  • VTOL Spitfire 4.5 years ago

    @rexzion Legend has it the designers were having some very strong tea the night before they took to the drawing board.

  • VTOL Spitfire 4.5 years ago

    @Ryn176 The pilot has no forward vision. But obviously that's just a small price to pay for VTOL performance. The VTOLFire is otherwise an excellent aircraft.

    Or they could come standard with the game, now that would be great.

    Everything is good except the prop, it's way too small.

  • Do you ever feel bad for the ship builders? 4.6 years ago

    Pretty sad yea. Airplanes will always be the masterrace.

    Auf der Heide blüht ein kleines Blümelein
    Und das heißt:
    Erika.
    Heiß von hunderttausend kleinen Bienelein
    Wird umschwärmt:
    Erika
    Denn ihr Herz ist voller Süßigkeit,
    Zarter Duft entströmt dem Blütenkleid.
    Auf der Heide blüht ein kleines Blümelein
    Und das heißt:
    Erika.
    In der Heimat wohnt ein blondes Mägdelein
    Und das heißt:
    Erika.
    Dieses Mädel ist mein treues Schätzelein
    Und mein Glück,
    Erika.
    Wenn das Heidekraut rot-lila blüht,
    Singe ich zum Gruß ihr dieses Lied.
    Auf der Heide blüht ein kleines Blümelein
    Und das heißt:
    Erika.
    In mein'm Kämmerlein blüht auch ein Blümelein
    Und das heißt:
    Erika.
    Schon beim Morgengrau'n sowie beim Dämmerschein
    Schaut's mich an,
    Erika.
    Und dann ist es mir, als spräch' es laut:
    "Denkst du auch an deine kleine Braut?"
    In der Heimat weint um dich ein Mägdelein
    Und das heißt:
    Erika.

  • Is Simpleplanes multiplayer dieing? 4.6 years ago

    It's been dead for quite a while but everyone keeps saying it's more alive than ever

  • a smol confession 4.6 years ago

    @Randomdoggo 5G is nothing more than a bunch of high frequency radio waves carrying data. Although the radiation is not good for you, there is no way it could magically spawn a virus. Would be very interesting if it could though.

  • Soon™ 4.6 years ago

    Epic

  • a smol confession 4.6 years ago

    5G is a horrible idea though. The strength of the signal declines so quickly with distance that you'll need poles every few hundred meters (significantly influenced by obstructions). It will only be good for very localized applications and very expensive.

  • Boeing 747-8F UPS [5X] N611UP 4.6 years ago

    Never liked the 747, but the replica is really good.

  • SimplePlanes - Subscriptions 4.7 years ago

    Wings should be paid DLC obviously. Currently, it's way too easy to go flying and that bothers me. Every user just gets to make an aircraft that flies which is highly unrealistic.

  • What I want to see in SimplePlanes2 - megathread 4.7 years ago

    This is brilliant, but I like this:
    - Removal of the max angular velocity limit, which is currently set to 7 radians per second or about 66 rpm.
    - Heat damage to the character
    - Different fuels with different properties
    - Combustion simulation inside engines
    - Carbon monoxide poisoning on the character as a result of incomplete combustion
    - Turbo blowoff valves (PSHHHHHH-TFUTFUTFUtfufufu sound)
    - Engine temperature management, liquid-cooling or air-cooling
    - KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System)
    - Modular ICU (Integrated Control Unit) for engines
    - Customizable props that can be mounted on engines separately. The props make sound based on blade count, diameter, pitch, rpm etc. The sound drastically changes above supersonic tip speeds, or when they are in the wake of another propeller (like in a contra-rotating layout)
    - Propwash, jetblast, wake vortices.
    - A gearbox
    - Hydraulics, fuel lines, mechanical control lines if necessary. The choice to have hydraulic assistance for ailerons (If you don't they can lock up at high speeds).
    - Electrical wires
    - Hydrogen fuel cells
    - Different types of storage tanks rated for a certain pressure, will explode if exceeded.
    - When a plane crashes, fuel spills everywhere and mixes with the air. Explodes in a fuel-air explosion when the mixture is ignited. Ignition sources could include: sparks, violent metal deformation releasing heat, heat from friction, extreme pressure and short-circuits.
    - Boat props
    - Terrain destruction
    - Intake condensation
    - Vibration caused by engines, could be dampened with shocks.
    - Delta P (pressure differential, could be a low pressure zone in front of a jet engine)

  • Update 1.9.205 4.7 years ago

    I want:
    - Lights that actually produce light
    - Customizable bombs
    - A propfan engine
    - A gas turbine/turboshaft that you can link to other parts (so it can actually turn a shaft)
    - Longer smoke trails when a part is on fire
    - 3D clouds
    - Easily mounted cockpit instruments and prefabricated instrument panels that can be connected to sensors for input.
    - A stuka siren
    - Incendiary weapons
    - Megawatt-class lasers
    - Railguns
    - Underwater physics and scenery
    - Better engine sounds
    - Better explosions
    - An FPS controller that can hop in and out of aircraft
    - Ambient sounds of nature
    - Weather systems
    - Lightning
    - More islands to explore
    - Trees, grass, rocks
    - Rivers and waterfalls
    - Motion blur, vignette
    - Nuclear warheads
    - Modular engines (Make your own engines like a V12 or boxer-6)
    - Funky Trees aileron controls
    - Funky Trees target position and player position
    - Actual volcanic activity at krakabloa
    - A kraken that can be killed
    - More realistic fire that spreads across the aircraft
    - Buildings, cities
    - Bird strikes
    - Glass
    - Electric motor with variable torque and max rpm (resulting power will be displayed)
    - Batteries
    - Jet streams at 40,000 ft
    - 3D part explosions (no more sprites)
    - Customizable break force and break torque for parts
    - Switches/handles and other logic that you can hover over with your mouse in-flight and manipulate (like a throttle lever)
    - Condensation over wings
    - Dust being kicked up by engines at high power
    - An ATC that (among other things) informs you of weather conditions.

    @semk You can see in the video.

  • Zeus Dive Bomber/Fighter MK1 4.7 years ago

    What may be even more brilliant than the plane itself is how you managed to keep the part count so low. Truly a masterpiece, that's all I can say.

  • Kraken vs Fly Carrier 4.7 years ago

    @Code So I guess it just bounced off?

  • Shark Tooth REDO! 4.7 years ago

    @Adityo0502 The T3000 actually has a higher power/weight ratio than the T1000. 1000 HP at 250 kg vs 3000 HP at 650 kg. The small heli rotor is by far the best though with 2500 HP at 225 kg.

  • Human stupidity amuses me 4.7 years ago

    Those pictures is just the google algorithm showing random pictures from a page that probably also contains the correct image. Those videos are truly horrendous though.

    @pura 1210 km/h on high physics

  • Stock prop challenge results 4.8 years ago

    @robloxweponco Your speeds were also the same in km/h, so I had to make a judgement based on efficiency.

  • Stock prop challenge results 4.8 years ago

    @robloxweponco Or add 5 more. You got extremely close, had your entry been 1 km/h faster I wouldn't have had to factor in efficiency and you would've been 1st
    place. Congrats on 2nd nonetheless.

  • Fuel Consumption Rates? 4.8 years ago

    Found these values for fuelConsumptionRate in the part modifier properties while modding:

    T1000 - 0.11
    T2000 - 0.4
    T3000 - 0.7
    Blasto J15 - 0.4
    Blasto J50 - 1.5
    Blasto J90 - 2.1
    Blasto VTOL - 1.75
    BFE150 - 4.0
    BFE300 - 4.5

    Not sure about the units, I'm guessing it's in gallons/sec.
