@CrazyCatZe @Astoundingcameron @PositivePlanes @Seanbon007 @AerialFighterSnakes @SuperSix We are hoping to get the mobile version out this year. We have been holding off on the mobile version because you can't do early access on mobile and we want the game to be solid enough that we won't run the risk of needing to make any major changes that will affect player crafts. Also, once we release on mobile, it will slow all future updates for all platforms after that point. We can release updates so quickly when we're only releasing on Steam. I do feel that the game is feeling much more solid now and I'm hoping that we can start making real progress towards the mobile version soon™. Really the last remaining task that can have a big impact on the stability of the game is campaign mode, so we want to work that first or at least simultaneously with the mobile port.
We upgraded to Unity 2018.3 which requires a newer version of Android. I'm sorry, but there's nothing we can do now to support older versions of Android.
Try restarting your device. Also make sure you aren’t requesting the desktop version of the website. If that doesn’t help then you may need to reinstall. You will lose planes on your device so make sure you upload any planes you want to keep.
@BlueCitrus lol, well that’s not much of an improvement. turning off music can help reduce the memory requirement, that’s why I suggested it. What kind of device do you have?
I looked into it this morning, but I was not able to make any progress and I have to get back to SR2. If you find any more information, please update this post. I have added this to the bug list to investigate the next time we are actively working on SP.
Wind producing devices are not included. Leaf blowers and electrical fans are ideal, but we will make sure it is compatible with hand fans as well. @blackvultureaeroespace
This craft is not large enough to be affected by the drag calculation optimization made in 1.8 (its volume is about 10x too small). You can try using the Overload mod to disable drag on the offending parts until your craft is balanced the way that you want it to be. The dragScale and calculateDrag xml properties were created for this purpose.
@enzoBoeing757 It's very difficult for me to keep things straight when I'm responding to across different posts because I don't know where we started this conversation. It might be best if you just email us at games@jundroo.com
@CALVIN232 Unfortunately we don't have any kind of zoom sensitivity options in SimplePlanes, but some devices have software that might let you customize that. I think Logitech does, but not certain. You could also try poking around in Windows and see if you can tweak it. Maybe try something like this?
If you are using mods, try disabling them and see if that helps. Also, make sure your system is up to date with video card drivers and Windows updates.
Did you get SimplePlanes from the Mac App Store or from Steam? What version of SimplePlanes are you using (you can check in the About page in the main menu in SimplePlanes).
@breitling I've been looking into it this morning and it appears that Unity doesn't work properly on OSX 10.9.5 even though they to claim to support OSX 10.8+. Are you not able to update to OSX 10.10? You can also try downgrading SimplePlanes to the 1.7 branch in the BETAS tab in the Steam client's Properties window for SimplePlanes until you are able to update to OSX 10.10.
@tylerdeveneuxmusic If you wouldn't mind, it would be great if you could check out the beta for Steam. We have found the issue and have code to move all of your stuff back to the original location at ~/Library/Application Support/unity.Jundroo.SimplePlanes. Let us know if you have any issues.
@CRJ900Pilot I just downloaded BogdanX's mig and it appears to work correctly in the newest version from the Mac App Store. Let me know if you are still seeing the issue.
@CRJ900Pilot New version is now approved. Let me know if the internet and joysticks are working for you now. Do you have a link for a plane that has the tail hook problem?
@CRJ900Pilot That should also be fixed in the next update as well. I submitted to Apple this morning, so hopefully tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.
@Efacel Yes, I tried the sample plane. I could see that the prop diameter was 1259 when first loaded, but when I opened the part properties it only allowed me to change the diameter between 50" and 150".
We also need to find out where SimplePlanes is looking for the new AircraftDesigns. It should also be one of those locations listed above, and it should have the new stock craft "Gator 2.xml". If you copy your AircraftDesigns into the new folder, they should show up in SimplePlanes.
If you are having this issue, I have a few questions:
What location did you find your missing airplanes?
What location was SimplePlanes looking for the new airplanes?
What version of macOS are you using?
Where did you originally get SimplePlanes? Steam, Mac App Store, or Gumroad?
Do you currently play SimplePlanes through Steam or the Mac App Store?
If you are using Steam, do you have Steam Cloud Sync enabled?
We are not able to reproduce this in the latest version of SimplePlanes on iOS. When I load this plane I am able to change its blade diameter from 50 inches to 150 inches. Does this only happen on your tablet? Is your tablet running the latest version of SimplePlanes?

+4@CrazyCatZe hoping to get mobile SR2 out this year.
+2@Tessemi no plans to bring SR2’s jet engines to SP as they have a lot of dependencies SR2’s code base. Perhaps SP2....someday. Why did you refund SR2?
@Stormfur When you are on the home page does the URL start with http or https? What browser are you using?
What browser are you using? Have you tried a different one? You can also try clearing your browser cache and restart your phone.

Some more things you can try include:
+1Re-install SimplePlanes. Be careful as this will wipe your planes off your device, so upload any you want to keep.
Ensure your Android OS is up to date.
@BlueCitrus lol, well that’s not much of an improvement. turning off music can help reduce the memory requirement, that’s why I suggested it. What kind of device do you have?

Thanks for letting us know. I've logged the issue.

+6We are currently focusing on SimpleRockets 2, but I have added this to the list to investigate the next time we are actively working on SimplePlanes.
@Chancey21 :D Actually, it was Kevin who took the screenshot with your plane. He didn't upvote it either!
+3Can you send your log file to games@jundroo.com so we can investigate? You can find your log file here:

+11Try restarting your device and try downloading again. Also, what airplane are you trying to download and what kind of iOS device are you using?
That’s really cool. Launching vengeance with science! I was able to fire it over Wright Isles from Yeager.

New with 1.8 you can also shift click to yank a single part off a group which I find quite handy. @CALVIN232 @destroyerP @CruzerBlade

We removed SP from Amazon Underground quite a while ago, however it is still available on the Amazon App Store.
+3@enzoBoeing757 What device are you playing on?
@hobbitfrog Updated! Good luck!
@hobbitfrog Sure, can you provide a link to the challenge?
@O5c444r It should be fixed in 1.8.6 and 1.8.305.
Did you get SimplePlanes from the Mac App Store or from Steam? What version of SimplePlanes are you using (you can check in the About page in the main menu in SimplePlanes).
@Gravity Yes, you can now select older versions of SimplePlanes through the BETAS tab in the Steam properties window for SimplePlanes.
@breitling please contact us at games@jundroo.com
+2@FuzzyAircraftProductions What device are you playing on? Can you send us a screenshot of what you are seeing?

+1@CRJ900Pilot iOS or Android? I'm using version 1.8.3.1 on iOS and the arresting hook looks correct on BogdanX's Mig.
@CRJ900Pilot I just downloaded BogdanX's mig and it appears to work correctly in the newest version from the Mac App Store. Let me know if you are still seeing the issue.
@CRJ900Pilot Thanks for letting me know. Does your joystick work now?
@AndrewGarrison Thanks for letting me know. Does your joystick work now?
Edit: Yep, I tagged myself. Probably should go get some sleep at this point...
@Shockin I'm glad to hear you got it working. Thank you so much for providing answers to my questions. That is very helpful!

That appears to be correct, SimplePlanes is looking in the wrong place for them.
Your missing AircraftDesigns folder should be at one of the following places:
We also need to find out where SimplePlanes is looking for the new AircraftDesigns. It should also be one of those locations listed above, and it should have the new stock craft "Gator 2.xml". If you copy your AircraftDesigns into the new folder, they should show up in SimplePlanes.

@CPRCpublic Thanks for letting me know. I'll get this fixed early next week.
