@Dracul0Anderson oh!? I'd be happy to help in any way I can!
But maybe we should make it a yearly thing and wait till next year. That way We'll have a lot more time to prepare and plan. One of the biggest issues I had taking care of this challenge, was most of it wasn't exactly planned. After putting the challenge itself up on the sight, I kind of just went with the flow. Don't want that happening again, even though I personally have a knack for it.
Also.... this is a little bit of a selfish request. Can this challenge be remembered as one of the most ambitous challenges? I've put a lot of work into this... And i want atleast you participants to be talking and looking back on this challenge years down the line as a sort... Celebration of simpleplanes. it didn't FULLY hit the "celebration" part... but it gathered a large portion of the community together and got enough attention to rope in Dorain to sponsor it. It's been a ride and a half for me and this chapter of simpleplanes will soon be ending because of studies too. This might be my last endeavor here, and I would like to be remembered for more than just asking "Will there be simpleplanes 2". I want to be remembered for making something that will bring us all together to create a bit of excitement for simpleplanes 2. That was one of the big things after all. I wanted to this to be my send off to simpleplanes, in a way. i may make more of my own aircraft in the future, but the ambition and effort I put into this thing came from a special place. It's for genuinely all the love the place has given me all these years, People, mods, Andrew and the dev team themselves... SO in basic words, i want this challenge to be remembered as memento of love and dedication some player had for this really cool plane game. Can you guys do that for me?
@JBPAviation Here ya go. You can also go see the trophies I made them
@keiyronelleavgeek566 You seemed interested to see who wins as well. Hope you don't mind the ping! Thanks for the support, you two.
Those who's aircraft are mentioned above as judged can request the scores right now, makes my job easier.
Those who's is not done, You guys can tell me if you still want a full length doc or just highlights.
@SupremeDorian
Here's the final confirmation and the Direct links also provided to the builds. As for profile links, those are there in the pin comment.
I've been wondering about how these affect realism and ease of build. This isn't necessarily a development concern, it's more on the community... But I wonder if planes from Simpleplanes 2 that look as good as Simpleplanes 1 builds will be scrutinized.
Very clearly, these tools have gotten quite the ways more advanced here, and the parts look bloody amazing, which I believe we were told will be the next thing discussed on the discord (Go join it peeps, amazing place).
@Wz ah, I see. Well, rest well! I'm excited to see this whenever you feel like coming back to it! I think it looks really cool. If you do decide to coming back, make it a successor and I'll give you 20 upvotes, or don't, and not get the reward. Tag me if you ever do complete it tho... And don't bes surprised if you get 20 upvotes anyway if I think your planes are cool.
@Graingy @Axartar
To be honest, what would be much cooler is letting players create a custom tag for challenge winners. Instead of just points, you get a badge of honor that maybe looks cool. Even better if the challenge makers themselves get to design the badge
Like, imagine that... SupremeDorian : Winner of the best moderator challenge
OR Graingy : Winner of Quirkiest aircraft challenge
@Wz it's not a problem. Finish the plane. I like it and might still include it for participation rewards. I'll only disqualify you from podium, so you will have absolutely no chance to get first, second, or third, but I'll give you your 20 upvotes for trying.
@ToeTips lmao. If you think this was going to take away your first, wait until you find about the stuff some others were working on.
Don't discourage yourself. You have a fair chance until I literally tell you otherwise.
@ToeTips it was sleepy time for me. In case you didn't catch someone else, I'll get back to you in like 3 hours time after this comment. Don't worry about the time running out, I already made acomment staying your plane is ready.
@ToeTips don't worry, someone else already did. In fact, even contenders are helping each other. I don't think screenshots a re big enough collaboration to count as a collab.
@ToeTips truth is, were already delayed by 3 days... But let's see... If there is large demand, then I might consider late submissions with a little point deduction
@ToeTips really taking full advantage of the multiple submissions, aren't you?
(I'm assuming everything you're talking about are challenge submissions? Note that you have less than 3 and a half days left)

@Supersoli8 probably not. simpleplanes 2 aircraft will have parts that Simpleplanes 1 probably does not.

@rorrE 9*
Really, and then there are another four on the way
@ToeTips don't worry, someone else already did. In fact, even contenders are helping each other. I don't think screenshots a re big enough collaboration to count as a collab.
@ToeTips shouldve told me earlier, I do those. I'll get home in a few hours. Let me know if I can do it or you have someone
@ToeTips if you can honestly finish it off before time ends, then the publishing part can wait another hour.
So this one is really just made as a tech demonstration drone. Nice!
@Numbers2 sure!
@ToeTips I wonder how it's coming along. You have around 20 hours left
@FartResidue closed on 23rd may
