The gear codes you are describing are this:
Gear Doors (Ones which stay open if the gear is down): (ceil(smooth(clamp01(GearDown), GearDown ? pow(10, 10) : 1 / 10.75 ))
Gear Doors (Open when gear is being retracted or extended): clamp01(abs((40 * abs(smooth((LandingGear - 0.5), 0.09))) - 20))
Gear (The landing gear): clamp01(smooth((GearDown * -2) , 1.1))
This is a really detailed plane, especially for someone of your points. I haven't had the chance to test it, but otherwise this deserves a spotlight. When I get a chance to test it I'll decide if it deserves a spotlight.
@BeastHunter Yeah I myself sometimes want a big 'turn it all on' switch for when I want to test something. It's a little annoying sometimes to go through a 20 minute startup sequence just to notice you need to make a small edit to the autopilot code.
.
So yes, I will make a version with a big fat switch to turn it all on.
@SupremeDorian Ermm... the rules link is broken. It should be https://simpleplanes.com/About/Rules, not https://simpleplanes.com/rules. Just wanted to let you know!
@Dathcha I was actually trying to figure out if BodganX had a picture in his bio that wasn't showing up. When looking at the source code, I noticed the code for the report function, and noticed the incorrect spelling.
I could use this! I constantly perform way too much math when doing control surfaces. I literally had two whole monitors with math and notes everywhere while I typed stuff into my calculator.

I was going to report this post as an exact copy of the original (re-upload), with the following comments, however I feel this is a grey zone and would like your thoughts.
.
Upon inspection of the specifications and numbers, this plane appears to be an identical re-upload of the original. When the comments section of the original were examined, the creator gave permission for this person to re-upload it (and the user catzilla said they made some upgrades), but the plane was re-uploaded with none of these supposed upgrades. The original creator "Chickendude" said the plane was inspired by "catzilla", however I see a plane with is an identical re-upload of the original.
@dINE I actually can't access fuel from tanks, I can just do pretend things. Like imagine the cross feed is always open. Using way too much FT I can write some code which makes engines shut off if certain pretend tank levels are empty.
For those who are wondering, these are the controls:
Pitch and Yaw to move
AG 8 to switch off engine
6 and 7 to open doors (6 for front and 7 for middle), 2 and 3 for blinkers, 4 for body lights, and 1 for lights.
VTOL to tilt steering wheel, and trim up for variable-speed wipers
@catzilla It's coming out on Christmas, 10:00 AM AEST. Check my recent posts for more info.
@AWESOMENESS360 Then again, I am a PC user.
@AndrewGarrison I understand what this is. I can even see a use for it, like finding all those tiny flap mechanism rotators hidden in my wing.
Very nice!
+1Nice car, however controls need to be given in the description.
+1@Omgairplane Just over 1000 parts with a performance cost of just under 5000.
T
This is similar to mine
+1The specs of course, I haven't built a pc in SimplePlanes.

Okay, this needs a spotlight, here you go.
Ah, easy.
+2Build the gear system you described.
Ensure the speed of the door rotators is 50%.
I have the codes somewhere, I'll get them in a bit.

+2add the studs, with the lego text.
It helps to work at nasa.
You are at some point going to surpass me. I officially declare war to get to platinum.
+3I have 32GB of ram and an 11900k

+2@X99STRIKER I believe I am
+1I made it better
Yes, being able to select another part by clicking on it in the connections menu is a new feature with 1.12.
@BeastHunter lol
+1My gaming channel has an intro, but it's only like 10 seconds long.
+2BeastHunter if you're reading this you have already requested a tag on the other three teasers for this plane.
WAIT A DEV UPVOTED
tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

@klm747klm747 I meant like those interactive displays you can watch movies and stuff on. Imagine trying to build just one.
mmm bonk

+2@Bellcat The real problem is he used the HUD without credit at all.
+2This looks, functions, and has the same code as PlanariaLab's HUD.
+1Get it here
Interesting...
WHAT THE ----
This is insane
.
Also when is the massEdit GUI coming out?
@Charris969 I actually have a version with a gun look at the description.
@Omgairplane This is a teaser.
@Omgairplane No, I will use the site's uploading feature like everyone else.
@IceCraftGaming I'm making a Let's Play on it this Sunday.

I just uploaded it to my drive. Good thing I have a copy of every mod in existence for a few years (I have a file hoarding problem). Download the mod
I think this has changed. I get the error if I try, which is weird, because I had access a few months ago
Errr... The images aren't showing up
+1when is it going to be released?
when
@LarryTad Yeah sure it could probably be considered a testbed or something... literally a long/short tube with wings and random engines.
+1@realSavageMan Oh yeah.. just realized,
.
In reality they are standard curved ovals.
