Planes will retract its gear once spawned, as long as it has a retractable one.
unarmed builds will run away even if set as aggressive. This could include armed planes whose weapons has to be activated.
@FlyingHueman Well you DID lose some points for that engine placement.
In fact most of the entries are more or less not following the original rule.
I thought that this may happen so that's why I had the "reserved" points to prevent having to disqualify everyone...
And that preventive measure worked.
@SnoWFLakE0s Actually, they do.
clamp(sin(PitchAngle-AngleOfAttack)*GS/600, -1, 1)
(this is a formula for cabin vertical speed)
has the exact same effect with or without the space before and after the -, * and /.
Even omitting the space behind the comma doesn't affect the result.
PitchAngle - The pitch of the aircraft (degrees) (0~360)
RollAngle - The roll of the aircraft (degrees) (0~360)
Heading - The heading of the aircraft (degrees) (0~360)
Actually I think they are -180~+180 instead of 0-360.
If you make a compass and turn your plan through south, your compass will abruptly turn all the wrong way until it found your correct heading (i.e. it will not turn through 180 degrees.
Same for roll angle.
@pancelvonat I mean for one instance I thought I remembered it wrong as in that M52's wingtips were NOT cut.
In reality it WAS cut, but they ALSO rounded it.
What do you mean "end"? Did I offend you? I didn't.
@pancelvonat I know Model 32 is square, I remembered that M5X was also square but I think I've mistaken. They are removable but not square when wingtips are on.
Suggestion: remove the wingtip.
A6M5 is Zero fighter Model 5X series (usually Model 52) which features square wings (they removed the foldable wingtip from the earlier A6M2
@Zanedavid Yes I would guess so as well. Some sources claim that KX-03 would be nicknamed "Choukai Yama" which is against all naming regulations in the IJN.
@TrislandianAlliance You know, in earlier racing games before the term "drifting" came in from Japanese, "drifting" was referred to as "powerslide" exactly.
@Zanedavid I can't find japanese data about the KX-03, there are even some Japanese blog posts stating that they only heard about the KX-03 from non-Japanese sources.
The H11K, on the other hand, at least had a wooden full size model.

@ChiChiWerx Well I kept the pitch mostly because I don't have much choice, I need the throttles to be fully reversible so that I can reverse my way out of the beach once the landing operation is complete.
I could've made a constant-speed propeller setup like my Ki-93, but that won't help much because the VTOL control is still occupied.
@Noname918181 Yeah and if you see my other works, one ROC (Chinese nationalist; Taiwan) roundel is 15 parts. One Communist Chinese roundel would be about 11.
@thefalkenreich @Noname918181
Noname is right, the real thing never had a turret. You can see plans about an armed version of H11K but none are official (mostly fiction by foreign historians)
Plus, this thing has a 5 man crew, 2 pilots, one flight engineer, one loadmaster, one loader, there's no room for gunner.
Also I have already expanded all the activation groups even without a single turret.
AG1: Bow door, releases vehicle #1 after 5 seconds
AG2: Fowler flap extend
AG3: Fowler flap rotate
AG4: Left engine engage
AG5: Right engine engage (for turning on water)
AG6: #2 vehicle release and engine on
AG7: #3 vehicle release and engine on
AG8: #1 vehicle engine on (released by AG1 with delay because AG8 is default on)
VTOL has to work both as propeller pitch and vehicle throttle
Trim is landing ramp.
You can see that I'm already pretty tight on the activation groups...
@FlyingThings Yeah you probably have to make the three fuselages more similar to be considered "identical and repeating".
It's fine, many of the entries actually don't qualify as well, I think I'll just use the backup plan and reflect that on the "reserved" 20 points instead of simply disqualifying them.
In a challenge, fun comes first, then competition.
@AircraftoftheRedStar If fictional is okay I think it'll be weird to ban paper projects...
I plan on making a blueprint aircraft (with scaled model/wooden mockup only), too...
@ThePrototype The plane is already out, though it's not really Me 163 cockpit... it's more like an original cockpit made to fit the needs and possibilities in SP
@Mustang51 I tried to make it look more like the real Ha-214 engine but that would make the cylinders (rotaters) almost invisible... In the end I chose to show off the cylinders over recreating the looks of Ha-214, lol.
@Mustang51 Uhh the engine IS actually customized... kind of.
Each engine consist of 12 cosmetic cylinders, 12 cowl flaps and 12 cowl flap rotaters. The actual engine is on the front.
The cowl flaps are programmed to automatically close when the speed reaches 200mph.
Planes will retract its gear once spawned, as long as it has a retractable one.

@FuzzyAircraftProductions the result is already posted in 15 December
The thread is here
@CruzerBlade It IS clear. Search function, not target marking.
Plus, air-to-air mode is turned on by default in dogfight.

Ah yes I believe we have one of those here in Taiwan, they are stationed in Kinmen.
I live in UTC+8 and it's already 9AM, 15 December 2019 here.
@CrashFighter05 I said 12/15 00:00 UTC, which is one hour ago.
@SnoWFLakE0s I have examples like GS work without space but IAS doesn't.... weird.
@CoolPeach So perhaps it's the matter of exactly which function you're using...
@SnoWFLakE0s Actually, they do.
clamp(sin(PitchAngle-AngleOfAttack)*GS/600, -1, 1)
(this is a formula for cabin vertical speed)
has the exact same effect with or without the space before and after the -, * and /.
Even omitting the space behind the comma doesn't affect the result.
Also, I've been using "RollAngle/180" without spaces, no problem at all...
Actually I think they are -180~+180 instead of 0-360.
If you make a compass and turn your plan through south, your compass will abruptly turn all the wrong way until it found your correct heading (i.e. it will not turn through 180 degrees.
Same for roll angle.
@CrashFighter05 Oh yeah, I forgot you don't need to clamp the fuel function.
@CrashFighter05 Does the input match what I said? if not I have to correct it.
Well, if I made my Ki-93 one month later I could've mounted this onto it and obliterate everything ...
@pancelvonat Oh, okay. It's fine as long as the misunderstanding is solved.
Your English is good, except of course that particular usage of "end".
@pancelvonat I mean for one instance I thought I remembered it wrong as in that M52's wingtips were NOT cut.
In reality it WAS cut, but they ALSO rounded it.
What do you mean "end"? Did I offend you? I didn't.
@pancelvonat Ah so I did remember the right thing, M52 do have wingtips cut, but they also rounded it, not just leaving it straight.
@pancelvonat I know Model 32 is square, I remembered that M5X was also square but I think I've mistaken. They are removable but not square when wingtips are on.
Suggestion: remove the wingtip.
A6M5 is Zero fighter Model 5X series (usually Model 52) which features square wings (they removed the foldable wingtip from the earlier A6M2
@klm747klm747 Don't mind, my most upvoted post is my slowest, biggest and weakest (being unarmed) aircraft.
Yes this is legit
@Zanedavid Yes I would guess so as well. Some sources claim that KX-03 would be nicknamed "Choukai Yama" which is against all naming regulations in the IJN.
@TrislandianAlliance You know, in earlier racing games before the term "drifting" came in from Japanese, "drifting" was referred to as "powerslide" exactly.
I just drifted a 47-ton flying boat with no trouble yesterday (all you need is to turn off engine on one side)
@Zanedavid I can't find japanese data about the KX-03, there are even some Japanese blog posts stating that they only heard about the KX-03 from non-Japanese sources.

@Noname918181 Yeah and if you see my other works, one ROC (Chinese nationalist; Taiwan) roundel is 15 parts. One Communist Chinese roundel would be about 11.
Japanese roundel is really the easiest roundel...
@Nerfenthusiast I will, but the Japanese roundel is literally just two circles.
