Hi! I would like to save this plane so my sandbox AI can fly it. I tried fixing some kinks and made the plane according to my standards. you can download it here
Drag and drop the sub-assembly at the top left corner of the screen.
Dont use parts with VTOL inputs. Same with Trim controls. Wing slabs with pitch control surfaces usually have Trim enabled by default, just turn them off
@redbear89 Awesome! I'll check later since I still have things to do. If there are extra wings I'll just pull them down myself so you wont bother fixing and reuploading another update for this plane. Thank you! you have gained yourself a follower!
@realluochen9999 I'm gonna hijack this thread since your question is now answered, sorry (I dont want to spam the forums)
.
@NathanMikeska is the AI not being able to use missiles in Sandbox a bug or an intentional behavior?
This plane is beautiful...
BUT!!!!
why are your engines so weak?
.
and If you can reduce the wing count to just 7 wings max, I would happily save this plane in my sandbox so AI can fly them (tip: structural panels does not count into the wing limit)
@DavstrWrexham It flies really well.. The AI could land the plane without much problem.. There was one time where it was shot down by the escort destroyers but that was because it flew very close over them
at last.. a c130 that has less than 150 parts.. with some modifications I would be able to make this plane AI friendly so it could fly in my sandbox.. thank you!
I have not tested this, but... put wings on the front and the back of the car and rotate them slightly downwards by doing some xml modding or using HellFireKoder's Fine Tuner mod.. It should theoretically force your car downwards as you would want it
.
if that fails, put more deadweight at the bottom of the car so its CoM is at the lowest possible place, this would increase the force required to blow the car away from the tracks but it would also decrease its performance
its a bug.. it probably got smaller because the devs fixed the issue or some particle effects not scaling properly when the part is resized with scale="x,x,x"
sometimes I forget how simple planes in SP can be and still flies great. Thank you!
.
With some modifications and a new paint job, I was able to make a better version of this plane. It will forever be saved in my laptop as one of the planes flown by the AI
probably, since we can collide at him it is also possible to land on top of him. I would imagine you will be "hovering" a few meters above him instead because Cthulhu has a large collision box. Plus, he constantly moves around so you wont be landing there for a very long time
just save it in your device??
or
do you need to find all your plane files? Its been a long time since I've installed SP on android but I think the plane files is found in Android/data/com.jundroo.simpleplanes (or something similar)/AircraftDesigns.
@NathanMikeska I downloaded the new patch and found a bug which lets me target planes outside of the targeting circle when they are very close to my plane.
edit: Here using guardian missile and Here using inferno missile
you can! You will have to edit the XML entry of the beacon light in question!. in there, look for input="None" and change its value to input="Pitch"
.
as proof take a look at my loader, it has working brake lights and levers are lit when you move them.
@flyingdj I've been playing since the very first version. Me and others have been chatting with the devs in SP's Reddit page and is some occasions one of the devs would describe how parts gets damaged and explode. My explanation is somewhat simplified but the core idea is the same as how the devs implemented it in the game
Each parts has some sort of Health points.. When you hit the ground, health points decrease. When the it decrease to a certain level the part breaks off. When it fully depletes the part explode. When the parts explode it inflicts a good amount of damage in surrounding blocks. If surrounding blocks explode too, a chain reaction occurs and the plane disintegrate.
@jamer57108 sorry for the late reply, of course you can! You dont even need to request permission as long as you give credit or make you plane show up as successor.
.
@ISA03 I'll try.. This plane is just accidentally AI friendly because I did not expect rotating the wings instead of using control surfaces works really well. If I ever make another "plane" I'll make sure it could complete atleast one race when AI controlled.
.
@ScarecrowAeronautics I know exactly what country that is.. Good luck sa ating mga pinoy.. Sana hindi manalo so Marcos at maka-pasok si Dick sa senado.
@MoterKade You can do that if you want to control you car manually. but (for now) your AI opponent does not know how to brake/reverse or even use yaw for steering.
.
Hopefully, the devs will add a real car race that could handle cars good enough because we now have 3 tracks to race our vehicles

Beautiful! Thank you! and I was not able to disassemble it thoroughly, but can I trust you put just 7 wings max on this?
@palp a double loop at gold prix
great! i could actually fly this thing but I could not land it properly because the engines doesnt slow down fast enough. Still an amazing design
AI COULD FLY THIS PLANE!!
(until it decides to do a loop)

LOL! I accidentally clicked "remove upvote" because I didnt know I already upvoted this.

this plane has a long line of ancestors.. and good thing you didnt simply copy.. you actually modified it until you arrived in this iteration.
at last.. a c130 that has less than 150 parts.. with some modifications I would be able to make this plane AI friendly so it could fly in my sandbox.. thank you!

@MediocrePlanes I have.. i sent you a reply just now.. I hope you understand my reason
@MediocrePlanes on reddit. I go by the same name
@MediocrePlanes you give the most amazing prices!
@JovianPatyep, I noticed that. your crossbow is still a good concept..
creative!
this is all messed up now, you should reupload a fixed version
can you also make a medium sized commercial plane that is AI friendly? (7 wings and 150 total parts)
its a bug.. it probably got smaller because the devs fixed the issue or some particle effects not scaling properly when the part is resized with
scale="x,x,x"sometimes I forget how simple planes in SP can be and still flies great. Thank you!

Great job! I see you are 100 points away from platinum

a wreaking ball would be awesome
Thank you for checking my trucks out!
your shear is a really nice mechanism!
@SM1314 yeah, it will make the glider more stable.
you should put a stabilizer at the tail of the glider
@MisterMasada oops, didnt noticed that.. you could use activation groups
you can! You will have to edit the XML entry of the beacon light in question!. in there, look for
input="None"and change its value toinput="Pitch".
as proof take a look at my loader, it has working brake lights and levers are lit when you move them.
I cant believe how stable it is.
@Feanor thanks!
some lights fall off at start but thats OK
shameless self-promotion

Drag then on the top left corner

You need to add them yourself. Here is a good info on how to add them
@MoterKade Infernus, it looks like a blocky Lamborghini Gallardo
@JDM im not running a contest.. LOL.. you can do this on your own to see which of your cars is the best.
@JDM both. daredevil starts in the Yaeger airport while Sandshift Drift starts in, well, the sand.. (^.^)
@MoterKade You can do that if you want to control you car manually. but (for now) your AI opponent does not know how to brake/reverse or even use yaw for steering.
