@mrcarrot @dathcha Carrot, I think dathcha was just trying to make a joke. I read his other stuff and he seems to be a nice guy. That's the problem with the "Written Word" , you can't see the person's face or hear their voice so it's SUPER easy to misinterpret what is being said. When I first read it, I thought (and still do) think he was making a joke. I swear Carrot the written word has to be the Worst way to communicate. any who.... Im excited because I am going to the range Sunday to target shoot some paper. I haven't been to the range in a year or so. I'm SO excited Carrot ! ! !
@durpoutboy if you have a chance, while you're on the runway switch to orbit view mode and zoom in on R2. Next press activate 2 so you can see his computer interface connect to the X-Wing. Next, press activate 3 and you will see his ion cannon come out and if you target someone he will begin to stare at them. Finally, while still looking at R2, switch to ground attack mode and fire some rockets.. lol Z ;)
@AndrewGarrison Thank you Andrew for the spotlight on the X-Wing, that is HUGE. I flew it in VR a few times and it's perfect for VR. The weapons. Targeting, and countermeasures are all programed into the yoke / throttle buttons
@AndrewGarrison Thank you for the upvote. It means a bunch to me. I feal that my best work is the final version of my X-Wing If you do have the time to fly it, before you take off, switch to orbit view and look at R2D2. Press activate 2 and you will see R2's computer interface connect with the X-Wing (Activates afterburners). Next, press activate 3 and this will put R2 in "Upset" mode. His Ion cannon will come out & he will constantly stare at the enemy you have targeted. He will also fire his Ion cannon (the most powerful weapon on the ship) He can aim it himself but he will only get you close. You still have to control the elevation of the shots. There is much much more to this build. Best HUD in Simple Planes via Guyfolk. Anticipation reticle, diamond shaped lock over target etc. Part of R2's head will pop-up and he will shoot rockets for ground targets, in air refueling, landing hook, automatic attack wing foils that will open and close based on speed. The list goes on and on. Finally, there is a system status display that shows the state of ALL system on the aircraft. I think it's my best work.
@DaDEMON1o1 Thank you ! That means so much to me when someone flies my aircraft and likes it ! It does great in VR as well trigger buttons etc are all programed into the yoke..
@WeregarurumonGaruru Thanks for the upvote and being cool about me using part of your plane ! I upvoted and SPOTLIGHTED your original. Last I counted you had about 4600 downloads. Impressive my friend !
@2Staple Hey 2Staple, this is a blast to fly in VR on your Oculus ! Firing weapons, changing targets, changing weapons, and deploying countermeasures are all programed into the flight stick and throttle ! ! I love this in VR !
@Dragoranos @2Staple thank you for the upvotes I hope you take the time to fly it and have some fun with it. It's kind of cool to sit on the runway in orbit view and look at R2D2 as he fires rockets and stuff
@GuyFolk LOL I appreciate it. You know for a long time I have wished for you to double the size of your HUD. Is that something you could do or is it too complicated. Also, Winswings is a friend of mine since we started the game. We speak on the phone sometimes. Anyways, I digress.... Carrot showed me a way to share his builds while still keeping them private. Just by putting my name in a comment. So, I showed this to Win (His real first name) and he and I were bouncing a plane between us. MY POINT is if you were to infact double this HUD for me, you could share it with me in this manner (still keeping it private not public) Your thoughts ?
@sus232 Thank you SUS232 I'm glad you are having fun with it. I tried it in VR and made some small adjustments. If you use VR, weapon firing, target selection, weapon selection and countermeasures can all be done with the flight stick and the buttons on the throttle.
@X99STRIKER Your welcome and thanks for the kind words ! It's means a bunch to me that you enjoy my work. Sometimes I will spend an entire day on 1 small detail. For instance, I wasn't sure how many people were actually opening the attack wings. And, if you land with them open, it is easy to damage them. So now they open based on speed. But what took me so long was to get the display to automatically read the percentage of Extension of the wings at any given time. I really don't know coding but I am smart enough to make small modifications to the code and see the effect it had. Then I kind of just figure it out as I go.... Lol..... Z ;)
@MrCOPTY Thanks for copying me on this ! How did I miss this !?!? It's great ! I really like the cockpit with WORKING features. Reverse, little throttle / flap monitor to the left of the pilot. Engine on or off. This is really great work.
@toorbokkot @Maverick099 @MitchellAviation @SemedianIndustries Thank you for the upvote and I hope you can make the time to fly it. Try landing by only using reverse thrust. Come at the runway at full power and STAY at full power. About 1000 meters (yards) you will get better w practice, press REVRS. Land the aircraft, come to zero mph, then IMMEDIATELY shut down your engines. It takes some practice, but it's fun.
If you are not familiar with my work, in my builds I use the following items. I use a HUD created by @guyfolk it has degree lines, an anticipation reticle for cannon fire, & diamond shaped lock indicator. Most consider it the best HUD in SimplePlanes. But, most people copy the HUD (label) without inputing the variables that make it funtion correctly. My missiles are always ICG Interceptors. I call them this because they were created by @IceCraftGaming These missiles will continue to chase targets even after an initial miss. They are like a cat on catnip. The cannon on this build, semi automatic aiming, range finding exploding rounds were originally created by @guyfolk He was also kind enough to help me modify one of his displays to create my system status display.
@Shimamurahougetsu @BuiltBionixInd10 thank you for the upvotes, I hope you can spare some time to fly it. R2-d2s ion cannon is a lot of fun in air to air combat. also the entire X-Wing really corners well. Thanks again. Z ;)
@MrCarrot cool, this one has automatic attack foils based on speed, the display will tell you the percent of the attack foils open. Land at full power and hit the reverse thrust button, remain in full power about a thousand yards before the runway. Then kill the reverse thrust, and the engines.

@mrcarrot did it work ? Can you see the new X-Wing ?
