Axiom of Luxury

Auto Credit Based on Jetpackturtle's ||OP Challenge!|| *CLOSED, JUDGING*

“Novelty in luxury, eloquently speaking of destruction.”

Basic Controls:
* Activator 1: Boost
* Activator 2: ANANSI Anti-Countermeasure Systems online
* Activator 3: Arm CONCURRENCE Missile hives
* Activator 4: VTOL mode
* Activator 8: Disable canards

VTOL Flight
* Activator 4 puts the aircraft into VTOL mode
* The VTOL stick controls altitude
This is a 2D VTOL! Standard 2D VTOL controls are below:

How to Use: AA Vortex Cannon
* Go to Air-to-air, and select Cleaver
* A small targeting circle will appear. When the enemy plane is in this circle, launch a cleaver or two.
* Max range is around 14.5 miles. The cannon preforms best at long range.

How to Use: ANANSI Systems
* These systems make constant locks on an enemy, which forces them to use all of their countermeasures!
* Go to air-to-air, and select guardian. Lock on to the enemy.
* Wait until the enemy uses all of its countermeasures
* Switch to another weapon, and finish the enemy off.
Note: Do NOT fire guardian missiles. They will just fall to the ground!

How to Use: CONCURRENCE Hives
* Max Range is about 1.5 miles. Locking angle is 90 degrees.
* Select interceptors.
* Lock on, and then fire. Hold the fire button for more devastating results!

For best combat outcomes…
* Use Activator 1 to boost yourself away from the enemy.
* When you are at a sufficiently long distance, turn around, and attack them with the long-range AA Vortex cannon. Use the ANANSI systems if needed.

A flashy, expensive aircraft, the Axiom of Luxury is exclusively used by SPEcorp’s founder and CEO. A rather cautious individual, SPEcorp’s CEO demanded that the resulting aircraft would be heavily armed, evasive, and, of course, comfortable. The resulting design was a unique swept-wing corvette that featured an interesting color scheme, and weapons that were designed by the SPEcorp CEO himself.

State-of-the-art weapons systems were featured in the Axiom of Luxury. Surpassing most military weapons, these defense systems give the Axiom an upper hand in any combat situation. Most of these weapons are geared for long range, and when paired with the Axiom’s booster engines, allow the Axiom to reposition itself for its preferred long-range mode of confrontation.

The Axiom of Luxury boasts two entirely new innovations that allow it to dominate in a long-range fight. The most prominent of the two is its Anti-Air Vortex cannon. This long-range cannon obliterates airborne threats at long-range, and is assisted by AI. The vortex projectiles can slightly change their trajectory, and have airburst capabilities. Unfortunately, countermeasures can, and will, interfere with the vortex cannon’s operation. This issue yielded the second combat innovation contained within the Axiom’s arsenal, an essential tactical system named ANANSI. Named for its trickery, the ANANSI system makes frequent locks on an enemy to force them to waste their countermeasures. When the two weapons combine, the Axiom of Luxury employs a fighting style in which it waits at a long range for the enemy to waste its countermeasures, and then terminates the threat with its AA Vortex cannon.

    I’ve had this plane downloaded for a while and just found this page again for the 2nd time, just learn a lot of new stuff!

    @Destroyerz117 Make sure that the engines responsible for lateral motion are perfectly aligned with the CoM

    one final question, when using roll with the vtol system to turn the aircraft tends to hop back into its normal position, this happens a little bit on yours but nowhere near the same degree as mine, is there anything you did to reduce/fix this?

    @spefyjerbf will do! Shouldn't be that much longer until it's done!

    @Destroyerz117 No problem! Feel free to notify me when you post the ship. It looks like it coming along very nicely.

    @Destroyerz117 That shaking is probably because the gyro is too powerful. Try bringing the gyro speed and stability down. Also, with gyros, a low stability and high gyro speed seems to work the best. For example, I would guess that, for your ship, a stability of around 1.5, and a speed of about 15, would be a good place to start.

    hey I've got a question for you, so I've decided to add a 2d vtol system like your suggested onto the planet express build (basically to make landing possible and using the magnetic winch hook) but it tends to shake like really shake when i activate the gyro, did that happen to you at all? And if so what do you change to fix it/make it better?

    @spefyjerbf I can't get over the looks of this, and I made it OP by changing the cleavers to 360 degrees!!!

    @GustoTheMagnificent Good observation. Unfortunately that is difficult to fix though.

    The ANANSI Systems are an interesting concept but it relies on your computers ability to handle the amount of countermeasures being outputed by an apposing aircraft

    @Jetpackturtle Thanks for the high score! I'm pleased by the "looks" score. It seems like people either loved the colors, or hated them.

    @ProKillaV12 I wouldn't call 9 days fast, but to answer your question, SP is one of the only video games I play.
