@RemakePlanes That's a really cool idea, I might have to go back and redo the tantei myself sometime. Seems like latewar the japs really did retrofit them with strange music, although just 1 cannon.
@ReischetzFokke I could do, but it's basically the same plane style as zero/hayate. I want to work on other projects like twin fighters/light bombers in the future
@Adaxial Definitely download finetuner and overload, they're both good on android. I would say spend more time comparing your build with a blueprint image, going back and forth and back and forth and adjusing endlessly until the three basic shapes - fuselage, wings, tail, are all perfect thickness, lengths, positions. That's the hardest part I spend the most time on. Don't do any detailing or colouring or designing gears until the main part's done. You're detailing is great, I don't need to give any advice here, love that red wing strip.
@RussianAS How did you create the recoil in this? I'm building a Yak9 with boom25 launcher as 45mm cannon. I'm trying to build the firing mechanism that shakes the aircraft with recoil.
@CoolPeach this is the best option to have a form of rotator/hinge that is hooked up to the altitude/speed/direction, (I could make a universal bombsight that would work for any plane with this) but it would still be cool to have easy cockpit components specially for those players who don't use mods to build.
@MethaManAircraft I'll give it a sc250 bomb from my heinkel, throw the final design over when you're done and I'll set that up and add in a few bits and pieces, then throw it back over to you.
This is fantastic and I want to work on this, I'd love to get the bombsight working, and the takeoff RATO bottles working for you for just + 20ish extra parts?
@MethaManAircraft meant control surface, not surface area. You should see health in the part's menu within overload menu. If it's not there, you need to update overload to newest version.
@MethaManAircraft seems like setting max 4 multiplier 0.25 gets same speed at a much slower acceleration. The problem is the fuel is being used up at 4x rate. Also exhaust is scaled 4x length. Great trick though.
@MethaManAircraft You basically use a mod called overload. Within that you can edit surface area values which, default I think is about 35. Using this you can edit pit/roll to your liking. Health is also edited in the overload mod.
I actually can't run this in med settings, which sucks because I'm curious about your gunsight method. Looks great all round. Love the idea of using a piston to shift the reticle forward to increase lead & decrease size of the ring to match enemy distance. Definitely will be using that next time.
Gonna be using this a ton, thanks dude
@STlegacyAircraft Download the overload mod, it's a must for anyone interested in designing on simpleplanes.

What happened with that humble pig?
@Agung44 Sup dude
@RussianAS GENIUS

@costr Steam is "botaweaverfish". Keep in mind I don't speak russian
@costr Sure! What do you need?
@costr Thanks! Keep an eye out for a yak9 soon
@BMilan Sure dude, I never care about that kind of thing, go crazy!
@HellRaiser I don't think anyone's figured out AI turrets, maybe next update would bring some.
@SpiritusRaptor ah yeah, that's the method I used, I'll have a look at it though. Thank you!
Love that dashboard dancer
@Mostly fixed rockets, set them to 1-2 instead of 1-4 and changed some paint tones
@JackTheBestBoss No worries man, I'm getting too lazy with the testing
@HellRaiser set the rockets on the left to firedelay 1, set rockets on the right to 0
@SpiritusRaptor what's your method of embedding a missile into the fuselage?
Check the drag, check the COM, check the mass of parts
If that's all fine, start ripping out parts of the design bit by bit and play them until you figure out exactly what the problem part is
Nice! Did you speed it up a little?
@WNP78 Is it possible that you could increase the GUI size for android phones? Using this mod that is the size of a coin is pretty tough.
Dat Nose
@Scottydoestuff 2 days, now I have free time

@Tengam You can do it pretty easily in finetuner mod, or I could just upload a subassembily
Thanks for the upvote! It pushed me into platinum.
Nice work!
@EpicPigster1 Thanks man. Gonna take a stab at a jet.
@CRJ900Pilot They take a LOT of extra parts to do them well.
@BroAeronautics F4u1-c, with the 20mm American hispanos
Nice!

@MethaManAircraft I'd love to see it, no need to credit me.
I could write some stuff on toying with connections and the tricks you can pull off if you're interested. Health/Dmg too.

My kind of work
English Electric is a nice touch
Love the cockpit dude.

@Flightsonic This is new to me, default is Max = 1? Gonna test it out.

Any good enemy bombers for this?
@Oski Swedes made about 200. Never needed to use them.
@Hazzerboraco Yup, you wanna test one?
@503rdAirborneSoldier of course not! Go crazy.
