Where θ is the degree of the angle to the point on the circle, D is the diameter of the circle, * is the multiplication symbol, and / is the division symbol
@Spacedoge12345plane
Yes I do, that is why I am struggling with this actually. Creating circles needs a lot of calculating lol. I use it mainly for making my gears. @Spacedoge12345plane
Hmm I’ve never had this problem. In my experience whenever adding more pistons it would increase torque, but it could sometimes make it a little bit more unstable. @ThePrototype
Yes, and while a piston engine is turning sometimes even if it is calibrated right, if the engine or the output of the engine gets stuck (like if an object gets in the way of it turning) it can change direction, but having a gyro give that constant small push automatically puts it back in the right direction again. @ThePrototype
Also another tip I’ve discovered is that if you use a gyro but turn off stability and only allow it to turn on the Yaw axis and set Yaw input to throttle, you can connect it to the engine to help power it and it will help the piston engine spin in the correct direction. Idk if what I just said makes sense when I put it in text but yeah lol @ThePrototype
I'm too lazy to read read the comments below so somebody might have already answered this, but basically as you get closer to the speed of light the apparent mass of the object you are accelerating gets bigger and bigger, meaning it takes more and more force to push it. The mass gets larger and larger as you get closer and closer to the speed of light until it doesn't matter if you have the rocket force of 10 Saturn Vs, you aren't going to accelerate the object even an extra inch per second.
But it isn’t consistent, for this example, when I put the slider all the way to the right, it turned 179.99 degrees instead of the correct 180 degrees. But if I did the exact same thing again and dragged the slider all the way to the right again, it might say like 178.79 or something like that, so even if I changed the sensitivity it would still make crazy turns. @stig27
This is with the correct sensitivity to give me 180 degrees when I slide the bar all the way to the right. But the game it glitched to where it gives like 179.99 and stuff like that instead of 180 @stig27
I haven’t been spending much time on simpleplanes because I can’t really find anything new to build lol. Yeah so every once in a while I just think of something and upload it. @sexylips35
If you have a pc, I would highly recommend getting SP for it because being able to get mods like multiplayer and play different downloaded maps with your friends adds a whole lot more to the game.
Yes, to find the x pos, it is:
cos(θ) * D / 4
And y pos:
sin(θ) * D / 4
Where θ is the degree of the angle to the point on the circle, D is the diameter of the circle, * is the multiplication symbol, and / is the division symbol

+1But then I cannot copy and paste results @ThePilotDude
I mean it’s at about 2 billion feet but still no u back @RYMA232Aeronautics
+1The sky does have a limit
+1I like it
Yes you can @Spacedoge12345plane
Not by very much, since increasing speed would require more torque, which gyros do not have much of @Spacedoge12345plane
+1@BaconAircraft the discord SP MP Event Organization
+1Is the goal just to make a sub?
I don’t think I can send an invite link since I’m not the server ruler but ask @BaconAircraft since he is the head of it @Zexzon
+1Hmm I’ve never had this problem. In my experience whenever adding more pistons it would increase torque, but it could sometimes make it a little bit more unstable. @ThePrototype
I like it! @ThePrototype
Hmm thats interesting SP uses a 32 bit number to store height
Haha welcome to the club
I know you asked 4 months ago, but the answer is learning a little bit of calculus on the Internet so I could make circles XD @ThePrototype
Really? How long did it take and at what speed? @ForeverPie
Can I see? Cause I beg to differ XD @ThePrototype
the only thing i care about is fixing the glitch that screws up the rotating part function for fine tuning so i can start posting again lol
Crap my bad @RYMA232Aeronautics
+1I love it
+1Top ten questions scientists still can’t answer
+2I am more or less. Thank you :) @Stargazzer

Piston engines aren’t too hard you just have to know how to get the lengths right. @ThePrototype
Yeah do you need a certain size?@sexylips35

Add some red into there and you’ve got Speed Racer
+1Thank you I’ve been needing two springs on a fuselage
+1That doesn’t work for what I’m doing specifically @Nerfenthusiast
Oh god no @Mustang51
Oh yeah don’t press 1

I’m on IOS @goboygo1
Oof ok thx @RailfanEthan
Lol while that would work, using those buttons updates the object’s connection points which could make it connect to something I don’t want it to
Oh sweet, do you know when it’s planned to be out?@RailfanEthan

+1what server do you play on?
Sure
I hate it when that IzzyIA guy copies my gears @RYMA232Aeronautics
+2It’s great to see another user that focuses mainly on piston engines. Nice job, keep it up!

It’s been a second where’s the description
+1I’m confused. What’s special about the pic?
