    @horizoneer so you already have linux?

  • Simple notifications (update #2) 6.7 years ago

    @WNP78 Actually, I have not, and I will now. I was only testing if I can do something like that, and got carried away a bit... Thank you for reminding.

  • Looking for MacOS testing people (u #3) 6.7 years ago

    @Chancey21 also, I will tag you after I have the mac scrip ready, I want to adjust it so it is easier to install and has less third-party dependencies.

  • Looking for MacOS testing people (u #3) 6.7 years ago

    @Chancey21 I don't know about that. It was my only desktop PC, and the hard drive does not fit into my laptop that I use right now. But I hope that the drive is Ok, because as far as I've seen, the failure occurred in the 3.3V line to the CPU, independent of the 12V and 5V lines of the drive. I don't really care about the CPU and the motherboard, but I really hope that the GPU survived, as it was the most expensive part of the computer

    @horizoneer I recommend trying out Mint first, it allows you to run it from a live disk, or dual-boot, so all your files, including Windows, are saved, and you can choose which OS to run every time you start your PC

    @AdlerSteiner I asked him on Discord to comment so I can test the notification script :D

  • Has anyone ever built and designed there own aircraft IRl? 6.7 years ago

    A drone with a Raspberry Pi Zero and a GSM module so I can control it anywhere via the Internet. A big drone, over a meter wingspan. Note that it performed its last flight about a month ago when it lost reception, the autopilot failed to kick in, and the entire thing got shredded into oblivion by trees

    @Patton2 and how do you display them? If it is works from a batch file, then it could work from python as well

  • Simple notifications (update #2) 6.7 years ago

    @horizoneer wine tends to work just fine. If not, you can install playonlinux, it is a graphical frontend to wine, but it can automatically get required stuff like dlls from the web. I tested it on Linux Mint on two computers, and it works better with Intel HD graphics, when I ran it on an AMD Radeon RX470 graphics card, I got weird glitches when uploading

  • More fair tournaments 6.7 years ago

    @F104Deathtrap by "silent majority of users" I mean users who just play the game casually and do not take part in any discussions. There are thousands of registered users, hundreds of active users, and yet you keep seeing the same people on the forums, with a few newcomers popping up here and there. Most of the userbase does not take part in forum discussions, they just want to play the game, and the option of a "tournament" is appealing to them.

  • Derek's lifehack #1 6.7 years ago

    @Botfinder or, you know, I can just keep making tea

  • More fair tournaments 6.7 years ago

    @Jetpackturtle yeah created

  • More fair tournaments 6.7 years ago

    @Chancey21 it already exists, but only if you are using a joystick. Then the brake will not manipulate throttle as throttle is bound to the physical throttle lever on the joystick

  • More fair tournaments 6.7 years ago

    @Chancey21 I understand that, but either SR2 or licorice eating is close

    @randomusername it is expensive tea

  • Upload limit is bogus! 6.7 years ago

    You have to understand that even unlisted builds can slow down the website. You could use the in-game view presets, however they will not be ortographic. I think there is a mod that makes ortographic projections in the designer, you could screenshot them

  • PLEASE FIX 6.7 years ago

    Nothing can "embed" into an LED screen. Send us a screenshot.

  • Derek's lifehack #1 6.7 years ago

    @FastDan you see, it had so many issues that pretty much every day I had to take it out of the case and put it back in. I figured that while I'm working on it, I might as well just let it sit there next to me. It also does not overheat anymore

  • Computer Confusion 6.7 years ago

    Yes, windows updates are known for messing things up.
    That's why I use Linux!
    Anyways, the first thing I would do if I was using Windows and it slowed down would be running a deep virus scan in an antivirus of your choice (I prefer AVG) and after that giving the PC another scan using Malwarebytes.
    It is very easy to get a virus on a Windows machine, literally just clicking a wrong hyperlink and it's over.
    As LiamW said, take a look in the task manager.
    You do that using Ctrl+Alt+Del, selecting Task Manager. Then look at the Processes tab and sort it by CPU and memory usage, maybe you'll find something suspicious.
    Also look at the Performance tab, to check if the slowdown is caused by not enough memory or high CPU usage.

  • Final call for Simple Airways flight 1337 to Wright Isles 6.7 years ago

    @CSP27 acktually it's flightgear, because I couldn't get FSX running on linux :D

  • the traveler 6.7 years ago

    congrats on making the first post I actually favorited

  • hate Piston 6.7 years ago

    @Minecraftpoweer I tried that once, resulted in basically all my rotators falling apart and the plane handling as if it was flying through deep space

  • hate Piston 6.7 years ago

    First, change the title before you get banned, this is a christian minecraft server.
    And if you mean the shaking of pistons, I am afraid that is not possible to fix. You could "simulate" a piston using a highly offset hinge.

    @K9officerft yes, I know about that, it has a telescope in the side, pretty neat

  • SimplePlanes 2: What features would you add? 6.7 years ago

    @WNP78 I had to google "words starting with X" as I was clueless.
    Also, fixed the "sentence" issue I am so sorry to have disappointed you

  • 747-400 SOFIA 6.7 years ago

    hmmm doesn't seem to be furniture-related

  • Dihedral 6.7 years ago

    Or, you know, just use the rotate tool and set it to "connected parts"

  • Winglets? 6.7 years ago

    They increase stability during turns slightly, and that is just because the game does not simulate lift from anything else than wings. IRL, the entire body of the plane acts in a way as a vertical stabilizer

  • Unity Mac saving question. 6.7 years ago

    step four: delet windows
    step five: install linux
    step six: realize you can't have unity anymore
    step seven: slightly less profit
