Hi,
This is probably going to piss some people off, so let me begin by apologizing for that. Now, over to the question part; why do some builds receive enormous amounts of upvote's, and others barely any? I've build a vtol transport system, works really good, looks quite nice, so on and so forth. Spend a couple of months working on it, and It rarely received any upvotes, and some moderate amount of downloads. After searching the database quite extensively, i really couldn't find anything (in the same leage) that works even close to as good as my buildt, whilst builds like flying penises and hamburgers and other one-minute jokes have literally hundreds of upvotes and thousands of downloads...can anyone explain why that is? (I'm not looking for sympathy, so please leave the boohoo-remarks...just trying to understand)
@SodiumIodide tnx for the constructive comments, it's an skill not many posses these days, duly appreciated.
The two other variants of the podhopper where also done a while ago, just posted them recently to see if that would make a difference. About the colliding parts-part; they do actually use the same piece of space, so imo they should collide; irl this would be pilot error. It's like the landing gears that, in some builds, disappear into a solid hull...can't stand that. The zepphopper, and ctx4 aswell, are just proof of concepts, not intended as finished build, i was just hoping someone more skilled than me would get interested and make something beautiful out of it.

the biggest trick is making it look good from the thumbnail. that is the main difference between my MiG-21 and my Me-262. similar quality, but the 262 screenshot is superior.
Found that five taps part @WrongFlyer, however can find a textbox
@LtzAsk You should try this to hide all the buttons: //maincamera>camera.set_depth 10 (default is 1)
Just put that in the dev console, which you can activate by going into settings and tapping the top bar five times. (Once in the game, activate it by a three finger touch.)
@SodiumIodide as long as you keep in mind that I'm working with ios and the basics of my builds is almost two years old (lots of new options since than) I'd actually rather encourage it
Tnx @WrongFlyer although quite limited when working on ios
From my (limited) experience, all you need to build is something decent. It doesn’t need to look great or be super fun to fly, but what you really need to perfect is the thumbnail. Nobody sees the whole airplane at first glance, just what the thumbnail shows them.
@SodiumIodide get Rick Rekt
@SodiumIodide yes yes yes yes.
@SodiumIodide even before you could do so blocked you.
@SodiumIodide but you would not be able do so. Hehe ;)
@SodiumIodide yes.
@SodiumIodide em I am getting mad. Ima start drama.
I think you don't always need a lot of parts to make something look nice @SodiumIodide, like you say; i see a lot of 500+ builds with some horrible corners and angles...
@LtzAsk yes
Tnx, What would be the optimum time of day than?@PioThePioneer
Tnx, thought it maybe was a anti-mobile platform thing, but i see your on android @RandomUser09
This happens with me probably everytime.
