  • F-8 Crusader 4.1 7.1 years ago

    @RamboJutter the way is removing excess drag via "dragScale" and "calculateDrag". Then you need much weaker engine to reach the speed. That engine will take more time to beat inertia of the plane.

  • F-8 Crusader 4.1 7.1 years ago

    Nice work. It looks good and flies well. But maybe install a weaker engine and remove some drag? It accelerates like a rocket.

  • last s n e a c p e e c c 7.1 years ago

    Try to make the cockpit frame somewhat smoother. Other than that, nice plane.
    EDIT: never mind. I missed the part where you say it's T7.

    Old engine, huh? I haven't seen that one in ages.

  • M.Corp MP-1 Bandit 7.1 years ago

    @Bdidi no. I have rushed this build. Next plane will have it (if it's a plane that kinda looks like An-72. I'm not sure which one I'm going to upload next).

    @Tengam for sonobuoys I couldn't install due to the lack of activation groups.

  • M.Corp MP-1 Bandit 7.1 years ago

    @Chancey21 this bird was an inch of getting scrapped, as I have already made a much better plane. I just wanted to kick it onto the site so it doesn't go to waste. And because I don't want to convert that better plane into maritime patrol aircraft with ugly radomes and MAD probe poles. This is, in my opinion, how a low gold player should build.

  • M.Corp MP-1 Bandit 7.1 years ago

    @Dllama4 sure you can. Just not on the first try. It took me two years and around fifty scrapped attempts.

  • M.Corp MP-1 Bandit 7.1 years ago

    @Dllama4 that was fast. Thanks :)

  • HOW DO SPACE SHUTTLES WORK 7.1 years ago

    You may also want to use a gyroscope to keep it stable until aerodynamic surfaces become effective.

  • HOW DO SPACE SHUTTLES WORK 7.1 years ago

    Your CoM must be in line with CoT. Incase of space shuttle, CoT must be directly below CoM, with very little margin for offset.

  • Ilyushin Il-38N "Sea Dragon" 7.1 years ago

    @Sgtk no problem.

  • Turbo-fan 7.1 years ago

    An 835 part fan?! Don't build the rest of the plane, you'll bring down the site.

    @Tully2001 no problem.

    @Tully2001 follow the URL from a third comment from the bottom.

  • With all these requests for 1.8, you guys have forgot the most important feature. 7.1 years ago

    We need something to play with until they add weapons and other important things to SR2. SR2 will probably be a bit too basic at the start.

    +1
  • Will SR2 have weapons? 7.1 years ago

    Andrew said it won't have them initially. However, it's one of the most popular requests, and adds far more versatility to the game. So, we can expect it on one of the updates.

  • BMW 528 E-12 7.1 years ago

    It's a bit rough in some places, especially around doors. Other than that, excellent build.

  • STOP ABUSING KRAKENS 7.1 years ago

    It's Cthulu. Game code calls him that. After Lovecraft's series about a similar god-like creature.

  • Hun Bomber 7.1 years ago

    It's nice. It has details, and flies well. But why no ailerons? I mean, there are hidden ones, but I don't see anything moving on the trailing edge of the wing. In my opinion, that's a big minus. Especially with so many simple techniques for custom wing with mechanical control surfaces all over the site.

  • Dragostea Din Tei (15MB gif) 7.1 years ago

    Man, I haven't heard that song in ages. Nice plane :)

  • Nazi Germany Battle Flag - Reichskriegsflagge 7.1 years ago

    @Comradeairlines all devs and moderators are western. They probably wouldn't mind anything anti-communist. Also, I don't see how a flag can be offensive.

  • M.Corp BOV-X Boar 7.1 years ago

    @BlyatMan I'm busy with a few of my own builds and some real life stuff. And interiors have never really been my thing anyway.

  • Hansa Brandenburg W18 2.3 7.1 years ago

    @RamboJutter no problem.

  • Hansa Brandenburg W18 2.3 7.1 years ago

    This is too nice to go unnoticed. Have a spotlight :)

  • M.Corp BOV-X Boar 7.1 years ago

    AG2 extends the mast. You can look through the camera and rotate it with the same input as for the gun. AG2 also opens a satellite antenna, @Chancey21

  • M.Corp BOV-X Boar 7.1 years ago

    @Chancey21 I'm really glad you enjoyed. Have you checked out parking brake and camera mast?

  • The SimplePlanes Weekly, with Squirrel [27] 7.1 years ago

    @goboygo1 you can adjust both the UI size and icon size. Use mod setting mod by HellFireKoder.

  • M.Corp BOV-X Boar 7.1 years ago

    @Tank6376 there should be a few of those already on the site. Use search feature. It's in the "Aircraft" drop-down menu.

  • Tutorial: making hollow airliner fuselages and cockpit section 7.1 years ago

    So, you do windows before you get to them with the fuselage plating. That's the part I was missing. I have already managed to make a semi-hollow decent looking cockpit for one of my WIPs using similar technique, but I'll try to remake it with your tricks.

  • How can I improve my builds? 7.1 years ago

    It's hard to say, really. That plane looks chubby and unattractive, although it's technically great. Also, it's always builds that you hold in high regard yourself that underachieve on the site. I know that from experience. "I hate this build. It doesn't look right, it doesn't work as well as I'd like, but I have worked too much to just scrap it. So I'll post it.". The build proceeds to score over 100 upvotes, three times more than my second best at the time. I upload a build I'm proud of, and it flops.

  • Boat parts? 1.8 suggestion 7.1 years ago

    Only thing we need for boat building are better fuselage options (concave fuselage, twisting the fuselage). It would allow us to spend fewer parts on hulls. We can already make everything you mentioned except for arresting cables. Do you really think devs would waste time adding a helipad you can make out of two or three parts?

  • STOP MAKING “SORRY IM LEAVING SIMPLEPLANES FOR A WHILE”. 7.1 years ago

    Grammar, buddy, grammar. The word you are looking for is "you're". Also, "soccer" is actual football. American football is a derivative of rugby, which itself is a derivative of actual football.

  • Any ideas/recommendations for me? 7.1 years ago

    Make a boat.

  • A6M2 Type 0 Model 21 7.2 years ago

    Very nice. Only thing I would edit is setting max deflection angle of elevators to around 27°. That way, you'll avoid elevator stall at max input. That problem is easy to miss on a mobile device, because you have on-screen controls. On PC, keyboard input makes it obvious.

  • ''Hard-worker'' Cult Supply Truck 7.2 years ago

    I recommend using standard ground vehicle controls. That's pitch for acceleration and roll for turning. With throttle input, you don't have reverse, and yaw doesn't allow you to use partial input on PC.

  • Kawanishi H6K5 TYPE97 ver2.0 7.2 years ago

    It's much better now.

  • M.Corp BOV-X Boar 7.2 years ago

    @Tank6376 I have a decent variety of armored vehicles you can choose from. I never make replicas of real ones. This is a scout vehicle, meant to seek targets for artillery and tank units, so its armament is only for self defence.

  • Project 157 (patrol vessel) 7.2 years ago

    Top speed is way too high. Other than that, quite a nice ship.

  • What should i do ? 7.2 years ago

    You should maintain quality and keep improving. That ship is, indeed, nice. But many of your other builds aren't. Popularity comes with consistent quality. Also, join Discord servers and communicate with people. That will get you friends who will help you get better, and who will see your builds. You can join the biggest SP Discord server from my bio, as well as a dedicated shipbuilding server Port SP.

  • Help needed with missile 7.2 years ago

    @TheBoeingEngineer no problem.

  • Help needed with missile 7.2 years ago

    Make one. Put a missile on the wide side of detacher, attach a fuselage body to the REAR of the detacher, nudge it together, and launch like normal missile. Keep in mind that detacher will fly with the missile, so nudge it inside after you connect the missile to the plane.
