I'm gonna a be honest, I think the number of actual girls I've seen here for the entire time I've been here is no higher than 15.
In fact, I've seen almost as many trans people here as girls. That's saying something.
The best part of the SP designer is that the nudge increment and the part adjustment increment are completely unlinked, and the minimum nudge increment is 0.1 of a millimetre, so placing things precisely and adjusting the length of things is really quick and easy. Also you can do multiple things at the same time without having to go into the settings, like you can rotate things and nudge things at exactly the same time. Also the hot keys to rotate things always rotates it by 90 degrees, so if you want things adjusted quickly before placing them on your plane, that can be done without excessive clicking or having parts being unexpectedly rotated. Also if you want stuff done in more precision, there's one single menu where you can nudge and rotate things and adjust their increments, and it's super easy to use.

The main complaint of the SP designer is that placing parts on your plane can be a pain in the butt as parts never seem to want to go where you want, and when you place them, they attach to everything. But the thing that causes this, in my opinion, is a thing that's extremely useful if you make more detailed builds: parts have have unlimited connections to other parts. This can be super useful if you're building extremely detailed, small things like custom logos and gauge clusters and cockpits, where some parts need to be connected to like 50 other parts at once. The game also has a connection editor so controlling the connections around mechanisms is a breeze
@Lightningtreesavoralt I f*** hate building gauges. It may not look like it, but as much as a third of the time it takes to build a plane is actually just making the gauges. The reason why a lot of my latest builds have taken so long to be released is when I get up to building the gauges, I die inside because they take so much work for very minimal visual progress, and I start procrastinating. This update is honestly one of the best things that's happened to this game.
You need more points than the person you're spotlighting to be able to spotlight their craft, and you happen to not have many points and therefore way more people have the ability to spotlight your build
Instead of just having the AI modes as normal and aggressive, there should be more modes such as formation, aerobatics, follow me & match speed, air to ground target, run away, etc.
It’d be way more fun and the formation and follow modes would be amazing for screenshots and vids
Please add something like Designer Suite into the default game. Especially the part connections editor and the ability for other cam and the ability to put pictures in the background of the designer that show up when you look in a certain view... oh that’s everything lol.
SP certainly needs this though.
What I think though is that there should be more restrictions about the “off topic” tag. People tend to use it as though they can just post anything they like with it, like what they had for dinner. Here’s what I think:
The post must have some importance that it’s worth the community knowing about
If it doesn’t relate to the first rule, it must be aviation/vehicle related, or cool stuff related (such as Sea Sprite not landing in my school field XD)
Is the map outsources and made professionally or made by you guys?
Is it possible to fully adjust the posture of the playable charicter... dude... guy?
Are the old SP parts going to be updated and modernised, like making gauges more customisable, making it possible to adjust the number of polygons fuselage blocks have, improving the adjustability of wheels etc?
Are the buttons and menus in the designer going to be updated to make it more ergonomic?
Are you going to scrap funky trees and replace it with a more sensible coding language?
Flyout makes building complex-shaped aircraft WAY quicker and simpler, but it has a few drawbacks:
You can't change the number of polygons fuselages have, so if you want a flat side with a square corner, you have to perfectly line up all the nodes, which don't have a typable number for their locations (you have to locate them all by eye)
Rotators are very simple, which make building complex mechanisms like realistic suspension a lot harder than in SP
Tbh, the designer camera controls are annoying
Tbh, although SP is a pain in the ass to build with and stuff takes an eternity to make, the physics side of it and the ability to add significantly more detail to your builds is why I still play this instead of flyout.
@ColonelCanada We were too lazy and were fired lol
Well, the devs were doing 99% of the curating for months and we stood ourselves down.
Planes are still getting curated by the devs now
The worlds can be one together
Cosmos without hatred
Stars like diamonds in your eyes
The ground can be space (space, space, space, space)
With feet marching towards a peaceful sky
All the Moonmen want things their way
But we make sure they see the sun
Goodbye, Moonmen
We say goodbye, Moonmen
Goodbye, Moonmen
Goodbye, Moonmen
Oh, goodbye
Cosmos without hatred
Diamond stars of cosmic light
Quasars shine through endless nights
And everything is one in the beauty
And now we say goodbye, Moonmen
We say goodbye, Moonmen
Goodbye, Moonmen
Goodbye, Moonmen
Oh, goodbye
Shut the f^^^ up about Moonmen!

+9The F-4 Phantom has become the new P-51 of the SP website
+9This is the most revolutionary update in SP history I'm telling ya

+9In fact, I've seen almost as many trans people here as girls. That's saying something.
Ngl it would be nice of these pinned forums were visually separate from normal forums, like, if they had a blue tinted background or something
+9That's actually a really cool idea!
+9Can you make this part floppy so you can use it like a ball joint in suspension?
+9Or are you gonna add proper ball joints?

I think the ability to also have a cut on the side and the bottom will be really useful too

+9@TheSolarFlare I think the USS tiny should be updated, but I think it should stay the same size. It's small size is a part of what makes it fun :)
+9Question, are you adding semi hollow fuselages aswell? Because if you are, then SimplePlanes is pretty much everything I have ever dreamed of. :D
+9I hope this is what cars look like in the future
+9No. One level up:
+9The ability to see who other people have blocked
I generally make it so you can't see the glass from the inside because the reflections don't reflect the craft
+9You need more points than the person you're spotlighting to be able to spotlight their craft, and you happen to not have many points and therefore way more people have the ability to spotlight your build
+9That is my gender on instagram
+9Still no semi hollow fuselage blocks 😭
+9💯
+9Shhhh shhhhh
+9this doesn’t need to go on any longer
Subscriptions are the bane of existence.
+9We don’t cancel culture here.
+9You’d be surprised how many people do this.
+9Massive over reaction ngl
+9W8 you hadn’t discovered Snowstone yet?
+9OH MY GOD
+9100% FUNCTIONAL COCKPITS
THIS IS ENORMOUSLY AMAZING FIR ME!!!! 😃😃😃😃

+9SP certainly needs this though.
On mobile you have two hands and you can see 3 across.
+9Well I guess y’all know what I look like now lol.
+9Tbh I think the map we have at the moment is incomplete and boring. It would be really nice if we have a huge map update in 1.8 @Hayhayjam664
+9This meme will be worse than the worms in the fact that it will actually drive people away from SP.

That don’t just have a rectangle shape as their airfoil.
