A new block "Decal Block"

A 2D item that can be resizable where you can add an image/file to a side. This would greatly reduce the hassle and part count on cars/planes with decals.

    SimplePlanes would need to patrol that. I would think you would need at least 500+ points to use the block. @Bman01

    What about trolls posting inappropriate images?

    @MrSilverWolf Its not about copying and pasting,
    Every player has experienced that to make decals you need to adjust everything
    We are just asking to make the decals less part like the American roundel or the soviet star all should be only 1 part

    I'm all for features that reduces the number of parts needed to make a functional, yet good looking plane. After all, I play SP because I want to have fun building, testing, and playing my builds. If I just wanted to build a high quality sculpture to look at, I'd use a 3D modeling tool.

    I’d say no to this because then it takes out all the skill needed to put a nice paint scheme on something then it’s harder to make your plane stand out, and also would be less fun to simply grab a picture off of google and paste it to a plane, imo its all around better to make the decals than to have something like that (except for part count being high)

    I think this would make the game too easy, but I do agree with the idea. Maybe system could groups many parts into a single one. This would save so many parts, because say if you have a logo with 50 parts, you could combine it into 1, thus reducing physics needed to simulate it, thus reducing lag

    I mean take a look at this.. About 2500 of the parts on this plane are related to the livery and details that could be replaced with these blocks. It takes quite a lot to build the shape of a plane this accurately, so just adding this part won’t turn planes into “flying photographs” 🙄

    “Flying photographs”. PAH!

    Ye devs think that adding this feature wil, turn the planes into “flying photographs”
    75% of freeware (and payware) X Plane aircraft will probe them wrong.
    You know, I personally think this opinion is very dumb. You still need to build the shape of your plane! You can’t have a fuselage block, stick a load of stickers on it and get it to 100 upvotes!
    The fact that they won’t add this feature infuriates me!

    This would reduce the part counts on things

    This would actually kinda suck because then it would be too easy to make good looking planes.

    this can become very chaotic very quickly
    i think its better to build the details since the effort pays off as well as the outcome itself- having them details have a mf resolution on em and probably anti-aliased as well would juxtapose the rest of the whole thing and does not fit well with the aesthetic
