@TheMouse I have no experience with hover engines/systems, but I would recommend either a PID or what I used for my autopilot which is a carefully tuned autotrim with a difference modifier.
For the autotrim, carefully record the required throttle to PERFECTLY maintain various altitudes (I'd recommend 500 or 100 feet increments, and again make sure the plane is perfectly maintaining that altitude), then use a regression equation from something like Excel to get the formula. Then put that formula into FT. For the difference modifier, simply subtract the current altitude from the target (with a clamp and multiplier), and add this number to the autotrim.
@SilverStar Yes, any rim can be mixed with any tire. Installation is as simple as making the rim have the same position as the tire, and adjusting the rim's settings so they match the tire (full instructions will be on the mod post).
I really like the cockpit on this, although some labelled diagrams of all the controls would be helpful as it took me some time to find everything listed on the startup sequence.
I don't have much experience with mobile devices, but if it's an Android tablet, you can open the menu in the designer, and click on "3D Print/Export". This should export an OBJ file (I don't know where it will save it though). Transfer the OBJ file to your computer, and convert it to the STL format. Then, it can be imported into your slicer software. If you need further clarification feel free to ask.
@126 I've used a password manager and scrambled unique passwords for all my accounts (also my SP password is like 100 characters lol).

@126 Interestingly they all read like they've been written by an AI. It's like someone just puts prompts like "Write me an article on [insert sketchy product/service]" and pastes the output into a forum post. The bots understanding how to create an account and post a forum/comment is also interesting, and also where the markdown errors come from. They are trying to make formatting like links and bold text, but it's the wrong formatting style (that being said, some of them do get the markdown right).
One thing I would add to this is calculateDrag = false and dragScale = 0 are not the same thing. While they both remove drag, calculateDrag = false removes drag calculations entirely, and can improve performance with lots of parts, while dragScale = 0 still calculates drag, but scales it to 0.
Adding on to what @BaconEggs said, you cannot use variables to directly manipulate any of the standard inputs (examples include Throttle, VTOL, Trim, Pitch, Roll, LandingGear, etc). You can use cockpit controls like yokes, levers, and switches/buttons to control these, but not variables themselves. Unfortunately guns do not have an inputController you can write FT in, so TL;DR you cannot auto fire guns.
@Rb2h Mods actually. The entire craft in the video has less than 1000 parts. (I also have a RTX 4070ti, which runs all the complex 3D models)
So I guess a combination of NASA PC and mods.
@PlaneWelder @tiltglory wait... you guys don't use parentheses??
(I have 40+ deep if statements, and every single one uses parentheses, resulting in quite the closing stack at the end.)
@V Yeah, I was able to copy all my iOS files from my iPad and all my subassemblies and XML files from my iPad days were saved.
Then my iPad went adios a few weeks later.
@ThatRandomCouchPotato Do a full interior. It'll only be like 8000 parts or so for the seats. Any potato could probably run that at 60FPS high quality no problem.

The code you wrote works fine
I'd say it might be a filter to prevent links from working in forums created by new users such as yourself. This would probably be because of spambots which tend to have links to their spam in their forums.
It was: "Removing to prevent drama, the reason for one users ban is nobody’s business but the one who was banned, the others left on their own accord, which is also none of our business as well"
