  • Beta Suggestion (to all the mobile users complaining) 9.1 years ago

    We aren't going to change the lights. What you are suggesting would be point lights, which would kill performance.

    Can you provide a link about the buggy shocks? Is it when they are used with the resizable wheels?

    What new light settings would you like to see?

  • Beta Suggestion (to all the mobile users complaining) 9.1 years ago

    @FrankieB Can you verify you are running v1.4.0.5 in the about page in the menu? I have tried your airplane and the landing gear work fine for me, especially when I disable suspension on them.

  • A question for the developers 9.1 years ago

    @Itamar3553 Okay I think it's working now. I disabled the collisions on the wheels. Here's the link.

    If you look at the XML for the wheels, you'll notice the 'disableAircraftCollisions' attribute:

    <Part id="57" partType="Wheel-Resizable-1" materials="6,1,6" disableAircraftCollisions="true">

  • A question for the developers 9.1 years ago

    Were you using the ResizableWheels enableColliders attribute in the XML for the wheels? This has been superseded by the disabeAircraftCollisions attribute (at the Part level). Link me your design and I can investigate.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.5 9.1 years ago

    @BeryllCorp Of course. Here's an example:

    <Part id="5" partType="SmallRotator-1" position="0,0,0 materials="0,3,10">
    <InputController.State activationGroup="0" invert="false" min="-1" max="1" input="VTOL" />
    <JointRotator.State range="90" speed="0.5" disableBaseMesh="true" />
    </Part>

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.5 9.1 years ago

    @JMicah4 The disableAircraftCollisions attribute can be used in a Part tag in the XML to prevent it from hitting other parts. This provides a way to make retractable landing gear with the new resizable wheels, shocks, and rotators. By setting this to true for those parts, they can safely retract up into the fuselage of the plane without exploding.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.5 9.1 years ago

    @BeryllCorp Yep, and thanks!

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.5 9.1 years ago

    @Mod advanced settings for controlling slip settings for wheels in case someone really wanted to customize how their vehicle performs.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.5 9.1 years ago

    @DarkLithium Philip implemented it, so thank him! thanks for the idea!

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @XxcreedexX No new islands for mobile. Sorry.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @DarkLithium Ah, that explains a lot

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Chevygmoney I'm just kidding, I think the wheels will be much better with the next update. Wheels and all new parts are coming to mobile.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @DarkLithium No, we are working hard to make sure the resizable wheels are unusable. We're calling them resizable wont's.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @FutureAviationTech yes. Only 16 people have signed up so far.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Thefalloutplayr Cthulhu definitely not coming to mobile.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Chevygmoney I'm not sure, but I would recommend yes.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @BroPlanes Assume that no new islands are coming to mobile.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Luke92778 same as Steam version.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @TheLatentImage No, you should still be on the list.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Thefalloutplayr Only about 15

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Shmexysmpilot I'm not aware of any open beta for iOS. They have a limit on how many people can do it, unless they've changed since the last time I ran a beta through them. Google Play does have an open beta, but I prefer to stick with the Google group approach.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @TheMasterSoldier We love you too.

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @AceSquadIndustries What kind of device do you have?

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @Thefalloutplayr Your name and email will be uploaded to the Martha Stewart's Home Living Newsletter. No, but really I just give it to Apple to sign you up for the beta test.

  • MA 82 War Hawk 9.1 years ago

    @MaleticAirplanes You have some really beautiful planes!

  • Dev Notes for 1.4 update 9.1 years ago

    @JacobHardy64 Yes, I believe iOS still uses the TestFlight app.

  • annoying bug with the new wheels 9.1 years ago

    @slimetech Can you please upload your car so I can investigate this issue. Thanks!

  • Missing terrain on Wright airport 9.1 years ago

    We looked for this today, but we couldn't find it. Could someone please send us a screenshot? Thanks! @NIGHTWING1 @Flightsonic @PlanesGuy888

  • Update- lets get something straight 9.1 years ago

    @aircraftarsenal123 Okay, contact us via the contact link at the bottom right and we can work it out.

  • A simple request to cut lag in the steam beta 9.1 years ago

    We will see what we can do. Thanks for the idea.

  • BUG: Re-sizable Wheels Looses Grip Climbing more than 30º Slope 9.1 years ago

    Is suspension disabled? Can you upload the car you are using?

  • Missing terrain on Wright airport 9.1 years ago

    What quality level do you have your terrain set at?

  • [Bug] Rocket Expert Steam achievement 9.1 years ago

    Thanks for letting us know.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.2 9.1 years ago

    @CanofBeans That is to prevent HTML injection into the post, which could allow a security vulnerability.

  • How many upvotes can this get??!! 9.1 years ago

    Please don't ask for votes like this.

  • Update- lets get something straight 9.1 years ago

    Yes but if you don't want to wait we do offer a free Steam key to people who own the Mac App Store version. Just contact us via the contact link at the bottom of the page with proof of purchase.

  • Currently the most realistic APC in 1.143? 9.1 years ago

    Please give it another try with the newest version (v1.4.0.4) and let me know if you think things are working better.

  • Cant download Simpleplanes 9.1 years ago

    @Manboy Restart your device. Try logging out of Google Play and logging back in with the same account used to purchase.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.3 9.1 years ago

    @NovaTopaz The disable aircraft property should work on any part. Unfortunately, the rotators are only able to rotate around one axis.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.4 9.1 years ago

    @TheLatentImage It's a good idea, we actually talked about something similar today. Would be be cool to click on a part and toggle it's disableAircraftCollision state on/off too.

  • Beta bug 9.1 years ago

    @kikasshes I have considered it, and would love to do it, but I just can't make that promise. We are already slipping on schedule.

  • Cant download Simpleplanes 9.1 years ago

    Try clearing your Google Play cache and try re-installing.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.4 9.1 years ago

    @BoxGlow we are just trying to keep the wing properties as simple as possible for new users. It looks very weird to cycle through Trim for control surface input and then have another trim setting right below that to enable/disable the actual trim setting.

  • New Wheel/Suspension 1.4.0.4 Thank you!!!! 9.1 years ago

    Great! I'm glad to hear it!

  • annoying bug with the new wheels 9.1 years ago

    Can you verify in the About page of the main menu that you are running v1.4.0.4?

  • Beta bug 9.1 years ago

    @kikasshes okay, thanks for letting me know!

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.3 9.1 years ago

    @rabarbermoes23 There's a bug in the current beta with new wheels. Here, try this wheel. Just yank it off my design and save it as a subassembly and use it until we can get the next beta out.

  • Steam Beta 1.4.0.3 Bug Report 9.1 years ago

    Thanks for the video. Yes, please upload the car and I'll take a look.

  • Flyweight - Oceanview Speedway 9.1 years ago

    @GrumpyRacing Sorry, no, we are just slammed with this beta. Hopefully next week.

  • Beta Update - v1.4.0.2 9.1 years ago

    @BeryllCorp Regarding hinge rotators, that is the intended behavior. If you want them to not be stiff, increase their range of motion, but set their Speed to 0 (floppy).
