The way the arms work is, from a SimplePlanes engineering standpoint, absolutely fascinating. You have created what is essentially Procedural Animation, a method of animating that follows no rigid set of premade animations, and instead flows freely via natural physics reactions, only directed by Ai processes coded into the behavior of whatever is being procedurally animated. RainWorld is a fantastic example of a game that utilizes this; to reference the game, the way the arms on your Man'O'War here function is strikingly similarly to the tentacle legs of a RainWorld Daddy-Long-Legs, I'm legitimately really impressed with this funky-trees behavior you've made for this creation, very VERY well done!!
@YarisSedan sorry about that, for some reason I can't add in custom captions for the video, not even in YouTube studio. I tried following every tutorial I could find and nothing works. I don't know if it's a pc only thing? Since I'm doing all of this on my phone and I don't have a computer, so I guess that might be it? I really tried.
@Boeing727200F part of the plot. That pilot wouldn't come back to the base for another 39 hours, despite them only being gone for 45 minutes according to the ground crew. Additionally, that Hornet is not what brought the drone out of the sky. The Hornet was fleeing.
This is extremely part efficient for how nice and clean it looks, really clever usage of text labels. I love how custom everything is, from the guns and bombs, to the performance of the engine. This is very enjoyable to fly, it feels very refined and professional. Fantastic little plane!!
@Boeing727200F ohhh ok. Well sorry to hear that, once you get out of the school's WiFi and back onto your own WiFi, it shouldn't be a problem I'd imagine.
While it looks alright, its flight performance is really not good. Almost impossible to take off by conventional means, I had to give it headwinds to get it to even lift off. And even then once it's going fast enough to sustain flight, flying isn't exactly this things favorite activity, it constantly tries to roll over when turning and can barely pitch up. I can't believe I managed to land it without damaging it.

Your center of lift is far too back, it needs to be around the center of the wings, or just under the cockpit in this case. Additionally, less weight would benefit it.

Hopefully this helps, I do like the P-400, I just think this could've been more thoroughly tested and improved before it was posted.
Absolutely gorgeous livery, had no idea Saudia uses such a neat paint job for their aircrafts. Wish more airlines would use vibrant and pretty liveries for their planes tbh, would brighten up the whole commercial flying experience even more
This is super clean, love the design. It's a shame the weapons perform a little poorly, and the aircraft lacks a gun. The custom weapons do look fantastic though, i gotta give it that.
Old airliners have such a unique and cool charm to them, it's a shame they were often uncomfortable or even unsafe to fly on. It'd be neat if we started making them again, except with modern avionics and technology of course so that they're up to standards with reliable and comfortable modern day airliners.
Idk, unless they knew it was I, AWESOMENESS360 of SimplePlanes, and I knew who they were on the website too, it might just be awkward or weird. If it was some random smaller user that just likes what I do or thinks it's cool to see me irl (who would ever lmao), then I guess it'd be less awkward, I feel like it would almost be worse if I was met by another platinum user with a high point count, then it might turn into some kind of "everything you can do I can do better" type of interaction and nobody needs that, I know I don't.

Maybe if we were friends on the website and interacted regularly it'd be fun, I do occasionally wonder what some of y'all higher users are actually doing with your lives aside from SimplePlanes.
I like it, although I will say the lack of landing gear is a bit odd. Could easily be fixed by moving the position of the drop tanks to the inner wing, and then putting rear landing gear where the drop tanks once were. Also, a duplicated part not attached to the aircraft falls off when you load it into the world, on the left horizontal stabilizer.
Otherwise, the build quality is simple but nice looking, and it has a realistic feel to it, both in its handling and plausibility.

Nice cinematics, short and sweet. Good usage of different weather settings to get dynamic/interesting lighting.

A flying submarine that can function underwater as normal, but can also fly like a plane using extendable/retractable wings
mods are gonna have a field day with this one (potential training/rite of passage for crazyplaness?)
Cool thumbnail
Seriously what was with Germany's obsession with asymmetrical aircraft designs during WWII, nice little replica of this concept!
From the thumbnail, I thought it was a large ship of some sort. This thing looks really angry lol, really awesome work so far!

@ToeTips not anymore unfortunately, Ai has been pretty alright with hands for some time now.
Very nice SU-34, low part count but high visual fidelity. Fantastic work!
Beautiful F1 car.
Looks awesome, love the livery and the squadron catchphrase

If your device can handle it, it's very fun to spawn in like a hundred of these and just... experience them. Oddly fun.
