@SyntheticL Chances are that traveling to the moon in such a low timeframe would increase the price of the mission exponentially, which isn’t worth it given that this is not a crewed mission
@Sadboye12 And thank you! Now of course there are no promises, but I haven’t necessarily “quit” for good. Just an indefinite hiatus from building. I may make something, sometime, though I don’t see that happening too soon
@Sadboye12 Kinda for me, though I come on the site every once in a while. I’m not really building anymore; life has gotten very interesting for me lol. Though I still lurk on the site every once in a while
@Daviationcat99 May be a physics issue - when testing this originally, everything worked as planned. Though an SP physics update, as well as your physics settings, may have something to do with that issue
@Daviationcat99 I think a lot of my earlier builds did that. If trim tabs are available, then use them. Otherwise, that issue was something that I overlooked
@Handlewithcare I’m glad to be an inspiration. With some dedication, you will be able to create your own style that you will be satisfied with. I suggest looking at some of your favorite builds from a wide variety of creators, and dissect those planes to see how each creator made them. You may discover something even more inspiring!
As some extra encouragement, I decided to upvote one of your builds. Welcome to SP!
@Handlewithcare Thank you! Detail comes with a lot of practice, and a little bit of design intent. Adding details that make the design look more believable, such as vents, panels, fans, etc definitely help.
As for the quotes, they come from many places. Sometimes conversations in my own life, or from media such as music, movies, etc.
@FuriousChicken My current job satisfies my need for engineering design, so I don’t really have any builds planned at the moment. I still browse the site every once in a while though
@TRD6932 If you subscribed, then the mod should be installed. Steam workshop uses the term "subscribe" interchangeably with "download" or "install". Sometimes steam integration with SP can be a bit odd with mods though, so the mod might not have been installed
@TRD6932 I think workshop should work, though I haven’t tried it myself. Though google has been troublesome for me so I won’t be able to have a direct .spmod upload anytime soon. Sorry!
@yellowbananabus Google drive has removed public sharing via link on my profile for now. There is a workaround, but I do not have to time to do it. Your best bet is steam workshop
@OrderlyHippo You would choose C (in both integrations) to match the aircraft’s initial conditions at time=0.
.
In other words, after your first integration, you will have an expression for velocity, plus C. C really just depends on the initial velocity, so if you plug in your initial velocity at time=0, you can solve for the correct C value.
.
When you have found C after your first integration, integrate again for position. You will get another + C. Substitute your initial position at time=0 to solve for the correct C, which will result in a correct position expression.
@OrderlyHippo In this case, the term "inertial" means that the velocity is measured by an observer that is not moving. So, "inertial" velocity is what someone on the ground would measure if they took a speed reading of the plane.
.
A navigation system that would use something like inertia (as in the physical property) would measure the acceleration of the aircraft, and integrate it twice to get a position. A good amount of guidance systems have used this principle, including some early ICBMs. I'm not sure how such a system would be implemented in SP though.

@Handlewithcare Yep! Feel free to do whatever u want description-wise
@Handlewithcare I forgot. Try experimenting to see what you like best!

@AriVex Thanks! Most notably the vehicle has been edited to have a very low mass, which accounts for a lot of its flight characteristics

@LobsterBisque128 Nothing is planned at the moment. My life seems to be too busy for SP
+2@CaptainXMLRenzo Ty! Yep, the performance is weird with low physics iirc
multiply the input by -1 in funky trees. i.e., -1*pitch
+1@Grob0s0VBRa Ah, that was probably a while ago then!
+1Looks great! I forgot what codes I provided but thanks for the credit

Make a funny plane covered in airbrakes

+1@BaconAircraft Or the most important question:
+4Not to be political, but wtf is a casserole?
+13All of those guided weapons should be possible to make with what we have right now. Just a slightly higher part count I guess
@LobsterBisque128 I didn’t know that, thanks for letting me know!
@LobsterBisque128 Go for it!
@InternationalAircraftCompany Lmao ty
@LobsterBisque128 loaded weight
society
@CaptainXMLRenzo Thanks!
@TylerThomason2 Not sure how to do that then, maybe a similar method can be used for cannons with the same name
+1Yes
