Basically you want to attach your weapon of your choice to a inactive dettacher and cover it with fuselage with its mass (do it to the detacher too), drag and collision turned off. The fuselage must be connected to the detacher and nothing else. And to put it on your aircraft, connect it by the detacher.
For more details, you can look for tutorials. On YouTube or here. There are a few that can help.
However, there is a more complicated method. You do every step from the previous method but instead of turning off mass and drag you divide it equally across all parts. For example, if your coustom weapon has 10 parts in total (including the in game weapon used), divide the mass and drag value which is 1 by 10 and you get 0.1. Put this value in all pieces mass and drag value (including the weapon used).
@Dillboy949 turn off aircraft collision on the surrounding fuselage pices by going to the overload menu. For example, if it's on the nose of the plane, then turn off collision of the nose pices. You won't have to do it to all of the pieces.
@NoProjectAvailable go to overload menu and set disableAircraftCollision to true on all gear part. And most importantly, custom landing gears works best in medium or higher physics settings.

Are you on android? It could be because the bomb has an unreasonable explosion scale. The bomb clipping through the ground? Bombs and missiles and sometimes the whole aircraft goes through the ground because of high speed.
Or it's some bug.
@126 just make sure you have important files (like your favorite build or the ones you were working on or all of them) copied and moved to somewhere else. Then go to play store and leave beta. That's the only way as far as I know.
@126 well, I am on android and there is this option in the play store to join or leave beta. If you are on android, you can do that and won't have any consequences (I think) . Don't know about pc though. Before you do anything, back up your most important files just to be safe.
@Samfpanzer suspension is at max strength. The tilt angle can be fixed but the barrel is the problem. The formula I used to calculate the launch angle assumes height to be the starting position of the projectile, which in this case is at the tip of the barrel. I have set the height to be the position of the rotator that elevates the cannon.
That's what I think the bigger problem is. If you want to take a look at it, let me know. I will upload it as unlisted and tag you there.
If all else fails, either I will have to post it as it is now or find another formula that considers the barrel length.
@Samfpanzer yes. The collision is turned off. Otherwise it would just exolode. The cannon is at the tip of the barrel made of fuselage. And it's quite long. When the cannon elevates, the height of launch position changes. And that's the problem. Also the slight till of the whole tank. It's barely 1 degree but that's a massive difference.
@Commander9013 go to the variable output menu and assign something to the Thrust variable like thr1 or somethig. And put it in text label like this {thr1}. It will show you how much thrust that specific engine is producing.
You can get a percentage output by putting {100 * thr1 / (max value of thr1)} in. Putting it in a dial is bit more complicated.
@Kuruma234 There is a variable with no value in there somewhere. For example, let's say I have a variable called a with value 1 and variable b with value 3 in the variable setter. And i write a line of code that goes like a + b - y. This will give the same error because I haven't set a variable called y yet. And it's not an all ready existing funky trees out put like Altitude or Throttle.
Custom lading gear would suit it better
I feel a great disturbance in the force
@Shadow71634 okay
Is it chocolate or High Explosives in it?

Watch the teaser for sp2
That is a good idea. You better not forget your combination though 😂
Food is not food without spices.
YES
-Activate8 also works
@NoProjectAvailable i will be testing it and if I can, I will post a fixed version as unlisted and tag you there.
@NoProjectAvailable which physics setting are you playing with and have you enabled suspension on the wheel?
I will be taking a look at it myself
Now that i think about it, clear glass does look better
@NoProjectAvailable go to overload menu and set
disableAircraftCollisiontotrueon all gear part. And most importantly, custom landing gears works best in medium or higher physics settings.Somebody put him in containment.
don't break him out
Looks fine though
So it tracks your aircraft while remaining stationery? That's pretty nice. It will be helpful for screen shots and making videos
2 players not being able to post the same helicopter feels unfair. How would you even know if someone is making the same helicopter as you.

@TTL some image hosting links don't work on sp website.

Looking good

@Default4 the first, second, third and fourth ones where not in the teaser.
@Rb2h it's most likely a target being "lased". That's what they say when designating a target with laser (I think).
Coaxial supremacy
Special thanks to @Samfpanzer

@126 so do it on your mobile. Copy the files and save it as a different folder and move it back once you are done. You don't need a pc for that.
@126 well that's bad
But If your lap is damaged, how did your game crash. Did it occur before that?
@126 just make sure you have important files (like your favorite build or the ones you were working on or all of them) copied and moved to somewhere else. Then go to play store and leave beta. That's the only way as far as I know.

@126 Chances of bugs and crashes are very high in beta version of the game.
Okay, did a quick search and i guess it's a bug?
@NaterOfHiggers all of your builds are credited to twin prop. Why?
Looks awfully familiar
@Samfpanzer take a look
@Samfpanzer it's not housed on a website. Found it in a YouTube video.
I will upload it.
I sure love American cheese with bread on top of it.
With a side of gyroscope

Yes

BEHOLD, The Swedish Dorito

@HudDistance considering it's size, a simple rain is not going to get it done.
@HudDistance you're welcome

i will be watching this development with great intrest
I was going to say "for nothing good" but then I saw the pinned comment.
Somebody must have forgot about it.
