaped like a canopy since that's normally easier to do, take a look at my F-15 or ReinMcDeer's planes for some examples.
The plane also wobbles a bit on landing so I guess you can't just hold down the brake button as soon as you touch the runway, not entirely sure how that could be fixed though, might be due to the main gear wheels being too close together.
Anyways, it's a nice plane, it doesn't take off in 5 seconds and controls very well, I'd spotlight it if I could.

I like the pickup, T on that one

You know what'd make this post really great? Adding 8 backticks in sequence somewhere in it.

@CalabooseCal wizardry
+1Amateurs.
+1Jokes aside, I don't think it's a good idea to mess too much with this since only devs can remove tags.
Yup. From the site rules:
If you'd really rather not have people do that, you should add something in your biography page like "If you want to upload a modified version of one of my planes, ask for permission first".
+1hmm
+1Btw you can only tag 3 people per comment, any more don't get a notification.
+1I always thought chaff prevented planes from locking onto you, and flares had a chance to make missiles miss you after they're fired. Is that not the case?
+1Lower maxImput to 0.1, then increase the powerMultiplier to 10x it's value.

Somehow you managed to kill a secret enemy, probably with some super strong bomb since it's a really fast (like supersonic) boat that's hard to find
+1What would that fix be? It is quite annoying to have random gaps on your plane as you save and reload it.
+1@PlaneFlightX Yeah, I can't possibly imagine a reason for it. None at all.
+1Your fleet is no match for a suspicious civilian airplane
+1Combat capabilities? Laser time!
+1(or massive-lag-and-crash time, depends on the texture quality)
@RepublicOfCursedPlanes Huh. Must've confused the amount of posts per page with user posts pages, nevermind then.

@BeastHunter They updated the rules as well, rickrolling can get you banned now.

@32 Nope. My PC is about as good as the average phone from 2 years ago, I doubt the game would even boot up anymore after installing that.
+1Cannot convert null to 'bool' because it is a non-nullable value type
+1Hey do you have time to test something in VR?
+1That's 16 times the amount I have, I think you won't need another upgrade for a few decades
