@CruzerBlade normally this happens if the mass is less than 1 or if there is a clash of parts where collisions havnt been disabled. If none of that works, it's over my head sorry.
@rippedoffdog look ive got better things to do than type to you all night, ive said sorry for not asking first, i did point out to you in april that I was using your artwork to develop working aircraft on here to which you replied, and I quote "really appreciate that - thanks". Game over. I didnt set out to "rip off" anything, ive given credit where credit is due and referenced you and your work (no different to any assignment or uni work in creation), ive not financially or intellectually benefitted from doing this and your stropping about nothing. This isnt the place to do this so if you want to talk further just message me on DA (which I may quit soon anyway as i dont want to have any more "awesome designs" influencing my builds on here. Thanks. Sorry to anyone else that has to read this stuff.
@TheDepressedPig yeah I know that feeling. I don't build for upvotes per se, it's just a bit strange and I suppose frustrating when you put a lot of effort in to make something good with things like semirealistic trailing edges and then you get 20 votes and some dude builds a turkey and gets double that (I was going to say flying brick but someone just did that and I didn't want use that as a comparison ;) )
@jamesPLANESii thanks for the spotlight and comments, it is fun to fly, if you hold the ground speed to about 70 you can trundle around with the nose held up :)
@MoonKnight yeah not many participants, I even kept the part count down so tablet users could join in but meh, nvm. Thanks for playing. Feel free to play with any of my builds, my javelin and buccaneer are awesome (If I do say so myself)
@FuzzyAircraftProductions what about the buccaneers operated as private tourist chauferring passenger jets in South Africa? Still only 1 pilot and 1 passenger though. If that's acceptable then: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/zc94pH/Blackburn-Buccaneer-S-2B-6-0 would be an entry.
@jamesPLANESii in a passenger container in the bomb bay, it's even detachable in emergencies :) one of the attached photos showed it, but as imgur appears to given up working I have to explain..
@ChiChiWerx yeah and if you drop it while turning etc or leave it too late for the chute they get high g throwing around, but i liked the concept and as i dont build passenger aircraft I thought a bit of a conversion would be a good idea.
@BaconRoll its an ex mil aircraft now in civilian attire, civs dont need to hide they need to be seen =) besides the game sort of chose the colour when i altered the palette =)
@FuzzyAircraftProductions I was all up for it until the last line, passenger aircraft... does a 2 seat fighter count (the nav was a passenger afterall)?
@MoonKnight @AvroPilot well as there was only two entries i would like to thank you for taking part and I've decided you may as well both be winners :)
@Alien artistic licence is to be encouraged :) . That bit about the harriers, I'm sure I read about that somewhere, wasn't that launched from a carrier with buccs for tankers or is my memory playing tricks again.
@Tang0five yeah I'm pondering, a gnat would let me do a yellowjack, red arrow and the trainer scheme (I've got photos of all 3 flying st Waddington etc before the tragic accident). The fr46 the contra rotating version? I was looking at a no xvi or xiv clipped wing spitfire but I don't know.
@Tang0five I am pondering what's next, I fancy playing with a folland gnat, or mby going back to ww1 or 2, a sea fury or bearcat for instance. But I deffo to need a break first.
@Tang0five yeah I know what you mean There, I find the scale stuff takes a disproportionate amount of time and effort, so when I can I like to just bolt bits together.
@Sunnyskies as man it's an awesome bit if kit, I've stood near them as they thunder down a runway and watched documentaries showing how they bosses the yanks at red flag etc, designed for a purpose that they fulfilled perfectly. Plus with all those pivoting, rotating and turning bits it's ideal for this game :)
@ChiChiWerx thanks man, that's one of the most detailed and positive comments I've had. Glad you like it, I enjoyed building it but as you can imagine with so many moving bits I'm a bit frazzled (I so wish the game wouldn't randomly attach parts, I'm working on the airbrake so why has the nose stopped working... ). Thanks again :)
@F104Deathtrap thanks for the positive comments, really appreciate them. I just wish I'd realised the wings where too fat earlier as it's a pain to re-build now.
My builds are super Awesome (apart from when they arnt), people vote for what they like, not necessarily how good they are, my most upvotes plane (and downloaded) was one of my earliest, I've made much better since, but heho that's what happens. It can be demotivating (and don't forget platinum users don't get spotlights either) but I just build for fun, that's what the game is about, upvotes etc are just an added bonus.
@denialofservice erm it wasn't intended for votes or as an example of exemplary craftsmanship, it was me helping someone out... that was it. Is that wrong or something?
@Tang0five oh no, I hadn't thought of it that way... I was just going to build interstellar British aircraft on it ;) sr53 gets to the moon.
@WarHawk95 thanks for the comment I'm focusing on replicas at present anyway.
@LiamW k, I will give it a go ty.
I'm a rebel. Toooo tempting. Sorry

@rippedoffdog oh look, a credit for the design (not the build as you didnt contribute) and a link to your site, what more could you want??? Grow up.

@Trainzo thanks man Im super happy with the way this turned out. Thanks for your support.
aw i didnt see this till too late, i love flying wings, ive build an Arado E555 and a YB49.
lol you been looking at my builds again....
@SemedianIndustries havnt seen it, I've seen the Farnborough air show footage though
@SemedianIndustries Eh?
@FuzzyAircraftProductions what about the buccaneers operated as private tourist chauferring passenger jets in South Africa? Still only 1 pilot and 1 passenger though. If that's acceptable then: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/zc94pH/Blackburn-Buccaneer-S-2B-6-0 would be an entry.
@FuzzyAircraftProductions you said it had to have more than 80 parts so I erred on the safe side of 80 :)
@jamesPLANESii thanks, your fuzzy mate isn't replying to anyone who is asking questions on the comp though.
@jamesPLANESii in a passenger container in the bomb bay, it's even detachable in emergencies :) one of the attached photos showed it, but as imgur appears to given up working I have to explain..
@Moosehouse yes I can, but I don't know if I really want to, why not try it yourself?
@FuzzyAircraftProductions here's another, https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/l9TgRe/Passenger-jet-challenge-1-1
@ChiChiWerx yeah and if you drop it while turning etc or leave it too late for the chute they get high g throwing around, but i liked the concept and as i dont build passenger aircraft I thought a bit of a conversion would be a good idea.

@FuzzyAircraftProductions I was all up for it until the last line, passenger aircraft... does a 2 seat fighter count (the nav was a passenger afterall)?
@Vuki11 it's an all moving tail plane, it's only down when the elevator is applied.
@MoonKnight @AvroPilot well as there was only two entries i would like to thank you for taking part and I've decided you may as well both be winners :)
@Alien artistic licence is to be encouraged :) . That bit about the harriers, I'm sure I read about that somewhere, wasn't that launched from a carrier with buccs for tankers or is my memory playing tricks again.
@Alien I don't know how I missed this, I thought it was real until the bit about intercepting fighters :)
@Alien thanks, I'm looking on the positive side, it has extra manoeuvrability if u turn right :) glad you liked it though.
@Maxwell1 I was just considering the same thing.... but I've already put the effort in so that leaves only one option :) hmmm death by xml?
@Tang0five yeah I'm pondering, a gnat would let me do a yellowjack, red arrow and the trainer scheme (I've got photos of all 3 flying st Waddington etc before the tragic accident). The fr46 the contra rotating version? I was looking at a no xvi or xiv clipped wing spitfire but I don't know.
Lol, what help do you need simpleplanesmaster?
@SmokyMatchBox like thisky, build an an225 for realsies
@Tang0five I am pondering what's next, I fancy playing with a folland gnat, or mby going back to ww1 or 2, a sea fury or bearcat for instance. But I deffo to need a break first.
@BaconRoll yep, didn't even check or else would have added the last 3 :)
@Tang0five yeah I know what you mean There, I find the scale stuff takes a disproportionate amount of time and effort, so when I can I like to just bolt bits together.
@jamesPLANESii I always thought it was garrison, you appear to have typoed
@bjac0 thanks for the spotlight, my one and only spotlight friend :)

@BaconRoll thanks man, took a lot of work.
@AvroPilot thanks, I look forward to seeing it.
@F104Deathtrap thanks for the positive comments, really appreciate them. I just wish I'd realised the wings where too fat earlier as it's a pain to re-build now.
@F104Deathtrap ty, glad you enjoyed it :)
@Tang0five thanks man, don't worry about it, I've only done 1 comp before and I came last...

Mby cos it's called simple planes and that's a car, and cars are boring even if they are well built.
@MoonKnight cool ty, ill give it a week or so more to see if there are any more entries, thanks for playing.
