@CCCP Also, the ugly-good looks are kind of the point. Earlier today I was looking at the Sukhoi T-4, and thought "way to take a beautiful plane like the XB-70 and make it ugly." Then I thought, what if the Soviets had tried to make their own Blackbird?
@Texasfam04 Thanks, glad to hear that. I really can't imagine how it could happen, unless their devices have dodgy inputs (mis-calibrated joystick/mouse, or something like that).
@ChallengerHellcat Well, I can only say the same thing I said earlier -- if there is in fact auto-roll, it's not because of a problem with my builds -- they're mathematically perfectly symmetrical, everything is perfectly aligned -- but because there's something wrong with your device, or the game engine is doing something weird on your device. Maybe when builds are computationally demanding and the device is low-powered, the game engine calculates physics differently. I can only speculate. In any case, I cannot debug a problem I cannot reproduce, so if you do experience auto-roll on my builds, you'll just have to live with it.
@ChallengerHellcat Performance is fine, it goes up hills like a gecko. But you need to work on the body. I'd recommend you build the body separately, out of low-mass blocks, and add a great deal more detail. Once it's finished, save it as a subassembly, then attach it to the chassis.
@Chancey21 if you're gonna be pedantic, it was never used asa bomber, only a high altitude, high speed research aircraft. Moreover, it has twin plasma cannons... What more do you want?
Not bad. Only problem is that yaw is reversed (which you wouldn't notice on mobile). Ideally you'd also have a more stable flight model, so that you can eject earlier while still being sure of hitting the target.
@ChallengerHellcat You're welcome. If you need more examples, they're just a Google image search away. Although maybe Google is blocked in your country, I wouldn't know.
@ChallengerHellcat Yeah. Right now it looks like a matchbox on wheels. Give it more features, curves, angles, etc. Here are some real and fictional examples, try to draw inspiration from them:
@ChallengerHellcat It just makes no sense when I haven't encountered auto-roll in any of my builds, and when I have put a great deal of effort into making my builds the most stable in flight in all of SimplePlanes. If your video is legit, then I can only say that SP must calculate physics differently, and incorrectly, on MacOS. I have several hundred hours of flight testing behind me and not once have I seen auto-roll in any of my builds.
Furthermore, the auto-roll in your video looks very different from the video that another person posted. If that video was legit as well, then SP calculates physics incorrectly on both MacOS and Linux, and differently in each case.
As for my computer, it's not a laptop, but a high-end desktop running Windows.
@ChallengerHellcat You forgot to include the part where you download it from the website, so I can't really accept that as evidence. Meanwhile, here's some (more) evidence of my own. No auto-roll -- not a speck of it.
@ChallengerHellcat Too busy to take 5 minutes to record a video? :) I'm going to take that as confirmation that there never was any auto-roll, and that you just made it up.
Thanks, @ThePilotDude @UnitedStankCrafts @QuickNils
@Stingray glad to hear that. Do you get lag on either device with this build?
@CCCP In Soviet Union we have saying, "don't use bicycle to do tractor's job." Same way, you can't use a phone or tablet to do a real computer's job.
@CCCP Also, the ugly-good looks are kind of the point. Earlier today I was looking at the Sukhoi T-4, and thought "way to take a beautiful plane like the XB-70 and make it ugly." Then I thought, what if the Soviets had tried to make their own Blackbird?
@CCCP Looks are subjective, but this build doesn't have a part count? That's odd, I can see it...
@CCCP Angliskis use 'cheeky' to mean 'offensively bold,' 'not showing respect.'
@CCCP Is ok, proletariat will still win. Is historical inevitability.
@CCCP Da, this post is very serious, as anyone can tell.
@Treadmill103 Is capitalist LIES!
@Treadmill103 Thanks. I've tested on low, medium, and high, and never once experienced auto-roll. Good to have confirmation.
@Texasfam04 Thanks, glad to hear that. I really can't imagine how it could happen, unless their devices have dodgy inputs (mis-calibrated joystick/mouse, or something like that).
@Treadmill103 Quick question, have you ever experienced auto-roll on any of my builds, with or without afterburner on?
@Treadmill103 You think is funny, comrade? Is pride and joy of Soviet Union, proof of superior technology. Please to show respect.
@ChallengerHellcat Well, I can only say the same thing I said earlier -- if there is in fact auto-roll, it's not because of a problem with my builds -- they're mathematically perfectly symmetrical, everything is perfectly aligned -- but because there's something wrong with your device, or the game engine is doing something weird on your device.

@ColonelStriker What meme? This is history, tavarisch.
@Texasfam04 Thanks, I'd appreciate that.
@Texasfam04 Have you flight-tested this build? If yes, did you notice any auto-roll, with or without afterburner?
@WarHawk95 Correct.
@ChallengerHellcat Performance is fine, it goes up hills like a gecko. But you need to work on the body. I'd recommend you build the body separately, out of low-mass blocks, and add a great deal more detail. Once it's finished, save it as a subassembly, then attach it to the chassis.
@ChallengerHellcat Getting there.
@JettStorm thanks, but haven't i been building kickass replicas for a while now?
@Chancey21 if you're gonna be pedantic, it was never used asa bomber, only a high altitude, high speed research aircraft. Moreover, it has twin plasma cannons... What more do you want?
@503rdAirborneSoldier Well, if you wanna play with the big boys, you gotta have the big-boy toys...
@KarpenkoEgor2017 It does have other attributes, you know.
Thanks, @Spectre2520. If you use a PC, you can get the same effects with Reshade and my shader pack (link is on my profile, at the end).
Sweet beans. The front could use some smooth curves, though.
Big engines. I like it.
Not bad. Only problem is that yaw is reversed (which you wouldn't notice on mobile). Ideally you'd also have a more stable flight model, so that you can eject earlier while still being sure of hitting the target.
@Jim1the1Squid You asked a question, I answered.
@Spectre2520 Why not just use bomb(s)? Those can't lock on, and won't be detected as hostile.
@Spectre2520 Here you go. What are you going to use it for?
Thanks, @Jim1the1Squid

@ChallengerHellcat Your chassis are fine, but the bodies need work.
@Spectre2520 Not that many. Count the number of upvotes and comments, and that's how many notifications I get.

@RailfanEthan Sweet beans
Thanks, @ViciousTNT
Thanks, @bang091
@Chancey21 why, what good would that do me? And why 'fictional?'
@Stingray Thanks. I think the shape's not too far off either :) Work, what do you mean, work? This is play :)
@IanPlaysGames825 thank you, I'm very glad you enjoy my work.
@SupremeDorian the point of a game, to me, is not to replicate reality.
@LiamW yeah, it's up there among my favourites.
Interesting design. I suppose bailing out is not an option... :)
@AWESOMENESS360 Or this...
@Mumpsy Quite a long way from this one.
