As someone who has owned SR2 on PC since launch day, and as a beta tester for the mobile version, I can tell you that it is most certainly something to look forward to.
@Jetpackturtle I think part of the reason SimplePlanes had such a high player count at launch is because it launched as a mobile game and thus most of its playerbase is on mobile. You do make a good point (unlike some other people..) but I think part of the reason the player count is so low compared to SP at the moment is due to not being on mobile yet. I think once mobile is released (which is looking like that will be in late August or early September) then the amount of people playing will be much higher.
"When can we expect the mobile (iOS/Android) release?"
We will begin development in early 2019. At this point, it is too early to give a release date estimate. Once we’ve started to peel the onion back we’ll have a better grasp on how long it will take to get the mobile version blasting off.
So there's your answer. SimplePlanes community, if you see someone on here asking this, please refer them to the SR2 FAQ.
The FreeCam mod on Android seems to break the game a bit. When the mod is enabled, it puts you in a permanant Fly By camera type thing, except it doesn't move around occasionally to catch up with your craft. I disabled the mod and all was well, however.
While the craft XML is all available to modify, this makes it much easier for people to do it which is obviously bypassing the limitations we've put in place for the demo. We're removing this post and politely asking that you don't leave this program available on GitHub either for the time being.
@windshifter1 We published a patch yesterday that should have fixed the nuke spam -- make sure the version number on the bottom left says 0.5.4.0.
.
@fffzzension Don't worry, the playable area is only small for the purposes of the demo. In the full game, all of the islands you can see outside of the wall are playable, as well as the whole surrounding sea.
We've seen people asking about whether the game runs on portable PCs such as the Steam Deck, and based on feedback from our playtesters the game does indeed run comfortably on Medium settings on Steam Deck via Proton.
.
In the future we plan to continue making optimizations to hopefully allow the game to run on as many of these devices as possible.

@Graingy I guess I just missed the context then, my bad. Though, having a better read on the context, the open statement of disdain for other members of the community (not to mention yourself, right to your face) on CaptainNoble's part is unacceptable on its own.
.
For posting your stories, I don't think the timing really matters. If you ask me I don't see why you couldn't compile several into one post, though. Solves the spam concern and should make it a little easier to navigate.
@Graingy I'm referring to the "I want you to keep pissing them off" comment -- at best it seems to me that it's rather plainly encouraging you to deliberately bother people, which I'd really rather you guys didn't do.
I constantly misread the word "aromatic" as "aromantic", as in somebody not interested in romance, so I would probably think of an aromantic ginger person

Please try to make major changes to a plane before posting it. Simply painting an object a different color, or adding a few guns is not enough to consider it your own. In the future please credit the original maker, and try to post your own work.

11? That's erm.. unfortunate, considering you need to be at least 13 to have an account here.
+1@TheCreatorandDestroyer99 The link that the upvote button goes to.
+1@Atomicdragon Good job; you've single-handedly earned yourself a ban.
+1The answer is most likely no. Even a very good PC struggles to run Maywar at times, so a mobile device wouldn't fare well against it.

+1The only Bethesda games I have are Morrowind, Oblivion and Skyrim. Though, the only companion I ever had in Skyrim (lydia) got murdered by a Yeti..
+1What do you think of SimpleRockets 2 in its current state with modding support having just been added?
+1The daily Airplane post count is limited per person to prevent spam. If you read the site rules you'd see it says this:
I suggest you read the site rules, which are located at the bottom of the page.

+1GOOD NEWS, EVERYONE!

So there's your answer. SimplePlanes community, if you see someone on here asking this, please refer them to the SR2 FAQ.
+1What if Notaleopard was a Leopard?
+1@Minecraftpoweer The next update is 1.8. The current beta is NOT the 1.8 beta, it is for testing a newer version of the Unity engine.

@Mrcooldude as in they stop working when they touch the water? not sure, can you submit a bug report please?
oh hey I saw you. I think I had my UI turned off staring into the distance in first person
Stay tuned tomorrow for an announcement on a contest we'll be running 👀
