Hello There!
This is a challenge where you need to make a fighter that will be graded using a tournament bracket and simpleplanes dogfight feature.


RULES

  1. Has to be a successor, you can ask a mod to make your build one if you are unable to do so on your own.
  2. Has to fly, and it has to be an aeroplane, so no helicopter.
  3. No more than 1000 parts and no less than 10.
  4. No Mods, only XML editing and Finetuner is allowed.
  5. Has to be your own design.
  6. It can be fictional.
  7. Only 1 Submission.
  8. Do not contest disqualification.
  9. Looks will not be graded, but please at least look presentable so it dosent look like tutorial plane.

GRADING

Aircraft performance will be judged based on how well your aircraft competes against others. A tournament bracket will be created once grading is complete.

Grading will use the SimplePlanes dogfight feature. The SimplePlanes AI will make all decisions — not me — so make sure your aircraft is AI-compatible, or it may not function properly.

Each match will happen three times. cuz sometimes the fight will be biased and idk why.


RANKINGS

Prizes will be given in the form of upvotes.
Note: If you don’t have enough aircraft posted on the forum, I won’t be able to give the full prize.
1st Place: 20 Upvote
2nd Place: 15 Upvote
3rd Place: 10 Upvote

DEADLINE IS SEPTEMBER 7TH!

    Here are one observation of SP dogfighting if you'd like to do something like this in the future:

    If both planes gets destroyed at the same time, it counts as a victory for "your plane"

    This won't matter usually unless someone makes a suicide plane, I suppose.
    To counter planes which nuke the map, it might be wise to have an even number of rounds with planes taking turns being the "enemy". Draws can be decided using sudden death or something.

    It's primarily a dogfighter, but I've seen a few planes here with missiles so I gave him flares.
