@DARZAVIATIONOFICIAL ah lol, well I have another question. How will the aircraft evade missiles while being controlled by ai? From what I've tried so far countermeasures don't work and they don't recognize missile warning. Wouldn't both aircraft just launch a missile and tie?
Man it's been a while since I've seen one of these.
Some of the first ones I've seen used detachers inside a fake casing with insane detach force to propel the projectiles forward. And a second piston to eject the spent shell.
I tried making my own a few years ago before I knew anything about XML so maybe you could make it automated by timing the Pistons.
The 'new planes' page starting to get TikTok vibes. I guess it's an easy way for someone coked up on upvotes to get their fix. But in the end it's just the same craft with different letters.
@11qazxc sorry I didn't really get what you explained there. Do you have an example?
I've never had this happen to my other aircraft and it seems like every other creator hear hasn't had this problem.
@WNP78 hey I have a question, is there a way to add damper to the control surface of a wing or is it only possible through rotators and hinges? I've been having trouble with using custom control surfaces. I made a post describing my issue in detail and I could use some advice from a veteran of this game.
@Grob0s0VBRa thanks, works great. Also found that I can use !Activate1 as an ag or input which works similarly. Thanks for the help, once I experimented a bit with the command you shared it helped out great, my plane can now taxi without the control surfaces affecting it on the ground and I can switch between sensitivity modes 👍
I've been seeing alot of these airbrake memes. What are they? What's the meme? Is there a meme or is the hive mind hopping on a band wagon that hasn't reached me yet?
@11qazxc I wasn't able to get them to work sadly, the redbull one was pink and had a lot of symbols artifacting from it. The Spotify one also had alot of artifacts. The flag works but I couldnt get past how they glow in the dark. The artifacts are probably unavoidable and just a product of the software but I think I'm gonna go the old method and build them, I was hoping to keep the parts count down. Still I thank you for trying it out for me.
Ye ever try to milk a sky cow Leroy!? It's damn difficult, ye need alot o' rope. Leroy. And it's damn difficult. So, I built this here tractor for milkin' me sky cows. Ye can call er a tractair.
There are mods for Android, but let's not forget that this game can run on literally anything, and a new windows desktop can cost less than 50 bucks. Which is less than most android phones. You can afford a phone you can afford a PC.
Took a look at it. 3 things are messed up on it.
The left side wheels are infinitely rotated negatively somehow. Set rotation in XML to 0,0,0 on the left wheels and 0,180,0 on the right.
You have the drag turned down to zero in XML as well. Set all drag variables to 1, that's why your car is being goofy, it thinks it's on ice.
And lastly, to prevent more weirdness set aircraftCollisions to true in xml so the wheels won't interacts with the inner fender.
I made sure it all worked beforehand, hope this helps
@Axartar how the wing interacts with physics isn't the problem. Did you look at the pictures? I'm talking about where it should go. Like if I should keep the wings in the center like I intended or put them lower on the craft like the more common layouts. Nevermind mate I think I'll just keep it centered and figure out how to make landing gear that fits the style.
@Axartar I've already shrunk the functional wings. What I meant was whether I should keep the current placement of the decorative fake wings or move them lower like most race and stunt planes have, since I can't find many landing gear examples for how my wings are currently. It's been a while since I made this forum post so the aircraft has made some progress but I thing the new gear look a bit off

+2What is XLM? I've heard of XML, is it the same?

+1Looks like that one Bugatti plane
@Zaineman ah ok makes sense, I thought it might've been a challenge or something
What is this for?
@Aarav thanks 👍
+1@Nightgems also the number and website are both real things Sweden has. and you might've noticed the fine print on the Saab and IKEA logos.
@Nightgems thanks a ton mate! Glad it was worth making 👍
@11qazxc oh no I got that part, the second part is what I'm curious about.

+1The whole description reads like an AI written monologue.
+1Great use of parts and very clean build. But I'd love to see a cockpit in this. were you thinking about it since you already put the glass in
Does contra-rotating props count?
Looking good, try experimenting with custom wings on this design. I'd like to see it 👍
Pastel 👌

+1Heya jundroo people, might wanna add more languages that dont follow the Latin alphabet. Seems like Russian is the only exception.
+3@GhostHTX yeah the deadline will probably be extended especially since only just yesterday it got more popular.
@Dragoranos also thanks for the spotlight 👍

Is the joke that a normal .50 cal is 12.7 mm?
Turn on smooth front and smooth back for the fuselage pieces, it will hire the sharp lines on the nose or wherever else you want to use it.
@srbobington absolutely. Glad someone noticed:)
@11qazxc thanks a million mate
Seems to have gotten smaller since a few months ago
Aye could ya make a first gen RAV4 4dr? That car has a special place in my heart but I'm not talented enough to make it.

+1@Mlancer can't wait 👌
Aye could you make a camera that stays level on the roll axis but follows the pitch and yaw?
Aw I wish I got back into the game when this challenge went live.
+1Redbull race plane
oh my ive never seen this craft before, what a fella. love the unique choice.
+1Should give it that smexy smirk
+1@KingOfTypos giga Chad move purposely misspell every 5th word
+2Man I just wanted to download a hula bobbler for one of my builds, what kind of can of worms did I find in the comments?
There's a suspicious lack of typos. Thought you were the king of 'em. Nice plane tho, love the attention to detail of the compliant mechanism.
