@Dathcha @Legomaster0418 I'm on the Steam version and although the symbol [ is moved to the bottom instead of the top like Sandbox, it's alphabetical otherwise. That is even weirder if this isn't the same on every version of the game by now :/
Either way, we still desperately need a search bar.
@zou27877
Suspension strength: How stiff the springs are
Suspension damper: How much the springs move vertically
Energy retention is tied to an airbrake that increases the drag when you turn, pull AOA, or climb
Here's one: You can open the variables tab even after already opening it by clicking the button again.
6 and 7 are false though, as HuskyDynamics01 said
Yaw while on the ground could be due to the suspension being too soft or the brakes not being strong enough.
If you're using a resizable wheel for the nose gear that may be an issue too. If that's the case, try using 2 mirrored resizable wheels in the same spot to create the illusion of one wheel.
If you're using suspension, see if you can use the resizable wheel's built in suspension, since its the most stable.

This would be an interesting feature. Sifting through the usernames of everyone who wants tags and then tagging them 3 at a time gets annoying.

Not sure if the upvotes section would be the best place to put the tags for posts though.

Still though, only 4.5%? Damn.
Get the Steam version.
Steam has an overlay, where you can use a Steam browser to open SimplePlanes.com. If you have SimplePlanes.com in a Steam browser with the game open, when you download a plane, it automatically appears in game.
Waffles.
If you compare toaster waffles to legit pancakes, that's unfair. Legit waffles have a better texture and flavor AND literally have built in giant syrup wells.
@CoolPeach Ooh okay. I'm guessing SenSkysh uses some weird imperfect way to approximate ballistics. Definitely a problem for naval guns
That must be why I had problems making my railgun work without proxy detonation
@CoolPeach When I used SenSkysh's with the cannon box checked for my AH-1G's 40mm it worked fine
Granted, I don't know what it's doing to calculate the bullet drop
It is possible! :)
There is also a way to add proximity detonation by calculating the time it takes for the shell to reach the target using distance and muzzle velocity. Guyfolk has FT for this on his Strike Wyvern if you want to try reverse-engineering it.
@gkgur Yeah, it's all good :)
When I started doing alternate loadouts, I started doing a lot of research on hardpoint compatibility and launch rails, etc.
Oh hey I didn't think my posts would start getting grandchildren
Fun fact: If you want to mount AIM-9's to the pylon station 3/7, you need the small pylon (the same one on station 2/8) coupled with an LAU-128 rack. The medium and large size pylons aren't for missiles afaik.
Kinda reminds me of a Leman Russ

@ssenmodnar If you want to use hinges, you can also build the doors closed and have them open when LandingGear=0
+1@SemiCollin That is actually intentional
If you look in the variables, you'll see the FT i used for that effect as well

Glad you like the Phantom so far!

@asteroidbook345 The variable part is technically optional, but it makes the FT easier to access for later
