@thefalkenreich My good friend, I am fully aware of that. However, SledDriver's version suffered from a crippling flaw known as "backwards landing gear". This build here fixes that and Othawne spent countless hours doing so.
I believe it basically affects the number of times the physics engine updates per second, sort of like frames per second but for physics. More updates means more accurate physics, but extra computational cost.
Yes, that is not specifically the swastika used by the Third Reich; however the description of the craft indicates it was used in a way that contradicts that. Here's the relevant quote from the description:
Swastika: Represents loyalty to the Supreme Democracy Party (the longest ruling political party), Supreme Minister and Leftist Nazism (yeah I call it low key Nazism or Nazism with Krakabloan characteristics)
@Kangy You can (probably) expect to see more of me with Eternal gone. That said, most of the stuff I do has always been stuff you can't see, so it will always appear that I'm not around much.
@geek1love Through research, discussions amongst ourselves, and speaking with the involved party, we have determined that, while not unfounded, your assessment about this user's profile picture is incorrect. The user in question is from Russia, and the stuff in their profile picture is all Slavic symbology. We spoke to the user and they confirmed this, as well as the fact the text in the profile picture is also Slavic symbolism. A trusted Russian user we talked to gave us confirmation regarding that as well.
The outline of a man, with a look resembling a "skinhead" with a knife, is based on a photo of them and has nothing to do with neo-nazism, as far as we can tell.
In the future, if you have such concerns, please take them to a moderator in private, either by tagging one of us on an unlisted post, or, preferably, sending a direct message on Discord (you can find mine in my bio) instead of making a public forum post about it. As for the rest of the commenters here, I expect you all to conduct yourselves respectfully from here on out, as you have failed to do thus far.
@RamboJutter @Strikefighter04 You raise a good point, so let me clarify: The rule specifically mentions that you can't have misleading thumbnails. An image of an anime girl can, for all intents and purposes, be considered the same as something like text. It should be pretty clear that said text/anime anime girl is not part of the build. Now, if they were trying to claim that the image of the anime girl is somehow in the build when it isn't, then it would be grounds for removal.
@Wallaby @BuiltBionixInd10 I'm aware of the actual intent of this post, but the "I'm a toddler" part could easily go poorly for you in some other places. @Numbers I know about that, yes. There are some actual instances of that happening but I struggle to think of names off the top of my head.
Congratulations to @SkyJayTheFirst, @Whills, and @ToeTips for winning the challenge! I have just added 2500, 1500, and 1000 points to your accounts. They should appear in the points log on your profile as attributed to your winning crafts. Have a nice day :)
@GhostMach i am a former moderator for this website and a current moderator on its sister site, simplerockets.com. i have had a few months of experience with the automod at this point, so you can trust what i have to say. as stated, you don't have to be concerned about false bans as the automod does not perform moderation actions on its own, it only submits potentially problematic posts for manual review
@asteroidbook345 For the record, I'd like to say that @Clory is correct, and he would know that because he's a moderator on the SR2 site, which has the exact same moderation tools. We cannot restore a deleted user's account; only Andrew can. We also cannot see an account's private information beyond basic IP-sharing logs. Please do not spread misinformation.
@SledDriver Misinterpretation or not, there are still other occasions where you've been, let's just say, a bit less nice than the rules generally allow. While yes I may have misinterpreted what you said, no one else seems to agree that what you said was particularly "nice" so regardless I had to tell you off.
Congra-- wait, isn't middle school 11-13? In that case you were under 13 when you made your account, which would violate the terms of service, and some other stuff I'm too lazy to get into right now.
@GabrielFangster70 Crafts with the original SP1 wings and fuselages will still have those original parts, with their original aesthetics, properties, and physics. That's the goal, anyway -- we can't guarantee that every craft will behave exactly as it did in SP1.
@Graingy Trims can still be manually selected, there's just an "Auto" option now.

@YOURGORILLA1246 This is not what the stock P-51 will look like exactly, but it has been upgraded here in ways we'll be talking about soon ;)
@X4JB Then you should re-read our rules, specifically the section about politics and religion. This applies to everyone. Fact or not, it was a very politically charged statement that served no purpose other than to provoke people that disagree with it.
@CC1010 @Sparky6004 Pirating the game is not cause for a ban, or even a strike. When you pirate a game, however, you are putting yourself at some level of risk as the safety of illegal downloads is often far from guaranteed. What will result in action being taken against your account is promoting the use of pirated content or sending links to pirated content, which is against our Terms of Use.
@Kakhikotchauri1 I recommend buying the game when you can, not only because of the above but also because just because you own the game on Google Play doesn't mean you legally own it on Steam. They are two different storefronts, on two different platforms, therefor you need to purchase both.
@ThatKindaWeeb It's not necessarily that they don't care about the game anymore, it's just that it would take away too much time and resources to update when they have other, higher priority things going on.
@rexrexThezion @Strucker I didn't think it would be necessary to make a post about it. I figured people would be able to see the new dropdown menu before making a forum post about their unlisted posts being "gone".
@JediWolf It's not a joke. A vote was held with the devs and moderators and everyone unanimously agreed that this was the proper way forward. Us moderators even get the Ultra subscription for free!
@Chancey21 @DuckMint Thanks for the advice. Those were all things I was planning on doing (though don't expect any decent builds from me anytime soon haha) but I do intend to be more active here than I was before now. :)
@Renamed71220 hey what about me
+9@asteroidbook345 No, it was the auto-mod. It had too many reports. I re-approved it, however, as it does not violate any rules.

+8@GabrielFangster70 the automod cannot ban people or delete posts, it only reports things to the moderators
+8I wasn't the person who removed it, however:
- It is a bit too far off-topic
- Yes, that is not specifically the swastika used by the Third Reich; however the description of the craft indicates it was used in a way that contradicts that. Here's the relevant quote from the description:

+7@pedro16797 there's something I want to say in response to that comment but site rules probably prevent me from saying it so to the mod server I go

+7you didn't know this?
also bonus fact: it's called Jundroo because that's a nickname people used to call Andrew
+7None shall disrespect the almighty auto-mod

+6@Rb2h not really. the automod doesn't remove content on its own, it requires manual action to be taken on the things it reports
+6welcome to the cult
+6go to bed
+6@NexusGaming Next time, don't look at Urban Dictionary for definitions. It is a place of satire.
+6@RamboJutter
I'm honestly not sure. Anything NSFW/suggestive or otherwise violates the rules is definitely a no-no, though. We'll just have to see how things go.

+6Please update your description to include a list of changes made over the original post, as per this post.
+6@LastManStanding I don't see how a moderator removing a post like we've always done means you don't have freedom
+6@SledDriver Misinterpretation or not, there are still other occasions where you've been, let's just say, a bit less nice than the rules generally allow.

thinking back to how I was years ago sometimes I'm not really sure how I got where I am now, but I'm grateful for it
+5I understand the frustration, but please don't make posts ranting about this, especially not while calling out specific people.
+5@LunarEclipseSP oh my god I did not know about this and you've made my entire day. did you draw that badge yourself?
