Cool good job! I did just finish my own version with the mirrored/countered engines, but I’m not sure I’ll post it since I’ve already posted an update... unless you think I should... also I thought of spotlighting your version but that seems a little self-serving... do you think?
Fantastic build, I love it! Great job on the landing gear and thrust vectoring! Plus it flies great, and really everything about it is great, I’m impressed!
Wow thank you! Well, it spontaneously explodes when you pitch and roll aggressively. Also, when you scale it down, then it flips out and explodes even faster... maybe you can figure out why? But also I will need to finish the build before I scale it down so... I dunno, that do you think? @RodWan
Thanks for the advice! I think I just got extremely lucky because one of my builds just got featured hahaha... I wish I knew how to thank the mod/dev who did it! @Minecraftpoweer
Thank you! I wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that yesterday I posted on the forum asking if getting featured was a realistic goal for me... :/. So maybe it’s mostly luck, but hey, I’ll take it! Haha. Who do I thank, btw? @Chancey21
I do have a pc running SP but it’s so slow and crashy that I only use it strictly for fine tuner and Overload. That being said, I only just started using those mods and don’t really understand how to use them correctly :/ @whereby
Ok cool thanks! Yeah I use my phone (iOS) for everything. I’ve just started playing with mods using my Dell, but it’s a piece of junk so I only use it when I absolutely have to. @Planedude
@RodWan Hey man, I noticed on your profile that you can help with tuning/XML stuff. And based on your comments and content, I thought you’d be the guy to ask! Do you have any ideas on what I can do with this build? I swear it’s taking years off my life.... :(
Haha yeah I guess it is. No I haven’t disabled collisions cause I’ve no idea how to do that... Another problem is when I try to scale it down (it’s so huge) then things go haywire even faster... and if I can’t figure out how to get it to function correctly, I don’t wanna spend the hours getting the aesthetics right :/ Also, thank you, btw hahah @Planedude
Also, is it the mods who pick featured builds? or is it automated, like once you reach a certain number of upvotes or downloads or something?@randomusername
Oh! Right got it haha. But yes, a feature that is functional but rare is basically what I was thinking. So... by cargo mech, you mean a big lumbering bi-pedal or -quadrupedal or whatever-pedal walker whose purpose is to carry stuff; either imaginary troops,ordinance,etc or even other builds like planes or trucks or tanks, right? @randomusername
Okay, cool, thanks for those ideas! I like that rarity function idea... are there any plane features you can think of that are rare on SP but still possible? @randomusername
I wrote this in the description but I’m posting it here so that these builders get a notification:
I would like to thank @jamesPLANESii, @BodganX, and @Chancey21, whose amazing bush and ultralight planes gave me inspiration and a benchmark to aspire to. I know I’m nowhere near that level, but they make me want to keep trying. So thank you!
Oh hey that reminds me; is there a function that mirrors only one part? It seems like that would be a thing but I can’t figure it out (I’m on iOS if that makes a difference) @ProfessionalAmateur
Thank you! Yes, I struggled over that for a while. I knew it would be more accurate as a replica if they were mirrored/counter-rotating. But stylistically I felt it would be cooler for some reason if I made the engines identical rather than mirrored. Also I guess I didn’t want it to look like I was lazy and just used the mirror tool (silly, I know). I think I may have chosen wrong hahaha... but thank you for the feedback! I value it greatly. Maybe I should post another update that is mirrored. @ProfessionalAmateur
Thank you! Not unbreakable, but pretty forgiving and resilient. It’s kinda floppy but I like it that way cause I like watching moving suspension haha :) @4399ton
Ah, ok gotcha. Well my plane flew fine until I scaled it down, and I did mess with drag and mass scale a bunch, so I think I flubbed it up somewhere along the way... @randomusername
Haha okay. How many points does platinum start at, anyway? @QingyuZhou
Yeah, I don’t have that button, I don’t know why. Maybe it’s not available on iOS. @ProfessionalAmateur

+1Ok thanks! @Chancey21
+1@Tully2001 @WeeBabySeamus hey guys, if it was either of you who featured my build, thank you very very much!! I am very honored :)
+1Ok, 1- how do I do that? I have never been able to figure that out... is it not possible on the iOS version?
2- can you do it with multiple parts at once? @ProfessionalAmateur

Ok, that makes sense. Thank you for taking a look! Late is no problem I’m not in a rush hahaha @RodWan
Thank you! @Trainzo
I don’t know off hand but when I get home tonight I’ll take a look. @whereby

Hey there’s a good idea! @LiamW
@LiamW haha ok dang I was gonna say how do you do electric motors in SP? not counting infinite rotators i guess...
Haha dang. Ok well thanks for keeping it real :) @BoeyingOfficial
Are you making a request? @LiamW

Fantastic! That looks a bit trickier to get into a cockpit but I’ll do my best to figure it out so I can put that in a future build! @Planedude
Haha! I’m sure @FastDan
Ah okay, cool thanks. @randomusername
+1Thanks to @Planedude for the great artificial horizon!

Thanks to @BogdanX, whose pontoons I used (Fairy Seaplane). I love that plane, btw, great work!

Okay, thanks! I’ve got a few comments to write haha. @randomusername
+1Well I can’t use the mirror tool now because of stuff that’s in the cockpit so I’ll have to pull it off of an earlier save file. @ProfessionalAmateur

Ooh, what about Finnegan’s ‘56 (‘57?) Chevy gasser? I bet you could build a really sweet version of that one! @aircraftarsenal123
I think you’re the man for the job! Haha seriously though Roadkill is one of my favorite shows ever. @aircraftarsenal123
That thing is a smoke machine!!! I really loved that episode hahaha. Great build man! @aircraftarsenal123
Wow yeah I totally missed that. Thanks for the tip! Let’s see if I can figure out how to fix it hahahah. @BogdanX
Aren’t they cute?? @LiamW
Thank you! Not unbreakable, but pretty forgiving and resilient. It’s kinda floppy but I like it that way cause I like watching moving suspension haha :) @4399ton
+1Thank you :) I meant for it to be a good flyer for beginners so I guess I did a good job haha! @Franklinclinton
Thank you :) @Roswell
Thank you! :D @TMach5
Jeez wow okay thanks guys! Derp. @ThePilotDude @TheMutePaper
Thank you! :D @flyingsteve88
