@SILVERPANZER 1) it's fine to play the game however you want to. For instance, I don't try to chase internet points (anymore) and I'm happier that way.
2) yeah your point about social significance is sadly spot on. I find myself surprised when a bronze or silver player posts something halfway decent. However, it is important to realize that as EternalDarkness told me once, the points system is meant as "an indicator of skill and popularity". And chasing this number is just a way to try and convince yourself you have that skill and popularity. That said, point count can be a terrible indicator of skill and popularity at times.
@ToeTips oh yeah I was gonna reply but I totally forgot; sorry about that.
So how this thing works is there are a few different variables:
Off the top of my head, there are [input]control, RPM, and Battery. Battery is obviously the most important one, and it is in fact a few seperate expressions that could be combined into one. I don't remember exactly, but one of them basically says "if pitch, yaw, or roll are not equal to zero, the battery goes down a little bit. Otherwise, it stays at its current level."
Another expression says that if the Total RPM of the rotors is higher than 40 (arbitrary number), the battery will recharge. For your car, you don't need any of my RPM variables, you can probably just use GS or IAS as those will be a good indicator of whether or not the wheels are turning.
There's one more that just clamps it between 0 and 100, if you manage to combine the other two expressions into one expression this should be very easy to incorporate into the others.
The [input]control variables are used as inputs for their respective control surfaces, and basically what they do is say "if the battery is at zero, don't move. Otherwise, move like normal."
I hope this cleared it all up, this code is quite messy and not very self explanatory. If you have any questions let me know, you're honestly probably better at FT than me anyway lol
@EternalDarkness hmm ok I'll take it down if you think it's that bad.
Is this really ban-worthy tho? Never heard about somebody getting banned for encouraging mass upvoting. Heck, there was a whole mass upvote party for jamesplanes a while back. I'll delete this post after you respond. edit: nvm dis post is ded
yea I would agree with your post. If you want to play for internet points, go ahead, but you will gain nothing except internet points (kinda useless imo). If you chase after some superficial form of fulfillment, you're not going to get anything out of it in the end.
The "I'm leaving" posts are funny to me.
I personally have posted two. One was a stupid "I'm leaving the website for three days but don't worry I can still access it on my computer."
That was the most cringe thing I've ever said, and I later deleted it.
The second one was to inform some people that were asking for screenshots that I would not be available to help them for a little while. The second one actually served a purpose, the first one was not useful in any way and is actually quite embarrassing.
yeah nobody notices or really cares if you miss a day.
It is a fast way to get lots of internet points though, if you can consistently get 5 upvotes a day you'll have platinum in a year. But at what cost?
@ToeTips I'll test it out. You might be able to find some android compatible tracks somewhere by looking around, some tracks such as [ this one ]https://www.simpleplanes.com/Mods/View/1250347/Simple-Race-Tracks) can be used on mobile still (hypothetically)
@ToeTips I think mirage is about the same size and maybe a bit wider than Gold Prix. If the performance is pretty realistic, I wouldn't worry about it being to OP for a track.
You stink!1!1!1!1!1!111!![

Good luck with making the face reveal tho!
@ToeTips that probably is more realistic than what I have going on here.

@Graingy I haven't downloaded it, but it does look pretty nice.
This is actually really good lol
@Randomplayer oh ok

@All @SimpleStudent we'll see, this thing was not exactly easy but I'll think about it
