Copying planes is against the rules. Posting planes for YouTubers is not. However, since this does seem to be annoying the community, I propose the following:
Building planes for YouTubers is fine
Copying planes for YouTubers is not
If you build for a YouTuber, tag it with the channel's tag (by clicking Edit Tags). If that tag doesn't exist, let us know.
Do not name your plane for a YouTuber. Example "WeaselZone CHECK THIS OUT!" is a bad airplane name. It's spammy and annoying. Instead, name the plane something cool, give it an actual creative name and then tag it with the WeaselZone tag. Let the tag do the work. It's much easier for a YouTuber to find your plane from a tag than from a name.
Probably similar issues to this discussion. Here's what Nathan suggested:
Try this.. right click the game in your library and select 'Properties'. Click the 'Set Launch Options' button. Type (or paste) "-force-d3d11" in the box (without quotes) and click 'OK'. Then close the properties dialog. Now try launching the game. Does that fix the issue?
@Shrey If you send me your OSX receipt we can get you a Steam key. Otherwise, the update for the Mac App Store will be out next month around the same time as the mobile version.
@Nickasaurus It was a nickname that Philip's brother used to call me when I was a kid. I've known Philip since kindergarten. It is very hard to decide on a name for a company!
@WalrusAircraft It's just a video, not a live stream. You don't need to wait until the channel is live, just wait through the commercial and then you can skip right to 1:28:00 and see it.
@WalrusAircraft lol, I know! I appreciate you on there helping him with some suggestions. Also, did you see when he flew the toaster? He really enjoyed it.
@Stingray That is weird, if the game is working at all for you now, you should have this folder: Macintosh HD ▸ Users ▸ YOURUSERNAME ▸ Library ▸ Application Support ▸ Jundroo
Thanks for letting us know.
@Jasperjl Not yet. We are hoping end of January.
This is great!
This is amazing, it's even better than what I expected. Absolutely incredible job, BoxGlow. Also, I love that profile pic.
@kikasshes You're welcome, thanks for making cool planes!
@dropmajor Yes, just go to your plane's web page and click the drop down menu and click Edit.
@AeroEngineering Okay, added.
@Static okay, I added that tag.
@ArtOfCode How many different YouTubers are people making videos for? I was thinking it's probably around 3-5.
@WeaselZone Thanks for the great videos, we have all really enjoyed them. I made some new rules to help sort out this contention.
Now hopefully as players build more planes you can easily find them with your tag.
@Rohan Currently, no. Only mods can create them. But you can suggest some. What do you have in mind?

@Sirstupid You need the mouse wheel ,but many laptop track pads have a scroll feature when you slide your finger along the side of it.
Contact us through our contact page, link is at the bottom of the page.
wow this thing is loaded to the gills! Nice plane!
Congrats!
Looks amazing! That pitch control could use a little improvement though!
Amazing build, @RocketLL. Those engines sound like some kind of alien technology!

Awesome plane, thanks for the great video!
@DragonKing Yes, you can request a Steam key here. Contact me through http://jundroo.com/contact if you have any problems.
@Martijnproper The scroll wheel zooms in and out on PC
@AeroEngineering It's a great idea.
@Layne Shouldn't have anything to do with the update. Backing up planes on SimplePlanes on iOS is more difficult, but you can check my post here.
@jimbojet Thanks! Happy holidays to you as well!
@aircraftarsenal123 Mac App Store version will be out the same time as mobile, hopefully end of January.
@Lucasmah We will do a beta on Google Play (Android) and iOS.
@Shrey If you send me your OSX receipt we can get you a Steam key. Otherwise, the update for the Mac App Store will be out next month around the same time as the mobile version.
We hope to get on Humble at some point after the break.
@RBEEDUDE1 On PC autopilot is bound to keypad Enter.
@Gg1234 Email me your receipt. First, contact me using the Contact link in the footer of this page.

@WalrusAircraft Here's the video. Skip to about 1:28:00
@Johawks1976 If you bought it on Gumroad, you can get a free Steam key. Check the links I posted in the post at the top.
@carlvasquez Please contact me through our website: http://jundroo.com/contact.
@Gdc2001 Yes, probably mid January.
@Astron1 Yep, you can attach directly to the plane, the bombs are smart enough to know how to detach without a detacher.
@WalrusAircraft lol, I know! I appreciate you on there helping him with some suggestions. Also, did you see when he flew the toaster? He really enjoyed it.
Have you tried restarting your device? If that doesn't work, try re-installing. Make sure you back your planes up first.
@GINGER007 Thanks, that means a lot.
It's a great idea, I agree.
@Bluebugplanes We will try our best to get all weapons in the mobile update.
@phoenixzis 1.3.4.0 is the currently released version on Steam.
@ThePCGamer You can request your Steam key here: http://jundroo.com/service/Steam/RequestKey?gameName=SimplePlanes
@WalrusAircraft Hmmm, strange.
@RedBeard66 Thanks!

Thanks for the great video you posted on YouTube!
This airplane got a lot of love in this video.
