Ok, this would be great, except for one important question (yes I’m pouring cold water again): do we need these?
Is there a point in being able to see the newest mods? Unlike airplanes, mods don’t essentially change; you can’t just add new features to a mod because they all run on the same Unity engine. And here’s the thing: “new” doesn’t always equate to “good”. What matters is that you are able to see the highest-rated mods, so that you know which ones are good.
Having a “Hottest” user sounds good, but remember, quantity does not equal quality.
Using the system you mentioned to calculate, if a user posted 3 planes every day with 10 upvotes per build, he would also appear on the ‘Hottest Users’ page!This undermines those who post high-quality builds, but take a month to build them! If this system is implemented, users who are actually good may never appear on the page, because their monthly points aren’t enough to compete with users who post every day!
And such inequalities in the user base may cause even skilled builders to ask: quality or quantity? Instead of spending time and effort on builds, they may instead mass-post low-quality builds in order to farm points and appear on the “Hottest Users” page! This would be the death of good builds!
And lastly, this is meant to be a sandbox game, not a social media platform. I know that in fact, this website is essentially social media, and the reason we are all here is to gain popularity. But I personally think that our passion of building and flying planes should be our main driving factor for being here, and popularity should remain as a side goal.
Okay, I know that I tend to rant a lot whenever I see something controversial. However, this does not mean that I hate you or anything. I’m just sharing my opinion on the situation, and if you agree with this, feel free to reply. But I’m open to being convinced if you really have violent objections to my stand.
@NAFASIRO the website is not breaking, since I haven’t encountered any issues using it yet. For the guy who raised it up, it’s probably just network issues
@MrCOPTY if you want all those new features, SP2 will have to be a completely new game.
Although, my other comment explains how it might be possible, though we still will need to build all of the flight functions from scratch.
@winterro your phone may be powerful, but there are still a ton of people who own literal bricks of smartphones, and can’t afford new ones. And since the devs don’t want to leave them behind and make SP “exclusive” to richer people with better devices, it’s unlikely that they’ll roll out an overhaul even if it can be done within the means of the 8-year old game engine.
@Pilotgoose there isn’t really a “best” fictional nation; there’s no way to determine which one is the best since it’s subjective.
Anyway, you should know what mine is lol
if you want to learn how to make fuselage planes, just go online and search "how to make xxx in simpleplanes", and you'll find many, many tutorials from old forum posts and YouTube videos. Many people make the mistake of not using the treasure trove of resources on the Internet, and because they can't learn, their builds can't improve.
To get attention on your builds, use custom thumbnails instead of screenshots taken in the designer. Here's me explaining how to do that.
Also, I recommend that you edit your screenshots; every smartphone should have a default photo-editing function. If you use it right, you can make awesome thumbnails.
Get a profile picture. Even though it doesn't change much, it still makes you look like the type of guy that puts effort into SP.
That's the advice I have, I hope you'll use it to pursue your goal. Good luck!
@Nasafan9999 all 5th-gen jets look similar, how do you want it to be different? Will you only be contented if this plane has laser guns, VTOL engines and all that kind of stuff?

+3@CobrasFumantes use this tutorial.
+3Also, use Overload to set the door’s
disableAircraftCollisionstofalse. That should solve it.@TinyMaus anything controversial is bound to have people ranting in the comments.
+3Also the update thing’s kinda been resolved already
@Karzigg it’s out of Jundroo’s control; blame Google and Apple for not having mod support.
+3@ArrayDenalov time travel
+3Here before the comments section turns into war (no offence)
+3Technically, the Space Shuttle is the world's fastest aircraft, since it re-enters Earth's atmosphere at 17,500mph (28,163kmph), almost Mach 25
+3@The26thMeowng we extend our most sincere condolences to all the relatives of the deceased for this… unfortunate tragedy
+3Adding to @ArrayDenalov, there’s 1 day left in the sale, so if you want the PC game for a lower price, now is the chance…

A couple things I suggest:

+3Shouldn’t the bridge be connected to land?
+3Or has San Francisco finally sunk because of climate change?
I mean it's a historical replica, so it should be fine

@MrCOPTY
The helicopter cockpit actually looks alright being a truck cab
+3Well at least this one doesn't look like it's going to implode...

+3—press here—>Ok<—press here—
Oh so that's what it looks like
+3For a second I thought it was upside down lol
+3E-Jet but bigger lol
+3Very nice, if I could spotlight this I absolutely would
AHHHHHH UNSEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
+3@SheriffHackdogMCPE nope; SP is the only game I ever spent money on
+3What is it with a bunch of prominent gold users getting banned at the same time
+3This is why you play SP, you get to enjoy both games at once!
