I've found something strange, some old mods seem to be loadable in 1.9. I can run Greenscreen Map and Gestour's old designers.

Also new Overload UI is too tiny for my fat fingers, in fact it's too small to use at all
Edit: so there is a scale function for it, but the button is too tiny

Can you do this? Stare at the space between your thumb and index finger on one hand. Then touch your thumb with your index finger. If you did it right you should feel t r i g g e r e d
Pistons only move objects that are connected to them (and parts connected to them).
Unlike fuselage blocks, pistons have specific attach points. If you use finetuner, parts may not attach well.
Piston attach points are weak, which is, parts can flex a considerable amount on them. Parts connected this way break easily, so i recommend putting a small fuselage block on the piston and connecting the wing to that or use multiple pistons braced together at the ends
Most important: make sure the moving parts are not connected to the base parts in any way
This is something I made a long time ago

WiperAnimator:
repeat(sum( InputWipers | (WiperAnimator>2&WiperAnimator<3.9)?1:0 ),4)
Comment: The animation period is 4s, and the state of the animation is tracked in WiperAnimator. The animation always advances if it is in the range t=2..3.9
.
WiperPosition:
WiperAnimator<1 ? smoothstep(0,1,WiperAnimator) : (WiperAnimator<2 ? smoothstep(1,0,WiperAnimator-1) : 0)
Comment: Not related to your question but good for context. Interpret the animation value. t=0..1: smoothstep increasing; t=1..2: smoothstep decreasing; t=2..4: constant zero
If you don't have other requirements for the rotator, just set the input to a very large constant value. If you want to be able to stop or change the rotation speed, you can use sum() and set the speed xml to a very large value. You will still get jolts when changing speed.

I can say that recently, I used control bases to make a decorational part that spins very fast. However, the CoM of the parts must still line up with the rotation axis of the control base to prevent vibration. The parts don't affect the handling much.
Do planning before you start (read: convince yourself that it is a good idea even if it is not)
Embrace the way of the tism
Enforce a one project at a time rule, so you must complete a project to start something else that seems cooler. And if you lose interest in that other thing, it wasn't that cool anyway
You cannot get the CoG from blueprints or 3D models since they don't tell you what exactly is in a plane. You cannot assume that a plane has a constant density.
However, civilian planes might have publicly available documents related to weight characteristics and balancing, which you can use to get the CoG
@WritersCrusadersAirCo2 you're actually good when it comes to using drawings in plane posts. Basically everyone else steals art (especially in the 2d graphics scene), so it's good to see original art on planes
PC is good for screenshotting and map mods. Working with variables and labels is easier. You can regex edit (although you can still do it on some android phones). But all other building is terrible
.
Mods that i actually use:
The orthographic blueprint mod, since it's easier to use than the in-game one (no combining images required)
Nuerburgerking for car builders (and also for farmland background xdd)
The clouds mods (only use when taking screenshots)
I think that text-based definition and runtime generation of gauge faces should be easy to implement
I also want circular and bar-shaped meters for digital displays. The circular ones can't be done without moving parts or massive labels. The bar ones are reasonable but still more convoluted than necessary
You need the mod tools from the game install. It's the game folder in Program Files, not AppData
Or you can just yoink the Jundroo folder from the source code of a somewhat recent mod
