OP Challenge!!!

Design the most overkill, deadliest aircraft that you can dream of! Each aircraft will be tested in 5 AI vs AI dogfights at random ranges against a top secret multirole fighter developed by MAJE. We're using this opportunity for community input to test out and further advance our designs.

FOR A MODERATE BASELINE VEHICLE (Not the vehicle used to test against, but still good), use my SimpleDrone:

https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/z2I8eL/AI-SimpleDrone

Rules!---------------------------------------------------

-Fictional or Replica planes allowed

-Must be a successor

-XML modding is encouraged, arguably necessary to win this contest! I suggest using an XML editing mod like Overload to do so!

-Go ham with weapons editing! No weapons from mods however, they must be usable in a vanilla version of SP

-One entry per user

  • 1 to 600 parts

-Parts can have health up to 2000

-MUST be flyable by the computer in dogfight mode

-I reserve the right to DQ aircraft based on community guidelines or if they use equipment from mods (including parts such as propulsion or gizmo components)

Judging Criteria----------------------------------------

I will fly the plane myself, then hand it to the computer to fight with. If an entry scores 5 wins or losses, I will keep sending it into fights until it that changes, then take the total number of fights and assign a win % based on it.

Basic Categories:
Speed 0-10 Points (How fast is it at low, med, high altitude?)

Agility 0-10 Points (Turning, smoothness, pitch, roll, yaw control and speed)

Player Flyability 0 -10 Points (How nicely does it handle when a person is controlling it? How effectively can I target weapons when I'm flying it?)

AI Flyability 0-10 Points (Like player flyability, but how well does it respond to what the fighting AI is trying to do?)

Low Altitude Flight Behavior 0-10 Points (Altitude < 10,000 feet. This should be a gimme score, almost all planes should be able to fly well and be responsive below 10,000 feet)

Med AFB 0-10 Points (Altitude 10,000-25,000 feet, how well does it fly at medium altitudes? Does it still respond well? How badly is its turning rate affected?)

High AFB 0-10 Points (Altitudes >25,000 feet. Like before, but higher up. Does it still respond well, or are inputs merely suggestions?)

Detail and Form 0-10 Points (How good does it look? If it's a replica, how proportionally close is it? Camofluage and decal patterns? For replicas, this includes accuracy.)

WEAPONS!!! 0-20 Points (This category is entirely about the performance and originality of your aircraft's weapons suite. How your weapons look goes to detail and form. How deadly are your weapons? How fast do they end the fight? How often do your missiles land kills?)

Prizes!------------------------

First Place: Spotlight and 5 upvotes!
Second Place: Spotlight and 3 upvotes!

All others: An upvote!

DEADLINE IS MAY 31st!

    @BionicDragonYT if you can get it to be a successor and get it to fit within the rules of the challenge, go right ahead! If not, I can still run it against the jet I'm using for this challenge, but it won't be eligible to compete in the challenge

    Can I submit something for this even though it has 800 parts, and health is higher than 2000? It will probably get 20/10 for all categories except for maybe AI control. It's so fast and agile, that the AI will have no idea how to control it, as with anything that can go MACH 5 and be able to make a 360° YAW turn in under half a second WHILE GOING MACH 5! And the weapons! 100/20! It has 200 GUNS! 200 INTERCEPTORS! AND 200 CLEAVERS! And the guns have a 10 MILE RANGE and a HUGE spread! Each bullet is an INSTANT KILL! AND THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF THEM! What about missile attacks? Missiles ignore health. Don't worry, I got you covered with 40 countermeasure dispensers that have infinite flares and make a ring of flares! Or as I call it: THE RING OF FIRE! As for looks: it's looks like a regular space ship (my gravatar is on the wings). That's what I want you to think! In reality, it's a death machine that makes Starkiller Base look like a child's toy! So, can I submit it?

    @Strikefighter04 yup they decided they shouldn't add things like built in multiplayer, game assets like tank tracks and light effects, or a mission editor, but it definitely should be part of some sort of bundle.

    @HarryBen47 @WarHawk95
    Créez un sous-assemblage à partir de votre avion, puis téléchargez ce message, supprimez le bureau et attachez votre avion au cockpit. (Et oui, j'ai utilisé Google Translate pour répondre)
