Pros:
- more comfortable if you are already a mac guy
- cheaper if you need a mac and cannot buy another pc just for gaming
.
Cons:
- apple hardware related tomfoolery (you cannot switch parts or companies)
- something like 2 small useless mods cannot work on mac (tbf they also might not work on linux via wine) (i know they are useless because i made them)
if you have sp on pc, or you can access the xml files on your phone (old versions of android only), you can use a very fast method to remove drag that's already there
As an artist-type person, i slightly hate PEA since a lot of them look very bad, not necessarily as in inaccurate or unrealistic, but rather, visibly rough and low quality
Quick check of recent PEA (very small sample size):
- fuselage that has like 3 parts in a line, i joke to myself that my tris are visible but this is too much
- [point partially taken back] airbrake that can be made with fuselage cutting (which will make it have FEWER parts), but instead the builder made a rectangular-ish 3 part panel that looks very rough (The airbrake actually uses just one airbrake part, but it sticks out from a circular fuselage when retracted)
Additional (about 2 days of newest):
- semi-circular intake on a replica of a well-known stealth plane xdd (there is no way to build that shape with 1 part, just use a few more)
- allegedly using a lot of wing parts to make a curved wingtip (i didn't download but a commenter called it out)
- the common pet peeves, like blue or chrome windows, etc
I have both a phone and a laptop. I only use my phone for building now, it crashes randomly in the simulation. My laptop can probably run 2000 parts on high physics, since it's a semi gaming or workstation design
separate it from the plane completely, use scale selected parts OFF and relative scale ON
this also means you must re-attach the fuselage art, if it was previously attached to a plane
@001 :xpp: :ElNoSabe:
But seriously, programming has this stuff called dependencies, where you rely on others' code. Some company made some changes and along the way you lose mobile mods
it used to be a feature, then it got removed
maybe it was removed because it was buggy, you usually see some duplicated characters around the read more point
(🤓 answer) technically the engine and brake spins the wheel, then the game determines the slip and applies forces on the plane using the slip
Differentials can be made completely in FT but you need one engine for each wheel
Buoyant force in the game depends on the mass of the part. If you add more dead weight, or increase massScale, a fuselage can float more. If massScale is 0, the fuselage will not provide any buoyant forces. This is the opposite of real life.
Buoyant force applies from a single point. Each force is like a thin table leg. You need many to keep level.
I like the idea of downvoting comments and adding reactions to comments.

For commenting with pictures, i think the current method of using links is good enough. Embedding images increases loadtimes and data usage. If the sp website hosts images, then the server data will grow much faster than it already does. Some sp users, both low and high ranks, don't consider the size of images and will push tens of HD screenshots into a single plane description or forum post, and adding to comments will worsen the load times.
I had anime girl with exposed sarashi cloth for a while and no one complained so idk
There is a wide range of nsfw levels for bikini anime girl pics, so it depends
If you click download from the steam browser, the plane will load automatically
If you use normal browsers but don't want to end up with a bunch of .splane files, you can copy the aircraft link, and in the designer press ctrl+L
If the label doesn't use the alpha tag, you can use it to hide all text
You can also try to put a line at the beginning with 0% line-height, and switch to a large line-height to hide text
Notes:
- FT on the top is a timer, but I forgot to use it so I used the video
- Timer in the car directly uses the Time variable, so it's not the lap time
- My current times in GT4 are 7:38.8 with Sports Medium tires and 7:08.8 with Racing Medium tires
- In SP, the car is slower in a straight line, but faster in the corners. The cornering is probably similar to Racing Medium or Soft tires.
- A more realistically tuned version has been added
This is a bug in the game where the exhaust particles don't rotate with the engine. This means that no matter the rotation of your engine, each particle does not change shape, and if you use different xyz values, the gap between the particles changes
Don't use different xyz particle scale
You can try increasing the engine input controller value past 1, using multiple very small engines in a line, or alternatives like label engine effects
Well, the first thing is that there is no way to use guns except with FireGuns, so you cannot drop the health of engines
However, you can deactivate the engines.
Example code based on timer code:
sum(smooth(Throttle>=0.95?99:0, Throttle>=0.95?1:COOL_MUL) > 60 ?1:0) < 0.01
.
For cooling time multiplier COOL_MUL > 0
.
Smooth argument 2 is the max rate of change towards smooth argument 1.
Value inside sum() is 1 if the timer>60, 0 if timer<=60. This means sum() increases at 1/second only when timer>60.
Sum is compared against a small number 0.01. At first, sum() is 0. When timer>60, sum() will exceed 0.01 and deactivate your engine
Luckily, they suck consistently, so you can put another rotator that rotates parts in the opposite direction
The strange thing is that rotators produce torque even if they rotate parts with no mass
@JustWingIt to change the time, change the 1 in MyButton variable
Stopping the button from being pressed is more complicated, I tried it and I don't know how to do it without actual trickery (pistons or storing a whole lot more variables)
