If SimplePlanes 2 is on the way, it needs two things. An iCloud-style system of syncing your aircraft across all your devices. Simply sign in to SP and they’ll appear right away! (aircraft with mods may not appear on mobile) and electric motors, propellers and floodlights similar to the ones in Juno.
I was screwing around with a helicopter with a ridiculously powerful XML modded bomb anttac and when the bomb exploded, I got the popup message ‘Ye have defeated the Brown Pearl!’
@GorillaGuerrilla I just realised that turning off low power mode greatly increases performance at the cost of battery life and the phone getting warmer.
@GorillaGuerrilla As long as the lower part count (800 or less) doesn’t compromise the cockpit detail such as a HUD, joysticks, buttons, instrumentation, etc…
I know that on a computer, transferring the craft/subassembly files via USB or wireless to a new computer is possible, but it would be much faster and more convenient if you could just sign in with your account on the new device and let the syncing do the work.
And you may be wondering about mods and stuff. Maybe only sync crafts without mods until mod support for mobile gets a reboot? Then start working on syncing mods?
@TheFlightGuySP On it, when Activate1 is pressed, the barrels start spinning. The only time I want them spinning is when FireGuns is pressed. When I disable that rear rotators input, the barrels keep spinning regardless of the status of Activate1 or FireGuns.
@TheFlightGuySP it’s the two rotators. The rear one is the one I don’t want spinning the barrels when I disable the input, which is Activate1. Here it is: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/3C92Vo/Need-help
@TheFlightGuySP I want to eliminate the Activate1 input expression on the rotator that eliminates the torque but when I do, the barrels just keep spinning.
@TheFlightGuySP Nvm I managed to do it, thanks to this: https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/zqmZK7/STOP-ABLE-Infinity-RotatorGood-for-gatling-cannons-Radar-and-tracks-builds
@TheFlightGuySP If i was to use your torqueless electric propeller engine to spin the barrels of my minigun, how would I do it? When I change sum(Throttle10000)/180 to sum(FireGuns10000)/180, the barrels just keep spinning regardless of the FireGuns button being pressed. What input expression should I use instead? (One that does not spin the barrels backwards!)
@TheFlightGuySP I want to make a realistic minigun with spinning barrels. When I let go of the fire button, the rotator just spins back to its original position and creates a lot of torque in the opposite direction. How did u make the rotator into an electric motor?
The craft is obviously not as indestructible as the original droplet due to having the shell removed. Keep this in mind if doing dogfights or spawning as an aggressive AI
@Mal0ne Also your MD-11 engine set has an error where the intake fan doesn’t run true as it isn’t parallel with the shaft. Both engines have this issue.
@Mal0ne Could you make a Kuznetsov NK-93 ducted propfan, an NK-12 turboprop, a Progress D-27 propfan and a Europrop TP400? And include the engine pylon so they can be mounted onto anything? Doesn’t matter what order each one is made, just as long as they’re made accurately lol.
When the ‘lifetime’ value of an XML modded gun is over a certain value, it crashes the game. Value can vary depending on part count of aircraft it’s in. Happens on iOS only.
@0ut16w it’s just a simple copy and paste the instructions into the aircraft! So many ppl are not benefiting from the fact that you can simply look up the instructions while flying aircraft.
@ToeTips HUD doesn’t work. The attitude indicator and artificial horizon are missing and there is a jumble of characters in the centre of the HUD which don’t move. Is this intentional?
RIP anyone’s phone or pc who downloads this
+3What I want in SP2 is electric motors and electric lights like those found in J:NO.

+2lol u forgot the bass guitar! what’s it worth if a band doesn’t have a bass guitar lmao
+2Somehow my iPhone 14 pro managed to spawn these but it was very very laggy
+1And not just aircraft, but all your precious subassemblies also need iClouding!
+1SR2 or now as it’s called, Juno, is good but i luv SP’s simplicity and abundance of Easter eggs (kraken, brown pearl, etc) and existence of weapons.
+1No HUD. You are seriously lacking here….

+1@TheFlightGuySP what speed and range of motion should the rotator be set to?
+1@TheFlightGuySP what value should sum( ) be?
+1@TheFlightGuySP But how do I prevent the rotator from spinning backwards after the FireGuns/Weapons button is released?

+1HUD doesn’t work. All the elements are bunched up in the centre. In fact, one of the image shows the HUD and it’s elements like that.
+1@AnderWorks i believe the original cockpit from the ‘1 parts hud’ must be used otherwise it won’t work or the variables are wrong….
+1@AnderWorks it doesn’t show the attitude indicator and everything is clumped in the centre
+1HUD doesn’t work
+1@SheriffHackdogMCPE it’s 81.25C you missed the decimal point
+111269 parts i can’t lol
+1The craft is obviously not as indestructible as the original droplet due to having the shell removed. Keep this in mind if doing dogfights or spawning as an aggressive AI
+1@Mal0ne oh and one more thing could u make the GE TF39 engine? It’s the one with the inner and outer intake fan design.
@Mal0ne Publish each one individually so those with weaker systems can download them.
@Mal0ne As long as they look as realistic as possible, part count doesn’t matter. Also the order in which u publish them doesn’t matter either.
@Mal0ne In other words, your MD-11 engine set intake fan lacks longitudinal stability.
@Mal0ne Also your MD-11 engine set has an error where the intake fan doesn’t run true as it isn’t parallel with the shaft. Both engines have this issue.

The fan spins backwards!

Too lazy to add instructions, huh?
why does it crash the game when loaded into the world or spawned in as an ai
Now I have a nice gadget to defeat the brown pearl with :D
And yes, the xml bomb destroyed my heli and completely broke the game,. It didn’t crash but it did break :D
I was just off wright airport over the water with my heli and bomb when they exploded and the message appeared :D
@ToeTips HUD doesn’t work. The attitude indicator and artificial horizon are missing and there is a jumble of characters in the centre of the HUD which don’t move. Is this intentional?
@ToeTips Why does the HUD have ‘Error: Undefined HUDDistance’?
@ToeTips Did u put any effort in making the HUD functional?
Why is the HUD so broken?
@Otana why do ur new crafts keep saying ‘The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable’
@FirstFish83828 Original poster doesn’t seem to notice the HUD is broken
