    that's for you to find out! You think they'd give it away?

  • A plane lands on a beach. This is what happened to it's pilot: 6.2 years ago

    The prize is the disappointment of finding out the holes in it are fake

  • Velocity of missiles 6.3 years ago

    The missile does not consider itself properly launched when it is still connected to the main cockpit and the targeting will not work. The target max speed for the inferno missile is 450m/s = 1006.6 mph.

    @randomusername I have a mod in progress that would contain a function like this but I don't have as much time to finish it and this script was sat around in my files.

  • @Mattangi is a LIAR 6.9 years ago

    @Awsomur just in favour of keeping an open mind, his parents said "he" (a South Korean pilot) was dead, but never linked it to "Mattangi". There is no evidence as yet that "Mattangi" was the deceased pilot, except the account supposedly belonging to his friend. I can't jump to conclusions, because I don't know the ins and outs of the south korean military (and I don't believe you do either).

  • is the traffic car model in sp2 taken from an asset pack? one month ago

    @BMilan the geometry load of a SP craft exported to a mesh would just be far too much to instance that many times for a map feature sadly.

  • Upvoting through links is possible. 1.8 years ago

    it's not new, it's been known for over 7 years at this point. And while yes the design of the website could be changed to prevent it, we're kinda busy with a lot of stuff right now - it's not exactly an existential threat to anything and it can't be hidden, so if people abuse it we can just remove the points they got from it (or even more! :D)

    @ToeTips it's not a rule we decided on ourselves, we can't legally knowingly collect data from people under 13, due to US law. So if we're aware that someone is under 13 then we have to terminate the account.

  • SOLVED High AoA reverses roll inputs…how?! 2.3 years ago

    here's a page that might explain some of the concepts: https://www.aviationsafetymagazine.com/features/stall-recovery-ailerons-or-rudder/

    Specifically the section titled "the stall":

    “Under some conditions, an aileron that is set to lift a drooping wing may actually stall that wing and drop it viciously,”

    Essentially, trying to roll left, you're using the right aileron to "lift" the right wing up. If that wing is just on the verge of stalling, the extra lifting is too much to ask of the wing, causing it to stall and lose even more lift, making it fall instead of rise.

  • Why can't we edit the description of curated aircrafts? 2.6 years ago

    Curating is a check to make sure that the craft is usable in VR, but also that the content is appropriate to be shown directly in the app. If you want to change your description, ask a curator to un-curate it while you change the description and have it re-curated.

  • Advanced Targeting 3.2 years ago

    @xiaozhang358 I do remember the easter egg. Nice work decoding the first part. I honestly can not remember, and have no record of, what the second part means. I'd also say there's a 50% chance it doesn't mean anything and I put random numbers in it to mess with people. Sorry. Also, I don't think 7 * 191 is a hint for the second one. It has a meaning in itself.

    It's just a general website error caused by the whole site slowing down, Andrew's made some tweaks so hopefully it should improve now.

  • For developers! 3.4 years ago

    It's a really neat effect, but it doesn't hold up too well when you get close, which is pretty essential in SP. It seems to consist of a stack of textured layers over the terrain, so it would still affect performance, especially when near it on high resolution displays (like VR). Also, did you really just make that account to upvote your own video?

  • Regarding Built-in Designer suite 3.5 years ago

    They actually are supposed to persist, just don't due to a bug. They save whenever you tab away from the game or leave the designer (the same times the editor craft saves). However they only load when you open the blueprints panel, so if you exit the designer or tab out when you haven't opened the blueprints panel since opening the designer, it saves before it has loaded, which overwrites the save with a blank one. The fix for this will be coming along with 1.11. In the mean time, you can back up your configuration in the Blueprints/config.xml file in the save directory.

  • SPVR Update - Control Base 3.5 years ago

    Also yes, there are some XML options for tuning the strength of the rotator and I guess if you set them to zero it would be free to spin on any unlocked axis

  • SPVR - Fuselage Slice 3.6 years ago

    @BMilan the slicing operation does affect the collisions in that the material that was removed will no longer collide. However the collision geometry for the hollow fuselage was never hollow, so unless we change that in the future, it'll be that way for actual physics in flight. In the designer, since the geometry is all static, we can much more easily make it hollow collision, so you should be able to select parts easier.

    @Destroyerz117 yes, it applies to all parts with the Fuselage modifier

  • USS Beast spawned at Krakabloa 3.7 years ago

    The ship locations are synced to your launch locations. You probably launched from a location that had been saved or modified to place the ships there.

  • The new egg of the pyramid? 4.4 years ago

    @NewmanSTAR man I'm glad someone cracked the advanced targeting one, been waiting years for someone to find the whole thing (and not just accidentally trigger it by glitching the game). As for the numbers, they may or may not mean anything but I've actually forgotten myself and I didn't write it down, so good luck with them! Also, the laser works.

    Edit: I remembered the code, it's decodable.

  • Is the Blueprints panel not on mobile? 5.3 years ago

    It's disabled on older iOS devices because apparently the image picker doesn't work on them. That wasn't me, I haven't sold my soul away to the apple ecosystem so Andrew does the iOS specific stuff.

  • Suggestion of how to end this mod discussion and get mods on android in the future. 5.7 years ago

    @jamesPLANESii trust me, they won't have given up easily. Reading up on it it appears that Mono, the compiler currently used, which has JIT (just in time) compilation that allows loading of mods, does not support Arm64, so to build for Arm64 they must use IL2CPP, which is an AOT (Ahead of Time) compiler and thus cannot go adding things (loading mods) at runtime - every library must be present at compile time. Here, it seems like the unity guys don't see much promise in getting Arm64 on mono in the future.

  • A Game Security Weakness 6.5 years ago

    1. does not take a smart person to use a vpn
    2. why the hell would you need a vm
    3. "ip scrambler" I guess you mean a vpn
    4. yes, bans are circumventable. To make it impossible to circumvent a ban, they'd have to make it like you have to provide proof of ID for creating an account. Even then, identity theft and just using a sibling/friend's account means that it is almost impossible to enforce.
      so unless we're gonna become some totalitarian state where jundroo can keep biometric information on all it's users and verifies for each action, you can't enforce a ban fully.

  • Railway mod 6.6 years ago

    If you want to export for android, first re-run the unity installer, but this time check the box that says "Android Build Support".
    You will also need to install the android SDK, which you can find how to do here, ignoring steps 3 and 4.

  • You guys have a discord channel. Use it please. 6.9 years ago

    @Caveman999 don't listen to Caveman999 or any of the other RPers. They really badly spammed our SimplePlanes (not SimpleRolePlay) forums. He was later denounced for repeated roleplay posts. If you see anyone else doing it, please link them here.

  • What is the SimplePlanes Masterchat? 7.1 years ago

    You have probably heard of SPM from the logo in some people's bios, but the majority of our members do not display such. And just because we are selective about who gets in, it doesn't mean we aren't willing to help anyone, no matter the rank.

  • Wow you have to see this 7.2 years ago

    in the last 30 days, you've posted an 52 forum posts. To compare, I've been on this website for over two years and have only posted 36. That is average of 1.8 posts per day, compared to 0.049 from my account, and I have been pretty active on the community.


    Of course, there's no point just shouting out problems but no solutions. I'd recommend joining a discord server where you can show off things like this, without clogging up the forums.

  • XML craft files delete on every launch one month ago

    Sounds like it could be steam's cloud sync doing it. Try adding your craft files back while the game is running, then closing the game - this should make steam cloud sync think that the game put them there, and add them to the cloud sync. Or if you don't want steam to sync your files to the cloud you can disable it in the game properties in steam.

  • DO NOT CLICK ANYTHING THAT SAYS VERI*PRO !!! 2.2 years ago

    I think the most likely way this would have happened is by credential stuffing (trying known email/password pairs that have been leaked from other services online). I don't advise clicking on dodgy links from these bots of course, but the best way you can keep your account secure is by making sure that you use a strong password for your SP account and don't use the same password on multiple online services. You can also use the tool HaveIBeenPwned to check if your information has been included in known data breaches. It probably has.

    Please stop trying to spread misinformation as if the moderation team were just handing out that punishment for saying Allahu Akbar, while omitting the fact that you followed it up with "B o o m", clearly implying you were making reference to terrorism and extremism, rather than peaceful religious practice. If you continue to lie like this, you'll probably be banned again.
