@SledDriver Re: privacy, I'm merely a NIPRnet and SIPRnet user, who launched dozens of those satellites for special customers: that could see your backyard only IF tasked to do so. At home on the commercial InterWeb, I experiment with TOR, not finding it too useful at the moment. It may come in handy when Apple/Microsoft/Google/Amazon engines encroach too close for comfort.
@SledDriver Thanks for the XPPlorer product advice, I'll look into it. For XML file attribute editing, I prefer native applications which do not require Javascript. This screen resolution is fine for me - the 4K is a neat feature, like 3D TV. This darn PC thing comes with VR support, so I guess I could walk outdoors bumping into things with a VR headset.
@SledDriver Yeah, I admit it, the laptop requirement narrowed the search for a Win 10 device. A 17 inch display MacBook Pro remains in the future rumor mils, and previous Mac laptops I had were technical disapoinments.
@SledDriver Yes, the Win 10 is brand new to me, a former UNIX system admin. Yes, Explorer/Edge stuff must be circumvented to really use a new Win 10 device, IMHO. I use Firefox, TOR, and a VPN on the new device. Device has the i9 CPU Core and an overclocked Nvidia GTx 1080, with a screen rate of 1440. On a laptop. All Jundroo XML files are visible for my builds. I presume your code editor is command line. Only Notepad is built-in. the file manager is clunky. Where can I find a replacement File Editor?
Appreciate the Update Notice @AndrewGarrison ! Will the SR2 Release finally include Keplar's model of planetary motion, so that a Potential Purchasher like myself can launch from the Moon to Uranus? [FYI, my old SimpleRockets on Apple and Android tablets enable me to to that.]
@SledDriver I hear you. That may be necessary in a few days. "HW" is all that PC sellers boost as selling points. The sales BS given by Frye's tech folks is that Win 10 is the same on their products. Wrong. I have defeated the Win 10 Dell security and installed my own firewall/VPN software. The Edge Browser is clunky and slow. The user and system files are the main concern. A simpler laptop, required for the smaller footprint, is another option.
Arrgh! Similar here. My Dell has an "Alienware" umbrella over all User and System files.
∞Time will tell...I've already had do disable Dell's Security Guard just to install Firefox, just to download everyone's SimplePlane's website builds.
There is no pathname for &userprofiles% nor for \AppData\ on my Dell
∞ I may leave the xml attributes modding to others who have older PC, Android, or OSX OS systems. Hah!
iOS no way. Also, Google Pixel android accesses video and photo files, but no system file access allowed. My custom subassemblies are on iOS.
From Andrew Garrison, at one time OSX allowed system file access to Jundroo files, which vanished when updates from Steam placed all Jundroo OSX files inside a locked Unity folder. Per Andrew (although the Mac pathnames were nonexistent):
∞ Meantime, I'll transfer files from an old iOS tablet and old Android tablet to a new Alienware 17 R5 laptop. All items you see in my Posted profile have multiple full test bodys in subassemblies on iOS or Android tablets.

∞ I am starting to remove several Posted builds since the models that once performed okay on an old iPad get shredded under common maneuvers on my faster hi-physics PC.
@SledDriver
Yeah...Just starting, yesterday. Example, all items you see in my POSTED profile have more than 1 full bodys in subassemblies on iOS and Android. This was one of hundreds of unposted builds. I am removing several Posted builds since the models once performed okay on an old iPad but get shredded under common maneuvers on my faster hi-physics PC. @Bearclaw189
Didn't test your torpedoes. I'll spend less and less time on Jundroo products in the future - their OSX and iOS GUIs sre terrible fo "mouse+keyboard" building and testing. Was really looking forward to SimpleRockets Upgrades. Tested Jundroo new software there on SR2: it's a purely PC+2 button Mouse sandbox and test flight game. I do almost zero gaming at the moment. Other things to do in life. @SledDriver
Neat dive+power method. Fun periscope! FYI, stock guns survive water dunks, and torpedoes fired underwater will sink even the Beast (I’ve posted diesel surface subs which do that). I like this!
I may Purchase/download the Steam package on my Mac desktop. Unsure, at the moment. Since Simplerockets2 was clearly not built with the minority Macintosh OSX GUI users, testing it, again, it would just be an additional experiment. I might be impressed by the new planetary physics.I might not be impresssed. SimplePlanes runs okay on Steam for desktop systems. This is fyi, since you have bigger questions to contemplate regarding any kind of mobile app for SimpleRockets2. Good luck with future releases!
Thank you. The front/rear pitch control is interesting to watch. This completely new build will shoot down both of my other two entries to this challenge at far and medium ranges. The Jundroo "close" range ends up with all aircraft looping around until one of them runs out of fuel. Caveat: a slow target builds will just hang in there until you shoot it down. You have a new delta body to play with. The cockpit does not affect performance. Tested with cockpit on top, same performance. So for cosmetic appearances I mounted a scaled cockpit (your's now) behind the aircraft build's nose. @hopotumon
No despair. I’ll post you a 100% stock jet entry that will complete all 24 rings, always, on Oceanview. I’ll add menu weapons, and your cockpit. You let me know, eventually, if it’s a match for others stock dogfighters. @hopotumon
IK. All of my test builds will never be posted, yet I have tested stock builds that would complete Oceanview 100% given a course time of 2-3 minutes and yes it would be agile. But it probably would be a POS if used as an AI dogfighter. @hopotumon
Ah, that’s a new read the fine print detail that ought to be added to to Guidlines. I can build a propeller or jet platform that’s an optimized AI Dogfighter, but can complete only 4-6 rings via Oceanview Race mode. Maybe I’ll submit a second entry, maybe not. The V1.0 SP Olde Propeller thing I submitted will complete all rings in the Oceanview Race course 95% of time if the AI gods allow so. @hopotumon
Thanks, although winning was not the main goal here, assumes you use AI dogfight and AI Oceanview to test, because the results could surprise even a veteran like yourself. The build is new for your contest; in AI dogfight it’s a match for most of my jet fighter builds. On Oceanview the run time is about 50 seconds, kinda slow. @hopotumon
Could be medium physics on my iPad. Don’t sweat it. The link I sent you was a competition winner for Doomsday air/space ships, which I also built on medium physics on an iPad. Just fyi. @Mickk
This thing blows up shortly after launch. Counter proposal: Use one of the very few working battlecruisers so far posted on SP. (Yes, it uses vtol for launch, has weapons and warp speed)
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/nLpW23/USS-Sword-of-Damocles
50 % of my builds use nudged construction, via iOS. They had better be allowed, since @hopotumon cannot run an xml scan on standard nudged parts. Just a hint. @marcox43
Guess that was only me, using medium physics on iOS. In any case, an upgrade could include more speed+maneuvering via usind roll=rudder steer for iOS users (who do not evet use yaw). @bang091
OK.This is clearly a "flashy airplane" challenge, so I doubt I'll be entering. FYI I just landed my protototype cargo lander, TWICE, with fearless Jarhead Marine figurines to the bottom base of the Krakabola Volcano. I saved the location. I wish Jundroo would allow sharing of compatible starting points for launch: sea, land, and snow with other SP community members. @TMach5

Thanks @Bearclaw189 - I'm doing file transfers from old platforms for my newer platforms.
@SledDriver So is SR2 worth getting and testing on my new PC platform?
Didn't test your torpedoes. I'll spend less and less time on Jundroo products in the future - their OSX and iOS GUIs sre terrible fo "mouse+keyboard" building and testing.

Completes DareDevil in 1:45 like clockwork even with added weight of weapons. FYI, yes that was an old challenge. @hopotumon
This fighter feeds on chicken. 🐓
@hopotumon

Replica comment? @ColonelStriker
Which comment? @ColonelStriker
Lose the smoke trails mod, and I can test/fix it for you.

Thanks
Clarification appreciated. @EternalDarkness
Is this challenge to show off fancy camera views within the cabin, or does pilot + cabin view suffice?
I’ve done that 3 years ago. Handling was lousy, time for a re-design for Klingon birds. @JediWolf
Thank you! @JediWolf
Thanks @Gameboy21
Yes, I discovered by trial and error. @Vidal99977
Request you add wheels up protocol for all users.
I submitted other entries. @Legal
Thank you.
Sleek, slick!
Thanks @Legal
Yeah, thanks for the heads up! @RailfanEthan
