We don't have any plans for any more major updates after 1.8 for SimplePlanes, but that is not set in stone. I hope you'll consider checking out SR2. We've put a lot of effort into improving the building process. The fuselage parts have been improved a lot, parts support texturing, the designer tools are much better, etc. I can't wait to see what players will be able to build with all the new features.

@F104Deathtrap It is fun to play with. While testing, I disabled drag on all parts on my aircraft and got up to about 20,000 mph before my aircraft exploded.
@PlaneBuild0512 We're knee deep in rocket science at the moment. After SR2 releases early access maybe we can free up some dev time to work on the 1.8 update for SP. We're a small team and we keep struggling to get things done when we try to work on too many things at once.
@helilover03 Sadly, I don't spend much time building planes anymore. About the only time that I spend building planes is when I'm testing new features.
@jakecharlie When you download a plane from the website through the browser, it's just a *.splane file, which only contains the ID of the plane you want to download. This is then fed to the game which then makes another web request to download the actual plane data. I suspect that Windows is blocking SimplePlanes. You can add SimplePlanes as an allowed application. Instructions here.

@Bigolfishboy I created the tutorial plane while developing the building tutorial in SP1. I can't honestly remember if I created it from scratch or if I started with someone else's design and then tweaked it from there. It's been a long time, lol. I believe this was late 2015, just before the Steam release.
The The primary goal was to create something that was easy to for a new player to build without too many steps and something that would fly okay for the flight tutorial.
@BRNavyPilot The minimum system requirements for SP2 on Steam include a dedicated GPU. Since your system uses integrated graphics, that’s likely the cause of the crashing. You can try updating your graphics drivers to see if that helps during the next playtest, but the game may still have performance and stability issues without a dedicated GPU.
The image and xml links for this post have been fixed. If anyone else has an issue with their craft, please tag me on the post and I'll try to fix it. I'm sorry for the inconvenience.
@LJh1 Thanks for bringing this to our attention. what issues are they having exactly? If you can provide more information about what step in the registration process they are getting stuck, what errors they are seeing, etc, that would help us investigate the issue.
@JanissaryAviation Actually, I misspoke. It should ask you to re-verify when logging in again, but the site should not be logging you out every 15 minutes. That sounds like a configuration issue with your browser, likely because cookies are disabled or being cleared periodically.
@JanissaryAviation It shouldn't ask for a verification code every time you log in unless your browser has cookies disabled or you're clearing them. The system relies on cookies to recognize your browser, so if it can't find them, it treats your login as coming from a new device. If you're experiencing this repeatedly, check your browser settings to ensure cookies are enabled and not being cleared automatically.
@YarisSedan I pushed an update. Let me know if it's fixed on your end. I also made a bunch of changes related to caching, so let me know if you notice anything else is broken!
@PlanariaLab Thanks for your understanding and proactive approach. If any issues arise with your mod, we’ll contact you. We appreciate your contributions to the community!
Deadline extended by one hour.

+1The max file size is 2MB. How big was the file you were attempting to upload?
The comparison with the url ID is case sensitive.
If you have some XML that demonstrates these problems, please send it my way so I can investigate.

+1I think it's a random network issue that causes this but I'll see if I can make our system fail a bit earlier instead of making a corrupted post.
+1I enjoyed checking it out in VR today. It’s a bit too much for a Quest 2 so I couldn’t curate it but it’s a very nice build. Nice work!
+1Nice first plane, but it does run out of fuel really fast!
