To answer a basic question, my "modding" is with the XML file. If you have an Android device or a PC you can adjust the game’s existing parts. If you run iOS you might not be unable to adjust files, although I've heard jail broken devices can support XML adjustments.
How to adjust XML files (PC Version):
1) Navigate to C:\Users[your account user_name]\AppData\LocalLow\Jundroo\SimplePlanes\AircraftDesigns
2) Open the aircraft you want to hack (I use TextPad to edit in, but notepad++ works just as well).
3) Edit the attribute (such as the nose cone)
4) Save the XML then reload (open) the aircraft in Simple Planes.
OSX Users: @SpiritusRaptor has provided the following instructions for you:
Under older OSX versions, you can locate your files to edit at: /Users/NAME/Library/Containers/com.jundroo.SimplePlanesOSX/Data/Library/Application Support/com.jundroo.SimplePlanesOSX/AircraftDesigns/...
With the latest version you can find the folder here: /Users/NAME/Library/Application Support/unity.Jundroo.SimplePlanes
Make sure you use a text editor that does not use CR (carriage returns) as SimplePlanes and OSX will not recognize these files as text. As an suggestion, you can use NotePad.app from the AppStore.
You can do different things with different parts. In the XML, the parts have attributes. A part has an ID, type, position, rotation, center of mass, drag, materials (for part color), and state. Other parts such as wings and engines have other unique attributes that you can also adjust.
Over the coming days, I’ll update the notes below with more specific details on how you can adjust parts to make more interesting creations. I’ll go into each part and will describe how you can get the most out of it, and will also share some tips and tricks when you embark on large creations.
1.0: Basic Changes:
1.1 Moving Parts: Parts can be moved around by position in an X,Y,Z configuration. As an example a block in the game might appear as [position="0.4999986,3.470854,2.109966"]. Each block is .5 meters in real world terms, so if you wanted to move the block a half meter to the enter, y
@rocketLL I think you need to make a policy about politics on the site. There has been a lot of trump spam, and I think it may become a problem that could get out of hand
