  • Funky help 1.8 years ago

    @ToeTips afaik the distance between the CoL and control surface doesn't matter
    Generally, the further away the wing or control surface is from the CoM, the more rotation is produced. Even though the lift is the same, the rotation moment/torque around the CoM is greater.

  • Funky help 1.8 years ago

    @ToeTips abs converts negative numbers to positive. It's not a condition statement
    Just find some good values that you can replace 90 with at different speeds, try to fit a curve to it, and write it in FT

  • Funky help 1.8 years ago

    @ToeTips since you divide instead of multiply, you must increase 90 when fast

  • Funky help 1.8 years ago

    I mean that if your plane has this kind of issue, trying to fix it with FT should be the last thing you try
    But if you want to make a roll by funky tree, you can try to reduce the multiplier as speed increases, since the oscillation only happens at high speed.

    You may have a colliding/loose part, or your elevators are not equal

  • ALOUETTE (NJE32) 1.8 years ago

    @KyonIndustries I can't help you to build the instrument panel, but I might be able to help if you need FT or labels.
    If you are making a 340B, this or this can help you line up the instruments. You can't see what's what from the pictures there, so maybe look at flight sim videos for that.
    There is also a probably illegal website that you can find quickly if you search "saab 340 cockpit", it has flight manuals but I didn't find any instrument panel diagram.
    Also instrument sizes, can't remember the correct scale % so you should try it out

    illegal stealth ping, even was on an unfinished plane smh my head

  • Funk help 1.8 years ago

    example
    Example SETTER EngineInput:
    smooth(VTOL, EngineInput<VTOL?0.2:10)
    Engine throttleResponse must be greater than or equal to the maximum smooth value, in this case 10.

  • How do I change the pattern of missile launches? 1.8 years ago

    Innermost weapons always fire first iirc, you can't change it (unless you make the player choose the missile to launch, or try programming in the game)

  • Why do people with higher ranks get more upvotes… 1.8 years ago

    aight if you really want to know
    High rankers usually have more followers, that's it. With jet stream, followers can view your post regardless of where it is on the airplanes pages. This has two effects:
    1. New posts, before appearing on hottest, get a boost so they end up on hottest, and
    2. Posts continue to get more upvotes from jet stream and stay on hottest for longer.
    But that's not to say good posts from new players can't appear on page 1 of hottest, because only a few pages of planes get posted in a day.
    Also, your last build has some notable factors:
    1. It is a dark machine on a dark background. The machine's features are unclear and the image does not stand out. People are less likely to click on this kind of thumbnail. (Use the search function to find thumbnail guides)
    2. It is a successor of a well-known post by a well-known user. I can't say for everyone, but this has a negative psychological effect that makes me feel that less has been done, and hence view the post with more scrutiny. It can discourage people from upvoting even if it is very different. On your build, the original frame is visible, so it adds to this issue.
    tl;dr
    - Normal social networking site effect
    - Use a more attractive thumbnail. But keep it ethical, no clickbait
    - Use lighter plane colors if appropriate
    - Maybe don't make successors, or don't expect too much when making one

  • Automated flaps 1.8 years ago

    @Stuktherandomdude ok, i understand. Here's an easy way to make any auto control, not just flaps:
    - find flaps angle required for many different speeds
    - use a curve fitting software (e.g. microsoft office graphs) to convert your data into a smooth curve

  • Automated flaps 1.8 years ago

    If your turn radius is big at any speed, your plane either has too small wings and/or too small control surfaces

  • Throttle issue 1.8 years ago

    Open controls menu (settings --> controls)
    Check that your HOTAS is detected and supported by the game. If it is, the controller name should appear. If not, you can't use it without some computer work, and you may need to search online for help specific to your device.
    Go to the Throttle row (not increase/decrease throttle), click on the box in the controller column and follow the instructions

  • Throttle issue 1.8 years ago

    Set the throttle axis and not the increase/decrease throttle controls

  • [Solved] Funky Trees - evaluating specific values 1.9 years ago

    Try to make a feature one step at a time:

    1. Build knob with range 0 to 2. Use a variable for the knob position. In this case 0 is stop, 1 is idle/start, 2 is normal. Make sure that as the knob turns, the value changes.
    2. Optionally, you can use a setter to round the knob position value when the knob is not moving. This will provide a notching effect to your knob (I have code for this).
    3. Add a setter for each variable you want to get out of the knob position. You should use the round function in the comparison. Example setters (your variable names may be different:

      • LeftEngStop is round(LeftEngSelect)=0

      • LeftEngStartIdle is round(LeftEngSelect)=1

      • etc.

  • [Solved] Funky Trees - evaluating specific values 1.9 years ago

    No, you cannot set variables inside of an input, including label { } inputs. The = operator in FT compares two values. If LeftEngineMode is currently 1, then LeftEngineMode=1 becomes true.
    .
    If you want to convert a single numeric variable to multiple true/false variables, you must use one variable setter for each new variable. For example:
    Setter of LEngIdle is LeftEngineMode=1

    +1
  • [Solved] Funky Trees - evaluating specific values 1.9 years ago

    Currently, you can't make string variables, but you can make enumerators by choosing a set of values for your variable, like normal is 1, idle is 2, and stop is 3. You can check against each value in the ternary structure like:
    EngineMode=1 ? ... : (EngineMode=2 ? ... : ...)

  • Help on Car steering 1.9 years ago

    Yeah funky
    I use an angle = INPUT/GS curve. Try to figure out what the output is at different values of GS.
    INPUT / lerp(1,DIVISOR,inverselerp(MAX_STEER_SPEED,MIN_STEER_SPEED,GS))
    Example use:
    Roll / lerp(1,15,inverselerp(10,90,GS))

  • Is it possible to make plane stable with lift airfoils 1.9 years ago

    You can only passively balance a plane for a certain speed. Below that speed you will pitch down, above it you will pitch up. That's why trim exists

  • what is part Variable Outputs 1.9 years ago

    Every frame, it sets the value of the variable you choose. Then you can use that value by using the same variable

    4. Implement switches or volume control with funky trees

    @ChallengerHellcat probably. On most vehicles, the CoM is on or slightly above the frame level when unloaded

  • how to program a hinge rotator to automatically go to a certain position? 2.0 years ago

    You can use the transform part tool to rotate large sections of connected parts, which allows you to switch between one rotation angle for easy building and one for flying/release.
    If you really need to use a rotator for this, put a constant value into the input controller

    @ChallengerHellcat no

  • HUD box not following target 2.0 years ago

    I can't see the pic, but:
    For 2D target box:
    - Ensure the labels are aligned. Use the HUD artificial horizon or crosshairs match with your cockpit crosshairs.
    - Ensure the label scale is correct for your camera-HUD distance.
    For physical rotating target box:
    - Ensure the center of rotation is on your camera position.

  • Simple Coupé 1.9 Accelerando 2.0 years ago

    Body and animations are very nice
    Not sure if I'm doing something wrong (no control list) but engine curve feels extremely peaky, so it's impossible to drive normally. For example, you can't do a second gear start. Also, negative stability on straights.
    Finally, needs control list. Like what does UI Slider 2 do?
