In Skypark lore, the was a previous aircraft that also wielded a laser gun, but it had to have a large reactor mounted on it to power the gun, which also took up the entire weapons by. This plane is essentially a successor to that original aircraft, with the same pilot as the original, so the chosen paint scheme of said pilot was migrated to this plane.
@Grob0s0VBRa
I noticed you seem to be making a very large mech. I have found that when making really big things, it's best to eliminate all drag by setting CalculateDrag to False. Drag eats of a massive chunk of processing power, and the SP simplecheats page recommends the previously stated method to also cut down on lag.
@Mod
Do you mind if I make a forum post wishlist that I link here? Cause I have a lot of thoughts(and regular wishlist stuff) that I really haven't voiced properly.
@StockPlanesRemastered
True, that Doe seem to work, but I am of the opinion that you shouldn't have to edit a basic, non-funky tree function just to make it work. better to remove the wobble then to try to work around it, being that it is not a result of massive edits or complex FT codes.
I would like point out a small issue that's kinda annoying. The rotators & hinges tend to have a wobbling problem when you start using them on big things, upscaled or not, be it on slightly unusual things like mechs, or more normal things like ships or cranes. IF there is a way to remedy that with this maintenance update, that'd be nice. If not then hopefully it can be prevented in SP2
@SupremeDorian please forgive the @, but I just remembered this one detail that is actually sorta significant to the aforementioned problem.
Edit, a day later: I forgot to mention that the wobbling occurs on both ends, aka if the base is big(upscaled or not), the part the joint is moving will wobble like it's really big, even though it's not.
@CrestelAeronautics
Also, yes, this plane(and by extension my country are part of the overall Simpleverse that the MDA is. Also, mind telling me how you involved the elestrosphere(cause I'm pretty sure it will differ from how I involved it)?
???: It would seem you think bringing some outdated plane is going to save you.
[ Dismissive laugh]
You will not succeed in your futile effort to defend yourself, just like Skypark.
@RestlessGalaxies
I was able to get a G-limiter, though I had to get a bit creative. Also, it's funny you have VTOL capability as a requirement. That I have found, almost all current and planning next-gen fighters aren't VTOL.
@11qazxc
I know a very simple hover controller: the gyro. Now, fairness in advertising, I actually tried to make a gyro-less stabilization system with a prior plane, the F-2 Longbow, but I just couldn't figure it out. I'd probably need way more time then the challenge allows to properly figure out how to create a stabilization system.

I should point out, time between upvotes is only around 15 seconds. Now if he was giving out spotlights on the other hand, that would take forever.
@RestlessGalaxies
When in between phases of barely-having-the-motivation-to-move, I can get sh*t done. Besides, I've always found making the plane is the easy part. Adding all the functionality and interiors and FT codes is the difficult part.
@LunarEclipseSP "Yes, I literally stole this straight up from Modern Warships so why not?" Buddy, I've incorporated things from Ace Combat, The Macross series(Gundam isn't safe anymore either), artists I've found, and the short series Murder Drones into the lore of Skypark, and considering no one's raised hell about any of it, I think you're fine. Saying that now inspires me to maoe a list of all the sh*t I've made a part of Skypark.
@RB107
A suggestion that might help with not killing a phone: when you start building, set the first fuselage block you use to CalculateDrag to false, along with any and all subsequent parts. This really reduces lag, since drag seems to take up a bit of processing power.
@UnitedinOne90
Fear not, oh United One, for I already have a group of bomber aircraft heading for snowstone to blast reformist garbage into oblivion. We can add this to the list of targets if you so wish. :)
@SILVERPANZER
Why stop going at that goal? Despite for a while thinking no one cared about my stuff, I developed my fictional country, establishing it's place in the community. And I just have to say, if you made a challenge or a war challenge, I'd be game.
Fun fact: my brute force method of disabling the turrets is making a location right between them, when spawning a cockpit with a bomb above it in that spot. When the bomb drops, it takes out the turrets
@CapitanianMonarch
I know the feeling. For most of my time on this site my stuff didn't get much attention. It took literal years to get where I am now.
Wright better control their protestors. Skypark is going to be smack a reformist held airfield close by, and we don't want civilians getting bombed.
Skypark will not be interfering with internal affairs, unless asked for.
Feel free to let me know what you think of this, or if you feel similarly.

If you don't see it as a war crime....why are we here?

This sucker took most of a week to make. I nearly lost my mind(again) trying to make this work.

This is why I still stick to ol' reliable: uploading a fixed version of whatever the original was.

How's your plane going? I'm going through hell putting in all the functionality of mine.
Also, @RestlessGalaxies, do you know the kind of pain trying to implement a G-limiter brings?

+1I like the format, might try it.
Coming back to this, I now realize that my Epsilon class carrier is even bigger then this.

I hope this doesn't effect the making of a strengths-and-weaknesses forum. Remember, not everyone has a Discord.
