Welcome to Noob player Support!!!!
Here i am going to go into depth a bit in the Volume so let's get into this
Well i know my How to not be a noob guide was more of a Rickroll, so i am going to make up a bit by doing a better guide(Not those 20000 word guides but it is modest after all).
I know...wait. We all know there are players out there that want to build good things, get a lot of upvotes and get famous in the community; Let’s face it we all do. But 70.3% of them have really no clue how to, or at least use the available tools set in place for them. This guide will go through the basics of Simpleplanes’ wonderful features that could make you bigger than the stars in the community.
First off, mods. I know most of the New/Noob players have no clue how to use mods. So as i have no computer experience with them, i will show all of the android players how to install and use them(Sorry ios, but Steve Jobs said fu to mods) Below is the sequence it should be in
How do you download mods on android?
easiest way for me. It just requires download of A file manager called Zarchiver(don't worry it is not that big of an app and it is free. it is very reliable to, i been using it for over three years and it had never let me down)
1.download the mod
2.Using Zarchiver go to downloaded folder
3.cut or copy mod or selected file
4.Go to Android folder and click on data once in the android folder
5.go to Simpleplanes' folder and click on mods
6.copy mod[s] into the mod folder and restart Simpleplanes
7.open Simpleplanes and enable mod in mod section on home page
extra: if you want to to transfer planes using Bluetooth, it is the same process except go to Bluetooth section once the file is sent and cut/paste it to the aircraft Simpleplanes designs folder(should be above mods in Zarchiver)
Plz note that some Androids do it automatically but if it doesn't, then do it this way
Custom Text
Got that? Good. Now most of you are most likely wondering how players like me are placing images and links like hackers all over the site. But as i want to keep this post a modest length i will leave the link to a forum that even I learn my ways from.

Mods noobs should really take interest in to become pros
Overload
With this you can adjust almost everything from size to power of a part. Have a big plane but tiny engine? Just increase the size or power variable of the engine to make it more powerful.
DesignerSuite
With this you can post images into the designer and use them as a template for your build. It is a bit confusing at first but totally worth it in the long run.
-Advanced Targeting
With this you can cheat a little at firing and dropping bombs. That simple.

I need support on how to be a noob.
imma already a noob
Can i habe 27k points b0ss?
@DemonSniper8 I have to. I am not to sure if every droid device does it but mine does
It really takes that much effort to install mods for you on android? When I had android I just clicked the download notification and it opened SP with the mod installed and I only had to click enable
Im a noob, this was very helpful
@vcharng Thanks for the info!
A few interesting addition:
1. after testing on my brand-new Me 262 HG III, I found out that the fuel consumption seems to be affected by the size (volume) of the engine, while the power is set by another coefficient. In other words, you can totally make a tiny engine with lots of power by using Overload. Then you'll have the most fuel-efficient super engine in the world.
2. Vanilla wing gun deals about 40 damage, and it seems that parts with fuel would be set on fire after taking more than 50-70 damage, and the fire would destroy the part if taking >80 damage. That's why vanilla guns almost always kills the part when successfully set it on fire, because if it set you on fire, it's definitely >80 damage.
3. If you are having problem with survivability, try connecting the parts in... weird ways. For example, if you make a layer of hollow fuselage outside your "real" fuselage, that would become a layer of armor (only works against guns though, because missiles would just blast through the whole thing).
4. USS Beast has 120000 HP, while USS Tiny has 60000, you can use this to test your guns.
@Ryn176 lol to me system file explorers are a waste of space like factory installed apps
"Using ZArchiver go to downloaded folder"
System file explorer: Am I a joke to you?
@OrangeBoardEnterprise me I have to manually move the file
Nope. My android mods work by just clicking on the mod.
