@TheCommentaryGuy I’m sorry, your credibility has been lost here. DCS is arguably the most realistic combat simulator to date, and a far better analog for real combat as compared to SP. Real combat pilots say it’s about 90% accurate to real world combat, with the last 10% actually being the feeling of G forces on your body (see when this same YouTuber fought a Rafale pilot). And if you still disagree, find a better analog we can use that isn’t in your mind. You’ll find it’s more challenging than finding a B-21 on radar.
@TheSolarFlare Indeed she is! Some of the upgraded parts not mentioned are a fully functional cockpit, better handling, g-limitation so you don’t pull insane g-forces, and PSM capable. It’s gonna be quite the fun ride.
This is one hell of a sub, and everything you did on here is fantastic! I can tell you gave it your all, and put a lot of love into this strange yet iconic submarine. Great work, Comrade MintLynx!

Not a bug find, but a request: would it be possible to have a button to “lock” your view? Take for instance I want to modify something strictly from the front view, and wish to move the camera around to modify other things on a build. In the old beta, that was, but didn’t have the same movement as this beta, since now moving it rotates the view, rather than translates. Making a button to lock the view would make it easier for people building, say, fuselage art, or roundels for aircraft.
I feel like it’s a great game, but I still am much more used to SimplePlanes’ UI than SimpleRockets 2. While making rockets in that game is great, planes is a lot harder to make in that game.
It’s always a positive when your phone doesn’t melt when something like this is built. The amount of detail on these builds is really quite astounding, and it functions absolutely great! Keep up the great work, Strike!
Lots of hidden engines, thrust vectoring (recommended for control after maneuvers), and a COM close to the COL.
Check out my Su-67 to learn a bit more about how I did it, if you learn best that way.
@Strikefighter04 @randomusername I understand where you’re coming from. I’ll just add my own little chip of information onto it.

From what I got from this video, he’s a Viet-Nam veteran (which, as we all know, was not a war that was looked upon lightly when they came back, which could have caused his anti-social tendencies). While collecting weapons I see no issue with, something I do see an issue with is the explosives that were brought out. While as a weapons collector, that would make sense, but him having a bomb that very clearly could cause a crater in the ground is something that is very unsafe, unless if it was disarmed. From what I could tell, it looked like a Mk-118 or similar type of bomb, which has a warhead weight of 1,975 American pounds. 1975 pounds of pure explosives! That could blow up his house, his neighbors’ houses, and the one across the gosh-darn street!
.
On a trip I went to Europe, I went to Ponte du Huoc, which used to be a point on the Atlantic Wall where the Germans had put a ton of forces to defend. I have seen personally the damage done by relatively simple 500-1000 pound bombs. The place was littered with craters, some tens of feet deep! While I’m sure he wouldn’t intentionally detonate that, imagine if it did, anyways. There are plenty of stories of people dying to old WWI and II munitions in areas affected by them (I.e. France, Germany, and a lot of Pacific Islands, like Palau) so having a bomb go off for no reason is by no means not a possibility!
.
The mortars also fall under a little worry of me, but not nearly as much as the bombs. While they can certainly cause damage, the explosion would likely only cause severe damage to his house, considering only one of those went off.
.
The guns I have no issue with, as the damage they cause is mainly penetration damage.
.
TL;DR, this is a fairly dangerous scenario, but not the most dangerous scenario that could happen. At least, from what I can presume, is that he complied with police forces.

Okay, I’m done. That’s my chip of info. Continue on with your day/night.
Yep, I think it was for maintenance. I thought it was an issue with my phone, but apparently not.
