@CirrusX I'm glad you like it:) unfortunately, I'm not taking any requests at the moment but I have one more destroyer on my list of plans, a fictional Austro-Hungarian destroyer from WW1 (tho she is not gonna be made any soon either, I want to finish some other projects first)
@YarisSedan Unfortunately, this solution presents some problems too:
1. How could they generate IDs for people who already purchased SP1 (becuase for this system to work, SP1 needs to have this feature too because the devs announced that both games will be using this website), they'd need to confirm all exsiting accounts one-by-one or ask the players to cofirm themselves.
2. Jundroo is a small team and this solution is a niche solution for a niche problem (it's not like the website is currently in anarchy because of a few ban evaders, mods usually deal with them as soon as they become a big enough problem), so Jundroo would probably waste time allocating resources to developing this instead of more important features
3. How could you match up accounts for people who have the game on multiple platforms (for example, I have the game both on Steam and on Android, which would mean I would have 2 IDs, which one would I have to use?)
4. As I said, pirates (and thus alts too) could circumvent this by all using the same one ID that they somehow get their hands on (this can be partially solved by setting a limit to how many accounts on ID can register but then there would probably be some other flaw that Im not thinking of rn) so again, it's a lot of effort for a feature that could still be circumvented if someone is dedicated enough.
Hence why I said that Jundroo will likely never make this. It's far easier to just have the moderator team investigate them case-by-case and try to keep things in check manually
@YarisSedan A sytem like that would be possible by matching the ip addresses (which the mods can already do but they only use it as a last resort to confirm if an account is an alt) but unfortunately, VPN can circumvent even that (hence why mods dont use this too often)
I believe the only solution (and this might be an unpopular solution) would be to add a feature to the game itself where upon purchasing a copy, it generates a unique ID for that copy of the game and this ID would be required for registration (it would be matched against some kind of database so people can't just make one up). This way, mods or even an automated system like the one you described, could easily check if two registered accounts used the same ID for registration thus determine whose alt an account is.
This would probably also deny players with pirated copies from interacting on the website (or, it would turn into an "I'm Spartacus" situation where all the players who use pirated copies would share the same ID) but it would make the website a bit more secure (it would probably also deny all those virus link bots). There would probably be ways to circumvent even this because every system has flaws but it would still somewhat reduce the number of alt related issues. I dont think Jundroo would make something like this tho, because of multiple reasons
@Boeing727200F Also dont forget that using alts to evade bans (so like, if one's main account gets banned and they use an alt account to stay active) is also not allowed. Gotta type this out because recently I've seen way too many users think that if they get banned they can just return with an alt like nothing happened and then be surprised when the mods ban their alts too (and make the original ban's time longer as well)
@Monarchii As Shiro said, there is no FT, it's just a bunch of floppy hinge rotators with 30° range (I limited it to that so it cant fold on itself and the effect looks better that way). I used the same system on all my recent ships' flags, so you can check it out on them too if you dont want to wait until I publish L'Adroit
I have multiple: ShiroNeko, EternalDarkness and LocalDealer, all insanely good ship (and other stuff) builders. MisterT and PlanariaLab for their impressive work with mods and FT respectively. L1nus for his brilliant cars (he has amazing planes too but Im more interested in his cars)
Edit: I just realized this should only be about people who were active this year so I removed Weaverfish, the rest still apply
Yeah, it's been around for some time, my first few ships use flares as secondary weaponry. They are especially useful against the AI fleets because the game doesn't register it as weaponry so the ships wont shoot back when you shoot at them with flares.
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 Thanks, unfortunately, I don't do auto tag lists simply for the fact that I'd always forget about them lol, sorry about that but follow me or post T on my teaser posts if you wish to be notified about my future builds
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 The Titanic itself is finished but at the moment I have no plans for finishing the sinking version (if that's what you are asking about)
@YarisSedan The FT code is from L1nus (I included this information in the description of both cars btw) so you should ask him for permission. The Pontiac Firebird is also made by L1nus but it's an unreleased build he gave me to make screenshtos with.
@kaidenmcateer I just tested it on my computer and I didn't experience any such glitch (I don't have VR so I can't test it in VR but I asked someone to test it back when before it was uploaded and they didn't have any problem with it either) so sorry, I can't help
@Lameguy Unfortunately, no. It has over 4000 parts. I had plans to make a mobile friendly version but I lost motivitation to make it so it was cancelled
@natemomog there is no use, look at all the people who have been asking for an update for about a year now. MisterT probably turned off notifications and just doesn't give a damn about it. It would be great if he at least made a pinned to comment to explain why he won't update it (I'd even be okay with it if he said that he just doesn't want to bother with it or if there is some technical limitation, just say something, anything) but nope, not even that.
Edit: There is now a pinned comment explaining the reason. consider my comment not relevant anymore
@TheOfficalMarylander the website already has a system in place that stops accounts below a specific point number (30 points iirc) from upvoting posts (to prevent upvote farming) so I guess they could tweak that system to get it the way that you described. Im definitely in favour of it.
@WritersCrusadersAirCo2 you don't have to repost it, just put some credit in the description, that sounds easier to me. The problem was never the fact that you used other people's work (I did it myself in the past too), just put their names in the description and it's all good
@WritersCrusadersAirCo2 well you didn't replace everything: the driver's vision port is still from LD's Tiger tank. Normally I'd have reported this to moderators already, but to show you I'm trying to help you with your "redemption", I'm simply notifying you about this so you can fix your mistake. But I'd like to remind you to our conversation we had in the comment section of your previous alt: if you truly want to redeem yourself in the eyes of the community, your track record must be spotless, otherwise, people will not believe you truly changed. (and that means not just not stealing, but also not doing any other rule violations either. Yes, I did notice you renamed your WCACWasteland account and then used it upvote yourself, that's not cool man). Yes, it's tough, but that's just how it is: losing trust is easy, getting it back is a thousand times harder. So do your best, good luck!
Posting teasers as builds is mostly problematic because in this case, it's violating the "misleading thumbnail" rule as you are just uploading a cockpit part but have a full plane on your thumbnail.
As others have already suggested here, posting teasers as forums or videos would be better.
@PlaneFlightX Awesome! hey, do you happen to have any other maps from mikoyanster archived? I'm specifically looking for tank test map 1 or 2 if you have those?
@Lwillswith2sentryguns Thanks! And sorry, I don't do auto-tags simply because I have the memory of a gold fish and I always forget about them, so the best I can suggest is follow me so you'll see my posts in your jetstream or comment T on my teaser posts whenever I post one about a car or plane
@Lwillswith2sentryguns For now I turned my attention back to one of my ship projects. You can follow the progress of projects on my Updates page where you can also find my planned projects (I do have a few more cars on my plans but my next release will most likely be a ship)
@CirrusX I'm glad you like it:) unfortunately, I'm not taking any requests at the moment but I have one more destroyer on my list of plans, a fictional Austro-Hungarian destroyer from WW1 (tho she is not gonna be made any soon either, I want to finish some other projects first)

@YarisSedan Sure you can use the code with credit.
@YarisSedan The FT code is from L1nus (I included this information in the description of both cars btw) so you should ask him for permission. The Pontiac Firebird is also made by L1nus but it's an unreleased build he gave me to make screenshtos with.
@YarisSedan I'm not really interested in making that and I have a ton of other projects I want to work on anyways, sorry

@kaidenmcateer what is the problem with it? (and why are you making this comment here instead of making it on the Olympic's post?)
@spectre118 Interesting, I have never heard about that one before, thanks for the info!
@Zanedavid I'm glad you like it:)
+1@rondavison You need either the underwater camera mod or the ocean mod to be able to see underwater and use this build.
@Boeing727200F Okay, I'll add her to my list, sounds like an interesting project:)
@Boeing727200F ah yes, that was the HMS Victoria (1887), an ironclad battleship. Would you like to see her as a wreck exploration build?
