@Champ9961 In my certian test runs I'm able to get my current J-80 in at about 58 seconds. but its currently unreliable. and I still need some parts to make it work properly...
@Fygaroh you rotate them for that. not control surfaces. control srufaces will make the AI Pitch down constantly (or up on certian courses) which isn't exactly the same as down force.
Hmmm you know it sucks that this is a mod class. I won't be able to enter a new updated version of my J-66 that got utterly screwed by the AI last time we did daredevil. no redemption for that. oh well... I'll just have to figure out something else then...
Probably something that doesn't roll instead roll...
@Alex23 yea but that's not the point. I was hoping I could clip through the bridges so I could simply just enter my J-80. its too big normally because of the bridges but was hoping. (also the last part of all this at the end is hard)
If you turn off collisions on an air craft does that mean you go through the bridges with out hitting them? if so I would like to ask for help from some one to do that to one of my planes. (because last time I tried It uh broke that plane XD)
so... what exactly did you do to it to change it?
its against the rules to reupload something with out changing it. and even then overly minimal changes usually don't count... (or like spamming engines on a plane or something)
@Aetheoran for a start thanks for waiting 3 months before responding. secondly.
What I'm getting at is you took some one else's plane did something that doesn't help the design at all. or create any thing genuinely new out of it. (which is fine at just that) but then decided to upload it.
Build what you like but keep the uploads to either things that you modify that actually change the plane properly (not spamming engines all over it) or your own creations.
@emptybox do you think in all your times mirroring it. that maybe a few parts got stacked on top of each other on the one side? I've had weirder things happen,.
@ABC123 so... its a perfect size kind of deal then? just like propellers... because I tested with largest wheel size yea it barely moved. so I sort of gave up on that idea thinking. larger wheels were not helping.
@marcox43 I simply didn't have enough top speed to compete. and I'm trying to figurre out how he pushed past what limits I seemed to have.
and for the record. it was not drag.
The wings i used for down force, I tested them at a less steep angle so they wouldn't drag me down as much. and I went slower as a result for some reason... so drag is not the problem. but idk what was.
@Tully2001 did you see what I entered? I don't think its "maybe you're not good at cars". secondly. I made semi finals in the riding dirty and quarter finals here.
And I ended up losing to a car that some how had over 500mph of top speed espite having much less engine power than me.
My only question. how did the finalists break 420mph? In all my tests it was nearly impossible to go any faster and that was the upper limit. did I miss something or another?
@GrumpyRacing I understand that. I just find it a bit ironic that IOS users are happy about a win that still used features and the likes they have always complained that they are not able to do them selves XD
Well, uh good luck to every one tommorow. I actually didn't bother to build any thing new for this one. just re-using what I entered for the air strip drag tournament. should do fine.
@marcox43 its not that I can't make any thing good. its that I don't feel like bothering to make any thing at all. I"m just going to enter what I used in the air strip drag.
@Tully2001 well here's the problem.. I used that overload mod and set collisions off through that... and that was the result... I don't know hwat I did wrong but if you're feeling nice about it sure go ahead. because I am kinda sick of getting rammed for losses.
Well so much for trying to have no collisions on my plane. I just tried to do it. and when going into game to make sure it worked... I wasn't able to use many buttons. I couldn't throttle the engine up. I couldn't use the ESC key to pause. that one even in the build menu didn't work. and many other problems... so yea. so much for that idea.
I really need some one to tell me how to turn plane collisions off on a plane. the explanations I've looked at fail to show exactly where I need to put it in for the xml stuff.
@Alienbeef0421 here's a tip. while testing. put one plane is. put a testing drone in teh other slot. the testing drone is a tiny like 2 part thing that just sits there for the test. saves your FPS
@marcox43 yea I know of that issue. but in my several tests this thing hasn't crashed that much from the cones. (also I need a large wing span tbh. its what gives this thing its control and roll speed)
@BlueBurger14 to the company for shipping yes. its not going to become public. it'll be the same as any other thing you order. just free. and shipped to you.
(like some modded engines because I don't know how to mod the power my self)
@Champ9961 In my certian test runs I'm able to get my current J-80 in at about 58 seconds. but its currently unreliable. and I still need some parts to make it work properly...
@Fygaroh which by the way. in a non modded tournament. part rotation is allowed. just not part scaling or other such things.
By the way. can any one get me a BFE300 engine at exactly 2x power? pls and thanks :3
@Fygaroh you rotate them for that. not control surfaces. control srufaces will make the AI Pitch down constantly (or up on certian courses) which isn't exactly the same as down force.
@Fygaroh what do you mean exactly? putting wings like that on can do several things depending on your goal and how you mount them.
Hmmm you know it sucks that this is a mod class. I won't be able to enter a new updated version of my J-66 that got utterly screwed by the AI last time we did daredevil. no redemption for that. oh well... I'll just have to figure out something else then...

@Alex23 well that ruins my idea... hmmm this is going to be a hard one..
If you turn off collisions on an air craft does that mean you go through the bridges with out hitting them? if so I would like to ask for help from some one to do that to one of my planes. (because last time I tried It uh broke that plane XD)
so... what exactly did you do to it to change it?

@emptybox do you think in all your times mirroring it. that maybe a few parts got stacked on top of each other on the one side? I've had weirder things happen,.
I think it may have something to do with part scaling which I see you are infant doing. I don't know for sure but that's a likely reason.
@ABC123 so... its a perfect size kind of deal then? just like propellers... because I tested with largest wheel size yea it barely moved. so I sort of gave up on that idea thinking. larger wheels were not helping.

My only question. how did the finalists break 420mph? In all my tests it was nearly impossible to go any faster and that was the upper limit. did I miss something or another?
Looking at the replay and yea that makes sense. my car seemed to like crashing at the end.
@GrumpyRacing I understand that. I just find it a bit ironic that IOS users are happy about a win that still used features and the likes they have always complained that they are not able to do them selves XD
@GrumpyRacing And he also won using things that IOS user's all complain that they can't do.
@BirdOfSteel it can be a successor to your own creations yes. just not another user's
Well, uh good luck to every one tommorow. I actually didn't bother to build any thing new for this one. just re-using what I entered for the air strip drag tournament. should do fine.
@marcox43 its not that I can't make any thing good. its that I don't feel like bothering to make any thing at all. I"m just going to enter what I used in the air strip drag.
or well try to build any thing new to enter this one.
yea I don't think i'm going to enter this one.
I should probably work on something for this. but meh. I kinda don't feel like it.
@RedstoneAeroAviation you may as well try it any how. just make sure you build your's properly.
@Tully2001 well here's the problem.. I used that overload mod and set collisions off through that... and that was the result... I don't know hwat I did wrong but if you're feeling nice about it sure go ahead. because I am kinda sick of getting rammed for losses.

I really need some one to tell me how to turn plane collisions off on a plane. the explanations I've looked at fail to show exactly where I need to put it in for the xml stuff.
@Gestour is it after the materials section per part or at the very bottom of the text in the file?
@Alienbeef0421 yea sure its only 27 parts. my little P-71C
Yea would some one mind Tuning collisions off on my air craft? I for the life of me can't figure out how to do it.
@Alienbeef0421 ok lets face one thing. the AI may be bad but it can fly better than any one who plays the game.
@vtol and it took you 7 months to respond?
@Alienbeef0421 no still trying to figure that out lol. also havne't gotten back on simple planes in a while.
@Alienbeef0421 here's a tip. while testing. put one plane is. put a testing drone in teh other slot. the testing drone is a tiny like 2 part thing that just sits there for the test. saves your FPS
@Alienbeef0421 fairly basic I must say. I'd have a simaler design my self but I don't need to go 750mph this run.
@Alienbeef0421 yea but part count doesn't mean much so long as its in the standards :P
@Alienbeef0421 over load? whats that? (I already have fine tuner on)
@Karma just check up on the site in 9 days. next weekend. this tournament page will provide a link to the live stream.
@Karma yes. if you fully read the passage about successors. it has to be origional or based on one of your own designs.
@marcox43 Well I mean there's a pitch wobble (as the ai does) which interfeers with the roll rate at times but other than that its pretty good
@marcox43 it can happen. you should be using modded wings any how. you know wings that are unmovable like structural but have control surfaces.
@marcox43 yea I know of that issue. but in my several tests this thing hasn't crashed that much from the cones. (also I need a large wing span tbh. its what gives this thing its control and roll speed)
@BlueBurger14 to the company for shipping yes. its not going to become public. it'll be the same as any other thing you order. just free. and shipped to you.
@mikoyanster damn that's good.
@BlueBurger14 no matter where you are its mailed yes.
