  • Question To Moderators & Developers + Rants 2 months ago

    Irony, in its broadest sense, is the juxtaposition of what appears to be the case on the surface and what is actually the case or to be expected. It typically figures as a rhetorical device and literary technique. In some philosophical contexts, however, it takes on a larger significance as an entire way of life.

    Irony' comes from the Greek eironeia (εἰρωνεία) and dates back to the 5th century BCE. This term itself was coined in reference to a stock-character from Old Comedy (such as that of Aristophanes) known as the eiron, who dissimulates and affects less intelligence than he has—and so ultimately triumphs over his opposite, the alazon, a vain-glorious braggart.[1][2][3]

    Although initially synonymous with lying, in Plato's dialogues eironeia came to acquire a new sense of "an intended simulation which the audience or hearer was meant to recognise".[4] More simply put, it came to acquire the general definition, "the expression of one's meaning by using language that normally signifies the opposite, typically for humorous or emphatic effect".[5]

    Until the Renaissance, the Latin ironia was considered a part of rhetoric, usually a species of allegory, along the lines established by Cicero and Quintilian near the beginning of the 1st century CE.[6] "Irony" entered the English language as a figure of speech in the 16th century with a meaning similar to the French ironie, itself derived from the Latin.[7]

    Around the end of the 18th century, "irony" takes on another sense, primarily credited to Friedrich Schlegel and other participants in what came to be known as early German Romanticism. They advance a concept of irony that is not a mere "artistic playfulness", but a "conscious form of literary creation", typically involving the "consistent alternation of affirmation and negation".[8] No longer just a rhetorical device, on their conception, it refers to an entire metaphysical stance on the world.[9]

  • BetterLifeMod 1.6 years ago

    I dunno if you have any experience with general android development, but now that SP won't get any updates for quite some time, I have a good theory of how the community could bring back android modding support. (I'm no android dev myself but I've seen the same thing happen to other apps, so it could be doable.)


    Said theory is patching. We do not have to abide by the play store's rules, we can extract the simpleplanes apk, decompile it, insert our own code, re-sign it, and bam, we have mods. We shouldn't have the patch itself contain mods, instead, we have the patch be a modloader that lets the game read and run standard spmod.android files. The mobile version can still run certain map mods, but lacks the support to run any real code, Perhaps we can patch in a way to run the code instead of a whole modloader.
    (Search up ReVanced & lucky patcher if you want examples of apk patching)

  • What's Next? 1.7 years ago

    @RepublicOfCursedPlanes JNO has one connection per connection point per part. You cant just connect everything together willy nilly like you can in SP. In JNO, I can only have a fuel tank connected to one end of a rotator and a wing on the other
    in SP, I could have 4 fuselages, a wing, and a missile connected to one end, and have the other end connected to multiple fuselages, a fuel tank, and a cockpit block.


    The pointer tool on JNO mobile has much smaller hotboxes than the one on SP mobile, leading to me fat fingering it and creating a giant mess of mirrored parts.

  • What's Next? 1.7 years ago

    Unfortunate to see, but not surprising. I would move over to SR2 and start building there, but due to severe limitations of it's building system, I will stick around here. SP shall never die.

  • Let physics quality be changed in SimplePlanes VR 2.2 years ago

    It is changeable on SPVR on PC, and is changeable by editing game files in SPVR quest.

    just be warned, changing physics settings on quest will cause immense lag. There is a reason it isn't changeable via normal means

  • What do you hate doing on simple planes? 2.8 years ago

    Not things I hate doing but things I dislike in general:
    .
    1: having to rebuild something because i didn't make a backup
    .
    2: telling people that if they add the VR tag to their builds, they don't have to ping a curator (only ping me if the build in question is unlisted, otherwise, I can see it in my headset using the VR tag)
    .
    3: the undo button
    .
    4: connections on detachers, pistons, and suspension springs being incredibly wobbly even on high physics
    .
    5: the overabundance of replicas on the website (this game is about building the planes of your wildest dreams and you decided to build something that already exists. remember the days of hypno planes? Those were cool)
    .
    6: people who post memes in the airplane section
    .
    7: rewriting the same FT code 5 times because the last 4 iterations dont work or lag too much
    .
    8: Tuning PID loops
    .
    9: narcissists (there's not many, but I try my best to stay away when one crops up)

    @BeastHunter curation is about VR compatibility, and seeing 2 of everything while trying to drive around using a Dpad smaller than your hand really doesn't work that well. Said Dpad is directly below your head (it's touching your chin) and moving to a more comfortable spot will clip you outside of the imposter
