Allow for greater numerical values

Mod TheLatentImage  8.5 years ago

The fuselage piece is great, I really enjoy using it. But, I find that the .5 and 5 scale limits and the +/- 2.5 rise/run limits a bit... well limiting for lack of a better word. It would be nice if we had a range from .1 to 10 for scale and up to 5 for rise/run. It would be fairly easy to implement and would allow for a greater variety for shapes and sizes.

What do you guys think?

    @Wakescar if you need something specific built let me know man, I can usually get it done pretty quickly unless I'm sleeping.

    This would be phenomenal. I have a list of small diameter pieces and funny angles, (both fuselage and wing) I've had to repurpose from other peoples builds, in my subs because I'm on iOS. I cannot create these sizes or the angles you suggested myself, having no access to the XML. This would make my life much easier. Even if all we got is a 45* increment for rotation, and the small diameter increments were only available below .5. Seems like it wouldn't be much to ask for the sake of further leveling the playing field. I can appreciate how some users have set themselves apart through the XML, but I wanna play too lol

    Completely agree. Being able to do the 45 degree rotation would be awesome too

    @TheLatentImage yes, especially for stealth aircraft. At least just give us 45 degree rotations.

    @Tribaldragon1 agreed, especially for rotation. Smaller rotational increments would be very useful.

    Would also be nice if they just put this for rotation and gloss as well

    This, so much.

    Yes 0.20 10 is too small and 20 will help with big things cause ppl won't have to make it out of hundreds of small things

    I absolutely need this. The size should be adjusted with a slider instead. Maybe from 0 to 20 for length/width/height and 0 to 10 for rise/run. Same for fuselage cones.

    Yes.

    @Oicraftian I think that's a good idea. I proposed something similar a while back. Being able to input your own values in the editor would be great. It would be xml modding without xml modding.

    How about having the ability just to type in the size you want. That would work quite easily for the user.

    I have to agree with this, all the way. Though also having more editing for the fuselage block would be nice(namely having 1/6's and 5/6's as a possibility)

    You and I seem to think similarly
