@jfriss that doesn't make the tags belong, except maybe flashback.
Certainly NOT question.
Edit: To be clear, I don't mean to single out this post, loads of people abuse tags and they should stop; it messes up the organization of the history of the forums, but I just commented on this because I had a moment and it caught my eye for some reason.
This is not a question, real announcement, or flashback (unless it brought up a memory for you, but unless it comes with a story of the flashback, the tag doesn't belong).
@HPGBPlanes @TheBoeingEngineer I don't know if it was one of you, but someone put it on the uservoice, and you should vote for it! (if you want it)
And if it was you, you should post a link in the forums so that everyone who wants it can vote for it
Oh, and in case you don't know, to make a clickable link, [clicky text here](link here), so [vote for a torque option!](https://jundroo.uservoice.com/forums/221664-jundroo-games/suggestions/15018156-add-torque-setting-to-car-engines) becomes vote for a torque option!
@KnightOfAraluen I use it on my Kindle Fire HDX, just follow the Android directions (you will need a file browser app, such as ES File explorer, for moving the file) :)
My idea is that we put this link in the "stuff" tab, so that people can properly vote on the ideas (which are organized)... that is what the uservoice is for, after all.
Yes! Several people have suggested it, as did I when the wheels were in beta, but I guess adding torque may be somewhat difficult... still, you should put it on the user voice site so we can vote for it!
@WNP78 Thanks, but I already knew how to do that (guess it's better than a single asterisk...), I meant just a totally white newline, as @NathanMikeska did here
You don't need Visual Studio, you can use a different IDE or just a text editor, but I would highly recommend Visual Studio, it's well integrated with Unity, fairly customizable , and really a great IDE.
I think you should have the mod tools in your SimplePlanes installation (SimplePlanes/Mod Tools), but you can download them from here.
And remember the modding wiki for tutorials and explanations on things :)
Good luck, and have fun modding!
Edit: Devs, how to new/blank line in a comment or post? I've seen you guys do it!!!
Edit2: yay whitespace newlines!!! Thanks @NathanMikeska =D
@JMicah4 @OrionAstronaut keep in mind, that is just XML editing, though it does seem that's what you're asking for, it's not a "proper" mod, which is made with Unity and the SimplePlanes mod tools package.
I'm starting to see a pattern... you make a post mentioning drama (among/with/by platinum users), get comments, then delete it and make a new one... seems like you like drama.
I assure you, most of the platinums have no intention of causing drama, they don't think for an instant they're above everyone else, and often try to help out more than others.
@jfriss Well, you could always scale the engine power DOWN.... or you could scale the engine up with scale engine power on, then turn scale engine power off and scale the engine down, which will leave the engine power as it was when it was big.
Using so many tags that don't belong will make relevant stuff harder to find in the future.
This is not at all phrased as a question, it's hardly an announcement, and you didn't tell a story... no, "people don't always upvote stuff people put time into" is not a story.
I've been here literally since the very beginning of the game (well, only on this site since the site became a thing a while later), and if I recall correctly, I have the fourth (or fifth?) oldest account on the site, including devs.
I have only 2,759 points (as of typing this)... and I don't give a $#!%.
@DESTROX25 Most likely, you won't even get a little bit sick, though it depends on the eggs and your immune system, it's more likely for you to die in a car accident, so if you're not freaking out when in a moving car, there's no reason to freak out now.
@Flightsonic Well if you somehow find the files, you should be able to XML edit, but not Unity modding... even if it has the code for mods (I'm pretty sure it doesn't), iOS would need it's own specific mod file, like Android does, but we can't build to iOS, so it still wouldn't work
@TimothyWong It works just fine on Windows 10... perhaps you're using the wrong link? The one in the main post is an old link, for the version with scaling, check here.
@mattmck Bugs that for all we can tell shouldn't happen, SimplePlanes code base isn't very conducive to multiplayer, and because of "life" we haven't exactly had much time to work on it :/
@mattmck Still don't know about release, sorry...
and there (probably?) won't be a setting for local, it will basically just work, and you will type in the local IP address of the host machine instead of the global IP (it already works, so... yeah... maybe I could make a server option that doesn't open ports on your router, so that people can't connect from outside your network, but that'd only be a problem if you told everyone your IP, so I'm not sure...)

@aircraftarsenal123 PC and OSX use the same mod file, so yes, the PC one should work :)

When I get bored with what I normally do... I build planes/vehichles...
@masteroftheskys @Gestour As @Jetspeed1001 already said, it's Cthulhu, and you can't kill it.
@BroPlanes Apple's policy prevents SimplePlanes from supporting mods on iOS.
Purely out of curiosity, what have you got so far?
And is that anti-gravity engine, or hover engine? Sounds more like a hover engine, but maybe that's just me...
@NathanMikeska Thank you!!!
I can finally have my precious whitespace =D
@WNP78 Thanks, but I already knew how to do that (guess it's better than a single asterisk...), I meant just a totally white newline, as @NathanMikeska did here

@tank57 for what? Sure it's usually easier, but it's also far more limited.
@tank57 Oh, I forgot to say, if you mean XML editing, check here.
@Gamechievements @Johndfg Very sorry guys, I don't actually have OSX so I don't know how to help :(
https://www.reddit.com/r/SimplePlanes/wiki/modding#wikigettingstarted
@Eckosong No, I just make game-mods, though I've been here since the very first alpha of the game, I've never been a moderator.

Is where ever you have Steam installed.666(.Ɛ)
@Eagle355 Apple's policy prevents mod support on iOS.
@Johndfg yes, however for size you will need this new version instead of the one in the main post :)

@goboygo1 this version has scaling :)
@TooniisAerospace like this version?
Maybe if you didn't keep making new posts about it.

@LightningTreeSavor because of Apple's policy, iOS doesn't support mods
Good luck, mwahahahaha.
@FighterCrafter14 this version can :)
@jfriss Well, you could always scale the engine power DOWN.... or you could scale the engine up with scale engine power on, then turn scale engine power off and scale the engine down, which will leave the engine power as it was when it was big.
@jfriss ... Hit the scale button.... type in each of the scale(x,y,z) boxes a number smaller than 1.00... and hit scale....
@jfriss With the PC download linked in this comment :)
XML Edit *
Here :)
@FighterCrafter14 Apple's policy doesn't allow mods on iOS
@ChasingHorizon the main post is an "old" download, for scaling get this one :)
@MrRifqi it's a new version that I haven't "officially" released, but you can get it here :)
Cool post!

FTFY
@Flightsonic @XxcreedexX iOS version of SimplePlanes doesn't support real mods, whether you jailbreak or not :/
@TimothyWong It works just fine on Windows 10... perhaps you're using the wrong link? The one in the main post is an old link, for the version with scaling, check here.
Here you go :)
