iirc things that are removed end up remaining cached for several minutes afterwards, allowing them to be viewable by the public for a bit. this post got removed because several people reported it as spam, which I agree with
@JustLookingForFriends That shouldn't be happening! I don't think it's anything I can fix myself, so could you please send Jundroo an email? They should be able to help you. Sorry about that.
@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. :)
There's an update available now in the public beta branch on Steam that addresses the nukes and some stability issues -- if it goes well then it'll be pushed to the regular branch tomorrow morning.
@Timplanes the thumbnail calendar is technically inaccurate because I couldn't figure out how to make the days correct without looking bad and I ran out of time to continue thinking about it
Yes, Graingy was temporarily banned yesterday, along with one other person. A bit over two weeks ago they were involved in some rather heated political talk that I had only become aware of yesterday. The gap between when this happened and when they got a strike for it is regrettable and I realize it likely caused some confusion, but conduct like what was seen there is exactly why we don't allow overt discussion of real-world politics here.
@Type89igo Thanks for bringing that to our attention. It turns out that several years ago we had stopped selling the Google Play version in Japan because of some issues that made it too much of a hassle, but it seems like that's no longer a problem so we'll bring it back. Sorry about that.
To be very clear, the v1.12.206 beta is for SimplePlanes 1, it is not a SimplePlanes 2 beta; there is no public beta for SimplePlanes 2 right now. Apologies for the confusion. The comments about deleted posts are also not related, they're just people venting grievances about their posts being removed for violating the site rules (not in any particularly bad way, to be clear, just minor violations).
.
As for mobile, we are still targeting a mobile release in 2026. We appreciate your concern, but we ask that you be patient. We're working on it.
Again, the name was changed (with no repercussions to your account nor any removal of the post) because putting "f*g" in your post title without any context just looks like a slur, especially since as @Cadvalto pointed out that word is practically never used to refer to cigarettes outside places like the United Kingdom and Australia. I understand that it's an homage to the MiG-15 that your craft is inspired by and I trust your intentions, but due to the reasoning I have outlined the name will not be changed back.
@WilosIndomie sure, but without any provided context it looks like a slur.
.
@LunarEclipseSP yup I'm very well aware of the MiG-15's NATO reporting name, but as this craft is fictional and not actually a MiG-15 it's not for historical accuracy.
at the end of the day it's at the moderator's discretion, but typically it applies to low effort stuff that's not related to simpleplanes or aviation, and/or excessively inflammatory posts that are off topic and usually also low effort
Jundroo isn't in any danger from this, especially considering the changes may not even come to pass. If Unity themselves don't end up backtracking on it, then potential lawsuits from huge companies like Microsoft (who would have to foot the bill for Unity games on Game Pass) could force them to backtrack anyway. I wouldn't worry about Jundroo.
We are aware of some of the behaviour present in multiple unofficial community outlets, including SPBC, and it is something I personally would like to deal with in some way in the future; however it is beyond our direct jurisdiction as website moderators. I see a decent amount of distasteful or downright hateful things being said about certain groups of people, mainly transgender people and furries, and it makes me sad to see that a lot of this is just allowed to slip by. This is a game about building vehicles, people shouldn't ruin it for others just because they're being themselves.
It applies site-wide. Contrary to what's being said by @IceCraftGaming and @7, the current events in Ukraine are not an exception to this. We want this to be a place where most people can discuss aviation.
@JoeriV Fair enough. Like I said, though, there's plenty of reason to play SR2 over KSP, and vice-versa. It's up to personal preference at this point. KSP is never getting procedural fuselages or engines or anything of that sort like SR2 has because that kind of isn't the point of it. KSP isn't getting a planet builder, a user-friendly in-game programming system, actually good visuals and optimization (that point in particular can be in KSP 2), and there's one major factor you don't seem to be considering: SR2 is the only game of its kind (that is, a 3D rocketry game) that is available on mobile devices. If nothing else, that is a reason to make it when there's already KSP. You have basically an entire market all to yourself. It's worth noting as well that on PC SR2 is less than half the cost of base KSP. It's $15 US, KSP is $40 US. Mobile version is $5 US. Also, for the record, I don't really like to include KSP 2 in discussions such as this one because it is a AAA game with tons of people working on it daily, whereas KSP and SR2 are not. I prefer to keep comparisons exclusively between those two games. In any case, competition such as KSP and SR2 is good because it makes both games strive to get an edge over the other, resulting in a better product for the consumer.
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
