@EternalDarkness thank you :) there are going to be limits to what I can do being on iOS, but I've got enough time and modded parts to do most things once I figure out how
@EternalDarkness a lot of points come from challenges, but also the sheer quantity of planes. 3 upvotes each on 3 planes a day is 135 points each day. And with low quality builds, churning out that many planes is fairly easy
@KerbalVehiclesCompany space would be difficult, but also it's a plane game. Many things besides planes are made but everything has been in the atmosphere. Introducing new physics and such too implement something they has nothing to do with planes wouldn't be worth the devs time. They were also brainstorming ideas for their next game, one of which was simple rockets 2
What kind was it? If it wasn't like coast guard (idk if you're by the coast) or anything else like that it could just be one practicing landings. C-130s by my house do that fairly often where they just fly around, land, take off, fly around and land again
@Awesomeplanes the front was a pain to do, and i think it'll be above the landing gear when I put the nose gear on, so hopefully it won't make a difference when I'm done
@Awesomeplanes yeah, that's what I thought at first. But it's not even close to centered over the wheels. And it acts as if there is an invisible block underneath the plane bc with enough thrust it tips onto the nose and lifts the wheels off the ground. Throttling down makes it rock back onto the wheels and there is a moment when nothing is touching the ground my only explanation is somehow scaled parts are behind it. This has negative mass on it but the glitch still happens when I remove it
Mobile. And i would stick to around 700 max (give or take). If there's a lot of wings/suspension/other parts that have more complicated physics then a block keep the part out as low as possible bc these lag a TON more than regular parts. If you're making a simple plane that has many fuselage parts for details, you can go all out and most mobiles will still be able to run it just fine. I'd recommend catering to both, bc it's not like PCs can't run mobile sized planes. Your choice either way, but that's just my opinion (I'm on mobile btw)
I nearly choked when I saw 63 new notifications.. Thank you so so so much! I might get actually to gold with only the builds I have already planned now. And i can confirm. 3 days, 3 downloads, 3 crowns on the Swedish insignia. Sweden is illuminati confirmed
I really want a computer for these reasons. Being able to make letters and decals on iOS is cool and all, but it'd be nice to not have to deal with that level of hell anymore
Now if only a nice dev posted something about this... Something recently, that addressed this post in the title.. And explained how this doesn't solve anything..... But I guess this is just wishful thinking
Everyone who doesn't understand it, it's fairly simple to make bots if you know how. Without the cool down get ready for upvote bots everywhere ruining the point system even more
@Dimetrodonscantfly putting dead weight in front is probably the worst way to solve that problem. If it's pitching up you should just rely on trim or see if your main wings need to have symmetric airfoils. Dead weight will just tank the maneuverability and make the plane far heavier than it needs to be
@Mod and it seems the external keyboard trick only works for Android and not iOS. Clipping parts with any degree of effectiveness without nudge is an eye-meltingly tedious process
...can you not pls. Joey just made a forum post about this and it literally does not matter at all. You said yourself that everyone knows that it's the stock plane we don't need to make it a pressing matter when those planes get ignored anyways

@birdsofsteel they see all
@Nickasaurus yeah. This is a direct copy paste of the rules tab. True it's easier to find, but it's mostly entirely unnecessary here
@ACMECo1940 this one
@jfriss I used the DeLorean someone made a while ago
I think I'm the only one who didn't do this in a helicopter lol
@Liquidfox yep, currently working on that right now
@KCferrari yeah I feel. I'm never proud of the early stages of my planes bc they usually look like planes only if you squint really hard
Is that the stupid fast jet car that broke labs speed records and such?I can't remember the name of the top of my head
@DuckMintnewprofile then I think the coast guard would be one of the scarier possibilities if they found themselves all the way out there haha
@arcues there's already boats. They were added in 1.1

@Liquidfox you're spot on!
I live by Moffitt field. C-130's come all the time lol. Usually multiple a day. There's an occasional antonov-124 as well which is pretty awesome

@SHCow oh that's a bummer.
@SHCow didn't they already fix it? I haven't checked but I saw that they talked about it during the 1.4 beta testing
The first one probably won't be added because of scaled parts now, but changing ss would be great!

@zhouzl yeah I know why I can't, I'm just saying it's still awesome
:OOOOO I can't even download it, but just :O

@kukimuki1234 the engines are 1/3 scale, but the flame trail is still the original size which makes it seem x3 bigger than normal
@FLOWRIDER0 because the entire game would need to be re written to make that possible

They'd be pretty sorry. Last I checked modding doesn't work irl lmao

@AmerigoB thank you so much!!
Theoretically you can do it with external volume controls on headphones. I've had no luck with that either
Wow, you nailed it!
What logo is this? It looks really cool
@bspboy I'm on iOS, but nothing I make is stock by a long shot. At this point you can basically find any modded part you need somewhere
...can you not pls. Joey just made a forum post about this and it literally does not matter at all. You said yourself that everyone knows that it's the stock plane we don't need to make it a pressing matter when those planes get ignored anyways
Cool idea, I might do something like this now when I hit gold
@JetstreamAeroEngineering eh probably, I know the lyrics, not the title lol
Why no modding? Hardly anything is ever done stock anymore. I have an amazing off-road but that at least uses scaled parts
Highway to the danger zone is a song. It's in the movie top gun which is about fighter jets and stuff
Have 61 ;)
hugs
It's ! [] (Picture link) but without spaces. And for hyperlinks it's [text] (link) again with no spaces
@Flightsonic there's just been people complaining like usual. Nothing new
@BroPlanes I was just about to suggest burning them at the stake. Nice and old fashioned
Awesome! I'm amazingly jealous of you to have this as your first plane
Man I miss the walrus props. Those were legit
