How to create twists using inlets!

    Basically how this works is the inlet slants in the same direction relating to the part all the time, so if you give the part run, the inlet appears to be twisting. You can use this to your advantage by rotating the inlet and using the run and inlet slant to get a twist.

    The advantage to this is you can easily adjust the twist and slant at each end of the inlet. The disadvantage of this is you can’t have both ends straight up while having twist.

    Okay, someone needs to do some kind of definitive tutorial that has every piece of info on building stuff and pin it in the forums for all to easily access. I'm just now knowing you could do this and I wasn't even looking for it.

    Start with a fuselage inlet where the angle is facing right or left. Rotate it to around 45 degrees using the fine tuner under the “rotate” tab. Add “rise” to the fuselage

    As cool as this is, I've always known you could do this, I just haven't really found many uses for it yet.

    I doubt I'll ever use this despite how cool it is since I'm not actively making wrought iron fences, but I'll keep it in mind as a useful trick. And I don't want to get sued over physics.
    Remember those days before they passed the laws of physics? Man, space cowboys were great.
