@TunderTunder I already have ideas ranging from missile jammers and cockpit displacement to things I can't disclose without the devs pre-emptively going in and patching them out.
...now i need to think of something else wacky to suggest to people.
.
Perhaps a T-rex with laser eyes, tail mounted surface to air missiles, wearing a wizard hat and a long beard, riding on a tricycle
ive been posting this suggestion under every forum post that said "im bored give me ideas" for at least 7 years now, and after a while, it became a running joke for me to to do. but its even better than i could have ever imagined to finally see it come into reality
@poenix yea, the rest of us were fired for not doing our jobs haha. I got busy at the time due to school stuff personally, but I wouldn't be able to do it nowadays due to work
I haven't been active in the community lately so I don't know any of the current regulars that well, but the funny stuff you put in the forums brightens my mood a lot in these bad times
Don't attach parts to adjacent parts, attach everything to one or multiple central cores. This prevents the explosion and subsequent breakage of connection points from affecting adjacent parts.
.
(This is most easily done via raw XML editing as you can just set the part ID of all connections of a part to a single number instead of screwing around with the connection Editor for hours)
.
This also changes how stresses are applied to the build, so keep in mind that things further from the central core will be weaker and should be attached to a seperate core closer to the part
.
Lastly, partCollisionResponse = disconnectOnlyexists, disallowing parts to explode while still allowing them to disconnect
@Graingy "checking media presence" is it looking for a bootable partition on a storage device. If you plugged in a bootable thumb drive, it would have most likely booted off of that
Your laptop most likely has a dead hard drive, but to be sure, pull out the drive and plug it into something else to see if it can be read.
.
SSDs are incredibly cheap these days and replacing the old dead drive with a 256/512 gig SSD will cost around 40-80USD.
@WNP78 will there be a version of overload in the full release of the game? I intend on making documentation on every XML attribute in the game and an in-game XML editor will make the process much easier. I already intend on examining (and modifying) save data in a seperate text editor so I can get working on the document while the demo is out, but I won't be able to work very fast without it.
I've long since stopped caring about my point count. I'm plat, there's nothing left to achieve. Nowadays I build something in 3 minutes and upload it to the website out of boredom

I assume they'll be like 360 degree insta-lock lightspeed nuclear superweapons, so I think other strategies will be required
+1It's time.
Cocoon from FFXIII
+1Having a short name is nice
+1I'll send in The Velociraptor™ to free them from this predicament
I'm not sure if this was meant to be shared

@TheMouse sorry for you having to endure my much cringier, younger self
One question, how deep did you have to dig through my comments page to see the first mention of the velociraptor

+1@poenix huh, new curators
@SupremeDorian doesn't seem to work on mobile either, getting a "this aircraft has failed to download" message
War thunder sucks anyways, welcome back grain guy

Who got 2nd and 3rd place?
@Unwanted they often take 10-14 business days to arrive
Demo soon™
Congrats on platinum! Your okthxbye permit is in the mail
+1@Graingy I'm on mobile
Works for me (may be the mobile version of the site)
@Graingy we were fired, the devs do it all now
A whole lot of nothing. Waiting to see if my arwing is compatible with SP2
Blimps
Not for long.
Racks shotgun
yes
+1make a turtle helicopter with laser eyes
pronounced like kangaroo
@Boeing727200F yes!
@Boeing727200F yes!
@Boeing727200F @SuperSuperTheSylph @SCtheONE updated the XML as the yaw control was bugged, it can now turn like a car in mid air
+2My go to for exploration, will need this for SP2
@Graingy do you have a USB drive anywhere? As long as it's roughly 8gb or larger, you can put anything you want on it
doesnt have to be an operating system, just an installer, data management tool, etc

@CheeseTruffles having built high precision racers before, I find that reliability is heavily dependent on physics update speed

+6Time to get work on simplecheats 3. And yes I will be attempting to build new things In SP2 via raw XML editing
+9Are the buggies going to be stock craft? They look fun to drive around

havent seen a piston engine plane in ages!
Fun doohickey to mess with, could make for a decent camera rig
