@starmango It takes quite some time for the devs working to get a deleted account back. There's a kind of automated data trashing process that immediately starts once an account is deleted. They had to stop that process and check whether everything I posted is still in place, then return my account to being visible on the site.

No gun. Your a stealth fighter, if you get into a situation where you need a gun, then you currently have a case of skill issue and the proper treatment would be getting good
Gents, in this world where missiles and jammers are aplenty, sometimes a Fox 3 up theirs won't just make the cut. Sometimes, the best way to let someone know that they're not meant to be in the air, is to get right on them and violently caress their fuselage with a well placed wall of cannon shells. Not to mention it's the cheapest weapon in your arsenal too.
When life gives you ball, make it bounce.
If it doesn't, rethink your life.

If it's just a single ball and it's right between your legs, you're half a man.
If you're a lady who has one, you're a Chernobyl disaster mutant.

That's what I'm saying. That one should stop caring about how many points they'll get or should expect to get high points "for all that effort" and just build what they desire with care and passion, not letting the fame and numbers get into their heads.
Cause in the end, all these thousands of points won't yield you anything of actual use in this site and community other than the attention that you got for being a great/decent builder. Good on you if you get recognized, but don't let the increased popularity affect your general way of doing stuff.
.
Just enjoy the process. People love what you made after you submit them? Good for you. I understand some people change overtime and some use this kind of popularity as their drive to get better, but I'm just putting this out for the new ones who are aiming to be good builders. You can make the derpiest build you could ever cobble together and people will either like it or hate it. It won't matter. As long as you built something and you enjoyed it, you're okay. Just don't break the rules.
.
You want to improve? Go right ahead. You need help improving? There's a ton of veteran users out here willing to lend a hand, and a ton of examples to study that might help you chisel your own designs the way you want it to be. Just don't rely on points for validation in this community, cause you already have been valid in the first place.
Just a little suggestion for you:
Try using the non-functional second gun as a tracer simulator like how I did with the modified version of this. The tracer gun won't deal any damage since it's just meant to imitate spacing between the lit rounds, and the actual gun that fires has a grey/dark grey and very downscaled bulletScale which does the real damage
@IceCraftGaming That or implement a new fuselage paint system
Can't deny that there'll be those who'll paint an obvious penis on the sides of their jets but the moderators are here for a reason-
As far as I know, not really. You can just position two of the same cannons together in one spot, with the other having a higher firerate than the first, but same name and everything.
And to avoid the look of the wonky barrel recoil since you have two cannons overlapping, just make a custom recoil system (If you need to) using fuselage blocks and shock/suspension part, and disable the barrel recoil on both cannons.
.
But then again, this defeats the function of linked ammo count. Since it's two separate guns with their own shells. In conclusion, It's not possible so far
.
You can do this with the minigun and stock wing gun though. Just merge the guns together in one spot and have one weapon be linked to an AG to simulate faster firerate., and make sure disableAircraftCollision is set to true so the guns won't wreck each other when firing or if you plan the weapon to be inside a fuselage.
Even the throttle split move to out-turn the Felon doesn't make sense. The F-14A's sucky engines could barely get the fighter to recover energy after it turned unless it was in a dive. Doing that stunt while on a climb and at low airspeed wouldn't do anything.
.
And, even if the engines were strong enough like those in later models of the Tomcat, doing the split throttle and hard yaw would just basically be asking for you to run into a flat spin or just outright stall the jet since the engine placement is real far apart from each other.
.
The point above is proven by this video made by @Griffon1 . I know SP physics are balls but the bad general idea of pedal turning with split throttle is shown
I pray the smoothskins won't make a big deal out of this because another Ghost of Kyiv build popped up again. Would be disappointing if this gets taken down out of people bringing politics once more Speaking from experience here. My MiG-29A with the Ghost livery got removed by mods due to the severe abuse of the report system by a ton of people who made a mess out of it
@OkaNieba User got banned. Checked account and they don't exist anymore
@PriyanshuGM Cope with what you have. People like what I do. Otherwise they would have complained to high hell already (which the mods will highly likely ignore cause nothing I post violates the rules)
.
Seriously you need to be more open instead of staying in your own little world thinking you're the better/superior one just because you dislike something the other guy does.
. imagine getting 20k points with only putting anime girl liveries on someone else's aircraft
According to majority of your posts, you do the exact same. Modifying other people's builds. You and I aren't any different, really. We both slap shit onto builds, post them, and people appreciate it.
. also naming the variant wrong.
Honestly would people really care at this point when it's already out there? I get that the UPG is a hunchback and with many other details, but don't forget. That was RD's build, he intends to keep it simple, and I will too. Besides, what difference would it even make other than aesthetics?
@Viperonursix You not appreciating an opinion from others just makes you look like an ingrate and close-minded when I'm saying truths. Sergio makes builds that are near accurate in terms performance and size. Mistakes happen here and there and the case of his Barracuda being agile for an attack plane is an example.
.
He won't make a 9G B-52 that can outmaneuver and outrun fighters. He can if he wanted to. But this is about builds being almost historically and operationally identical to the real thing.
.
If you wanted this dive bomber to be more maneuverable, do it yourself and modify the elevators to have a higher deflection angle so it would suit your needs. Creators won't answer the minority requests most of the time unless it's really needed or what the majority asks for is absurd.
.
I shouldn't need to explain to you since you look like you're smarter than how you present yourself with your argument. But from the looks of things, seemed like I had to. Don't take it as me berating your intelligence because of your response.
.
You want an F-14 in generic black and red paintjob? YOU make an F-14 in that said black and red paintjob. I don't know what you need specifically, and I don't do requests. It's just a recolor you wanted? There's a shit ton of Tomcats on the site. Dig through them, find what you want, give it a new coat of paint, call it a day.
@Viperonursix I could care less about your appreciation to a reply. I said what I needed to say, and it was a direct answer. I didn't need to repeat when it's already clear that dedicated dive bombers were never maneuverable at all. This build reflects that, and is accurate.
.
Let's end it at that.
