  • Drag Point Issues: 2.4 years ago

    @HuskyDynamics01 Interesting. The drag points changed with the addition of wing wheels (despite them not being anywhere near the pieces that increased in drag). I would assume this is simply a minor bug of sorts.

    I'll manually edit the drag scale to something more suitable for sailplanes.

  • (TEASER) Condor: 2.4 years ago

    @OwO Unless you meant having a curved trailing/leading edge.
    In that case, I would have to completely redesign the wings, due to the technique I use for fuselage wings (which works very well, but is more time consuming).

  • (TEASER) Condor: 2.4 years ago

    @OwO Interesting. It would be a bit awkward with the current wing shape though, and I already have winglets.
    Plus, the inverted winglets prevent the ailerons from colliding with the ground.

  • (TEASER) Condor: 2.4 years ago

    @OwO Do you have a suggestion for it?

  • I’m making an Unducted Fan engine 2.4 years ago

    NASA has some UDF footage that can be used as a reference if needed. It should be pretty easy to find on YouTube.

  • I’m gonna keep this suggestion simple not complex. 2.4 years ago

    Flexible fuselages would make a neat mod (though I can see why that would be a lag nightmare in certain cases).

    One thing I will say about wingflex is that it needs a rework. The way the joints translate instead of just rotating like an actual joint tends to make the wings/rotors look atrocious, leading to having to settle with Wing-2 wings (which is fine, but requires extra work to get ideal flex).

    Type "T" for tag requests.

  • Can we make middle doors? 2.4 years ago

    Try this:

    ceil(smooth(clamp01(FireWeapons), 0.5))
    

    This may or may not work, since I haven't tested this.
    You may need to adjust the number for more/less delay. The current delay is at 2 seconds.

  • What is the main multiplayer server IP? 2.4 years ago

    @ColonelCanada I know of two backup servers (they're listed in my profile), but the last time I checked neither of them worked.
    Though, it's been awhile since I last checked so I might need to revisit that.

  • What is the main multiplayer server IP? 2.4 years ago

    In addition to Kangy's comment, it's the only functioning public server (that we know of).

  • Suggestions are not going the right way (opinion) 2.4 years ago

    And of course, modding exists as well.
    If a player really wants a new feature added, they could always try to learn modding and do it themselves (easier said than done, but still).

  • Suggestions are not going the right way (opinion) 2.4 years ago

    SimplePlanes has its own quality.
    It may have it's inconveniences, but in my opinion it simply pushes the player to get creative and find solutions.
    Certain things could be improved of course, but I think the original feel should be kept (at least for now).
    And yes, a CS-Editor would be fantastic.
    Thank you for addressing this.

  • Imagine that you have the source code of SP 2.4 years ago

    @L3FTxR1GHT Mod support was removed from mobile devices (mostly).
    The only way as of now would be to have the mods included with the stock game upon purchase.

  • Imagine that you have the source code of SP 2.4 years ago

    @L3FTxR1GHT I'm fairly certain that's Apple related and not source code related.
    In other words, Jundroo can't change that.

  • What happened to Spark1645? 2.4 years ago

    @SONYPVM9041QM No idea.

  • SimplePlanes Multiplayer 2.4 years ago

    @Iliketoflyfastandlow The server you're trying to connect to is likely either full or non-functional.

  • SimplePlanes Multiplayer 2.4 years ago

    @RiddenOfPixels What exactly is the issue?

  • I’m bored 2.4 years ago

    Here's my advice: if you want planes, then make them.

  • What happened to Spark1645? 2.4 years ago

    I believe they deleted their account.

  • SimplePlanes Multiplayer 2.4 years ago

    @Nonamebasicplayer Ah, I think I see what you mean.
    If you get the "Multiplayer mod is up-to-date." message when trying to connect, but nothing happens, then your probably experiencing a high-ping issue (which is common with the current server).
    In that case, you will just have to wait until the ping goes down enough to connect. This can take a while at times.

  • SimplePlanes Multiplayer 2.4 years ago

    @Nonamebasicplayer That's not an error, that's the mod telling you that you are using the newest version.

    Note: I apologize for the less-than-favorable nosewheel steering. I've tried just about every solution I can think of to counter the drifting, but the current adjustment algorithm was the best one I could come up with.

    @VTPADELTA As far as I know.

  • Engine Startup Help 2.4 years ago

    I'm not very familiar with the advanced startup procedures.
    However, if you're looking for a simple startup, clamp01(Activate#)+(Throttle*clamp01(Activate#)) should work pretty well for jet engines.

  • How to remove wobble on Hinge Rotator 2.4 years ago

    Either use a control base or increase the mass of the rotators significantly.

  • Questions about helicopters 2.4 years ago

    I'm not extremely experienced with building helicopters, but I can say that if you plan building a coaxial chopper I would definitely recommend adding stabilized yaw control to the rotors (not using a gyroscope).

    Since I'm on the subject of gyros, I would simply avoid using them entirely. If you want an auto-hover system I would simply program it into the rotors. If the helicopter is a bit (or very) unstable then add a fly-by-wire system.

    Again, I am by no means an expert on this subject. These are just my personal recommendations.
