I used to think that setting an object's mass to zero would have the same effect but unfortunately it's still the same thing. You could try determining the detaching part's total mass and using a thruster to counteract the weight.
Eg:
Part is 10 Kg
10 kg × 9.81 (acc due to grav)
98.1 Newtons
And a simple engine is
15,000 Newtons of thrust so you divide 98.1 by the 15000 Newtons and you'd get 0.00654
You then place that number on the max input of the engine.
@PilotAlex1010 I can agree with what you say that sometimes when we put effort in our build, it won't get noticed by many. I mean, look at my builds HAHAHA but still keep posting man. You're gonna eventually keep getting better and people will eventually notice your builds~
Slight warning! Sometimes it bugs when you restart. The bug is that it turns the entire screen black except for the controls, altitude, throttle, etc. I'm not sure of the reason for this, but if anyone can find out, please do tell me how to fix it. It can be restarted again though and it turns out fine
SP, but lets say I'm spawned in with everything I've downloaded scattered across the map...
I'd be lucky to find the Gundam Unicorn if all the Titans from AoT, Groudon & Kyogre, kaijus, and other gigantic robots/creatures don't find me first. And yeah I guess my 3 supersonic planes with nukes in em surely won't target me first right?
@Randomplayer That depends actually. If you fly off to a very far away place with no islands nearby, then you'll only see the locations you added. No need for searching
@Sunkray You can customize dogfights in sandbox by using the tip I gave below this comment.
But yeah, It would be fun to customize in the dogfight option. Maybe in SP2
@Randomplayer A great tip for that is to actually fly around and do the "Add Current Location" in the air, and then just spawn your AI enemy there after you get away~ careful though, depending on how fast you were flying when adding the location, that is the speed on which the AI will spawn
I used to think I had to release a new build every few weeks or so a few years ago. But now I just take my time and enjoy the builds as much as I can before I upload them. And by enjoy, I mean test the heck out of it. Sometimes I discover new ideas after I post something though and I end up applying those new techniques to my next build instead! But Quality does take lots of time.
@Thebestpiloteh I can't XD It's just a random concept I blurted out on the spot ( T u T)
Maybe you can just do a spaceship! Just create what you feel like making!
Pacific Rim = Big Heavy robots
Gurren Lagann = Smol agile robots
And, both are just as unrealistic and by what you say as appealing is subjective. Also, I can't really say that one is better than the other. I love pacific rim. I also love Gurren Lagann. Why do we have to compare the two? It's fine that you're grounded by reality and it's rules, but don't just dismiss us who prefer things that aren't.
@Graingy These are a different weight class from Pacific Rim, not to mention that Pacific Rim was inspired from old Japanese movies of Robots vs Kaijus
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Hmm... That's a bit too much effort to detach them both and have different functions. ( T ^T)7
I am gonna cram as much function as itself though! I'll try to give it abilities That's close enough to the anime but I'm not that good with FT
YUUSS another Macross build!!
T
Can I play Genshin on it?
+1That... that's just cool!!!

@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I was gonna guess dio from the knives and stop time XD
Although you'd need a gyro to balance the thruster upright. I use this method as a hover system since I can't really figure out PID's yet

@Majakalona Indeed it is a plane game. This flies. It's considered a plane ( > 3<)/
+1@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Indeed I have!! The part count is at least less than 900 atm 🤣
Looks awesome!!

Man, you shouldn't really log off cuz nobody cares about what you post. Just post it anyway dude! There are some people who'll like it!

Do you happen to be color purple and wearing a broken bunny animatronic suit?
+1EYYY LETS GOO!!!
Btw! That spinny gun thingy.... Can you make a drill out of it? I am looking to make a large drill that appears out of thin air
SimpleMechs. Oh please please please for the love of all, someone make this T ^T
Amazing edit dude!
@ShinyGemsBro Yuuuu you can do it!
OOOH BOIII!
Time to shoot this zhongli with zhongli 🤣.
I use the zhongli to destroy the zhongli
@Dracul0Anderson which Gundam series? I'm currently on Stardust Memory
@Graingy Weight class:

Congratulations on 4 years! I'm almost 6 years now too! Dang. Time flies by so fast!

@Graingy Over the top is basically the entire plot of the anime that this bot is from so I'll take that as a compliment~
On my phone? My girlfriend
+4On my laptop? Kyogre
Either way, I'm dead
Dude! Going through the predecessors makes it feel like I'm watching the development of the ship! Pretty great!
I drink the egg
Also!! You can put the tag "Mech" on this~
