@RailfanEthan Can't that be said for anyone who plays games? I mean not to be offensive or rude or anything but that sounds a lot like something a boomer would say about gamers. "Oh, why play a flight sim when you can fly actual planes or buy a drone?" I'm personally very interested in military aviation, and aviation in general, but does that mean I'm stupid enough to join the Airforce, Marines, or Navy just to get a chance to fly an actual fighter jet? Answer is no. I love studying and looking at actual military aircraft, and fictional military aircraft. But that isn't something I'm going to risk my life over. Not to mention the fact that a lot of real generals have suggested and done arguably stupid and pointless things, take WWI for example, the entire strategy of that war from 1914-1917 was to charge at the other trench in the hopes you "win" a mile of ground. Not to mention during the Korean War, General Douglas MacArthur, who some consider to be a hero of the second world war, genuinely suggested nuking the border of North Korea and China to halt Chinese troop movements into Korea. Granted, he was promptly demoted to the rank of unemployed, but still. I'd personally rather unsound military strategy be left to online rp forums, rather than actual war rooms, its less liable to get people killed. I play FPS games, and I wouldn't ever consider joining the military, and, while that may sound unpatriotic, my reasoning is simple, war isn't hell, war is worse than hell. Some come home, but they aren't the same, mentally or physically, and some don't come home. The fact of the matter is war is lies. There is no good, there is no evil, there is no us, there is no them. All there is, is pain. To call someone a wuss for not signing up to join the military speaks volumes about yourself, and paints yourself as insecure, once again, I do not mean my words to be abrasive or hurtful, however you clearly did.
@SnoWFLakE0s Is it not a delicate balance between detail and part count? The higher the detail the more parts are needed, negatively impacting performance and thus negatively impacting the success of a build, as those stuck with mobile can't actually run the craft to witness your efforts. In the case if the hull shape being the way it is, you gotta remember the inspirations behind the vehicle, those being interwar French vehicles, a lot of which had this sort of flat, boxy shape to them. Frenchman's build is a more advanced build overall, though Bruher's aircraft is good for a first aircraft.
@AtlasAviation Alright, I have somewhat of a finished product right here.

I don't know whats scarier, the fact its basically a mini killdozer, or the fact it can sink the Jundroo fleet with little to no trouble while its basically a mini killdozer drone.
Nvm that last comment, just use the reconnect tool. Last comment as in the one I posted seconds before this one, if you didn't see it, don't worry about it, just use the reconnect tool on the tip of the strut. Another edit, noticed the bottom things where also wing blocks, same fix as the other wing blocks.
Ok, so, I noticed a few things with the design that may be causing your issues, for one, none of the squadron aircraft have anthing to keep their tails off the ground during takeoff, leading to them kinda derping around on the runway. Two, for the top wing, I noticed you used wing parts to connect the two, this is going to sound wierd, but that does screw with the aerodynamics, instead use structural panels, because the individual wing blocks shift around(because SP physics), it will shift the COL, causing the plane to pitch up or down uncontrollably. One more thing: I'd personally recommend extending the plane so you can add tail landing gear.
Ye, one of the updates broke something with guns and props, really upsetting tho, as before it had a system not unlike the synchronization gear, dunno why they can't make you not shoot out your own propeller
@Randomdoggo So you asked them to stop using a parts mod so that you can use it? Seriously mate, does come off as rather selfish, especially considering the alternative is a drastically higher part count. Could just ask for a version without the mod on future builds.
@spefyjerbf Hes goning to be pissed at the fact someone actually put in effort instead of using a script.
+7Managed to do it better than SledDriver
+5If the transmission doesn't die from a slight incline, its not a true Ferdinand, 0/10, literally usable.
+3Was this ever fixed?
+3Amazing job, don't listen to @Catofthepeople, everyone has to start somewhere.
+2@ThomasRoderick Thats one way to get their attention.

+1Looks kinda like a Scorpion.
+1@Simplemike no problem, great build!
+1Umm snowspeeders don't do that nice model tho
+1Alright
+1Make a clone maybe?
+1Also makes an appearance in MaD2
+1@Falco7 don't need it for this one

Which flanker build is that?
Use structural panels instead of wings for better performance.

@SnoWFLakE0s In terms of detail, I mean. In terms of actual battlefield usefulness...I'd rather drive a German big cat up a slight incline.
@Smashfighter06 But its a decently built tank

I like it, so much in fact, that if its ok with you I'll make a 20mm version.
@Footballdare it is sad the fact it is a joke is lost on you.
@MakarnaliMussolini Could we get a version without mods for mobile players?
The Tsar Rocket, for when you want to make your enemies and their entire bloodline disappear
@Brields95 Install the beta, that should fix the issue
Ah, yes, the T H I C C onov 225.
@757simmer
The point
You
Great build my fellow sentient being.
@AWESOMENESS360 A-10 Thunderbolt II but its actually an upgraded F-15.
@TheFlyingDerp Understandable, have a nice day.
Tfw Canada purchases a budget Scorpion
@Techydounut bruh.
Why does that front section look familiar...
Edit: Nvm, great build, man! Thought the cockpit area looked a lot like one of FlightDynamic's posts, hense the comment.
Did you just paint it blue and call it something else?
Wee suggestion for the future, set the scale property for the connectors of the planes to something so very small it'll be practically unnoticeable.
I don't know whats scarier, the fact its basically a mini killdozer, or the fact it can sink the Jundroo fleet with little to no trouble while its basically a mini killdozer drone.

@prankstergangster360 No problem, mate, no mistakes in your response either, my dude.

What do you mean by "pink laser"? Like a laser sight or...?
@mikoyanster Ah, makes sense, looks like an interesting map tho.
@mikoyanster Your map is bugged I think, all it shows is black.
@Randomdoggo So you asked them to stop using a parts mod so that you can use it? Seriously mate, does come off as rather selfish, especially considering the alternative is a drastically higher part count. Could just ask for a version without the mod on future builds.
@Russkiy98 No problem!
@Russkiy98 To fix the bouncing issue, put a detatcher at the bottom and scale appropriately
@Randomdoggo I mean thats a wee bit selfish.
