    I do not know why, but for a minute straight I thought that the title is

    and I just accepted it and clicked it

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

    Like some other games of our time
    It should have more interesting world
    Not just couple islands.
    Unless they make the islands detailed enough.
    XML structure should also be made less resource-intensive,
    SimplePlanes has to keep reloading every single part.
    Underwater physics would be fun too.
    Physics of upper atmosphere/space.
    Parts, more parts.
    Only one thing is more important, though;
    Read the first letter of every LINE
    To know what.

    @ACEPILOT109 like tea?

  • Space station challenge (CANCELED) 6.7 years ago

    @Static as I said, I do not have access to my main PC with Windows

  • FAF F 29 6.7 years ago

    @ACEPILOT109 I suppose not... It's just that matty is a very sensitive being and needs to eat a lot of tea

  • Space station challenge (CANCELED) 6.7 years ago

    @CommanderSword yes, I plan on replacing all the "docking" fuselages with proper ports , as well as adding functional solar panels

  • Made a website 6.7 years ago

    My website is better. We were forced to make it by our IT teacher. It is completely in Czech, but don't worry, there is no interesting information to miss. Also, a random picture of Kim Jong Un welcomes you every time you refresh
    EDIT: Also, while you are on the website, type the cheat code for tank in GTA San Andreas

  • HHS Module (Space Station Challenge) 6.7 years ago

    Amazing how you fit that in just 75 parts :D
    I hope we both agree that the solar panels will get replaced by functional ones when SR2 drops

    @asteroidbook345 good god I will make the engine just give me 24 hours at max, I am now working on me own little project

  • Avlanchia Weekly-Issue One 6.7 years ago

    @asteroidbook345 but will it be VTOL? :D As I said, I am interested in making that engine, I already have some ideas

  • Avlanchia Weekly-Issue One 6.7 years ago

    30Mlbf, eh? Let's crunch the numbers. The most powerful variant of the GE90 produces roughly 116 thousand lbf, and consumes roughly 43 thousand pounds of jet fuel per hour when maintaining that thrust. It is a pretty efficient engine, so we will use its stats to predict what our imaginary 30M engine would need.
    43,000 / 116,000 ≈ 0.37
    0.37 x 30,000,000 ≈ 11,120,700
    So a single 30M engine would guzzle over 11 million pounds of fuel per hour.
    If you wanted to keep a plane with such engine airborne using aerial tankers, you would have to fly a fully loaded KC-135 to it every minute.
    Furthermore, just the fuel cost of such a plane would be about 50 thousand dollars per minute.
    Your weight estimates are however pretty realistic. If your plane had a similar aerodynamic profile to other planes, such as the 747, its cruise speed when fully loaded with 100,000,000lb would be about 795kph, or 493mph.
    The scale estimates, not so much.
    The mentioned 748F is about as big as your plane (something over 200x200ft), but carries 100x less cargo and fuel.
    If you wanted to construct such a plane in a conventional way (aka engines provide thrust, wings provide lift), it would have to be absolutely MASSIVE; with the length and wingspan of around six kilometers, or 3.7 miles.
    However, as @randomusername mentioned, if it were to be a VTOL without wings and with the 30M engines providing both thrust and lift, it could be much smaller, but would require at least 4 of those engines, which would be pretty much impossible because they would consume more fuel than anything could provide them with.
    EDIT: Also, the fan of the engine would have to have a diameter of about 1 kilometer
    In conclusion, the plane that you described in your post is not realistically possible.
    But it sounds kinda cool and I may make the engine yeah?

  • Solar module 6.7 years ago

    @DPSAircraftManufacturer I still do not understand :D They are fixed, but when I port it to SR2 they will become functional (e.g. track the sun, generate power)

    Isn't it Schwalbe instead of Schawlbe, eh?

  • Who even uses this? 6.7 years ago

    the entire #linuxmasterrace aka only me cuz I can't have mods

  • going pc or laptop soon but need advice (please read full description) 6.7 years ago

    AMD Athlon X4 880K
    Sapphire Radeon RX470
    8 or 16 GB of RAM (8 just enough for most games, 16 for luxury)
    Some ASRock motherboard
    HDD or SSD of your choice
    And the best possible PSU for the money that's left.
    Boom. I built that for ca. $500/£388/€427, and it's pretty good.
    Although, for the low cost you get no upgradeability, as the 880K is pretty much the best of that socket. But it can overclock
    If you want to invest in that PC more in the future, I suggest getting an Intel CPU and NVidia graphics card, and spending more on the GPU and upgrading the CPU later.
