@PZLAerospacesAgency This aircraft has gotten so much attention, comments and upvotes because it was revolutionary for its time. This aircraft was built way before the new conveniences of fuselage slicing and hollow fuselages - those were only added during more recent updates. This means that this plane was built through PANELING the cockpit, rather than sliced, hollow fuselages. At one point, it may have even been the only aircraft in the entire simpleplanes game to have an interior. It is obvious a lot of hardwork and pain went into making this, but the end result inspired other builders, as well as the developers to add new features, paving the way for all simpleplanes aircraft cockpits to come. You have to agree now, he deserves the upvotes?
Also I have respect for this build everyone is like "Why is this the highest upvote build" and to which I say because this was a masterpiece at its time when there was only paneling no Hollow fuselage or fuselage slicing, mods, or interior parts. Now that making a VR planes is a piece of cake people look at this like a dump pile but the reality is this is when you could just build and not have to add 900 parts + Shaders + Gifs + Wiki to get a good Upvote count.
@MobileBuilder21 Thanks for explaining it, I was wondering why as well

Its amazing how many high quality builds you made so fast. Really well done. I hope we can match it now that I asked my allies to make more quality to keep it fair.
@BaconEggs This is absolutely amazing! Exactly what SP has needed to bring life back into it!
I have one suggestion for the ultimate mod.
Add an interisland train track system, and merge this mod with this by @UnstableOrbit for the interstate highway system. I believe such a mod would be the largest map improvement available, truly transforming the SP game world.
Keep stuff for updates. There are tonnes of awesome ideas, and if you let me I could rattle on and on, giving you an endless list of my and the rest of the communities' ideas. Just take note and plan it for the future; dont overload and release one big massive game. Maybe even paid DLCs for big updates. I'd like for you not to, but in the end you need to make money to keep going. As you said a while ago, "We do care about your feedback, but we also care about your money. Mostly the money.". By the way, that was a really funny conversation on that post!
Just my personal opinion, I would prefer you didn't have block coding like from Juno. Its great and all, but it just didn't feel very SimplePlanes-like. Strangely, it ruined the simple feeling. If people really want it or you have already started work on it, maybe add a settings option from classic/block code. I kinda liked the workarounds people snuck in with coding, doing all that extra stuff thats not possible without.
Another comment from Juno. That game felt too..... blue. It felt like the entire world had a blue filter over it. The game world was dark, blue, and foggy. Thats the main reason I reverted back to SP and left Juno. Please keep the world bright, colourful, and inviting like in SP 1.
An idea for an update, add customisable sounds. The ability to change engine sounds, upload new sounds, and specifically a new 'sound block'. A part where you can add to your build and upload a sound file. This would dramatically change things. You could have simulated warnings when certain conditions are met, dedicated people may even be able to implement simplistic air traffic control conversations.
Great job developing such creative, inspiring and masterful games! Keep it up!
P.S. I nearly fell of my chair when I saw SP, although my first reaction was to check the date that it was not April 1st. You have quite the reputation for April fools jokes! But really, great job!
@MrSilverWolf I dont want to drag this out and cause you more trouble. How about I reduce my list to only the ones I know will definitely want it, Down from 29 to 13 people. And be a bit more sparing with my use of it. I will tag people only on quality aircraft posts and perhaps some important announcements.
@Monarchii @LunarEclipseSP Hey! C'mon, lets not end the war on a bad note. Same time next month? xD Nah just kidding but I do hope we can something similar again later.
@MonarchiiwithastolenMG @FOXHOUND26 @Mousewithamachinegun122 Seriously? Can some people just not understand 'realism'? I accept your resignation Monarchii, I am also tired of the ridiculousness of it sometimes. It wasn't really the machine guns for me, it was the story line, the involvement and action, and most importantly the inspiration to build newer and better creations. When people disrespect the core principle of realism, it cannot function anymore. The Monarchii War is officially over. Also, I am happy if you wish to keep your current name. Personally, I quite like it, but it is entirely up to you. I hope that now post-war we can keep this team that we have created as like building partners, helping each other with creations, giving ideas and tips, even though the war is over.
@MonarchiiwithastolenMG @LunarEclipseSP @SamuelJamesCastor I would like to clarify, 'Breaking the rules of War' in the threats were only meant to say that up until now, we have done our best to avoid conflict. If this was left un attended, we would end this ideology and turn to more destructive tactics. It was meant not in a literal sense but as an emphasis on the level of measures we will take for justice.
@Mousewithamachinegun122 @LunarEclipseSP @MonarchiiwithastolenMG People seem to be getting edgy so we can start maybe at the end of this week (Friday) or earlier if I can finish my classified creations.
@SamuelJamesCastor @LunarEclipseSP @MonarchiiwithastolenMG Please remember this is a temporary treaty (until further notice) so keep some on patrol and standby
@Boeing727200Fwithapistol I dont see how it would be avoided? If a propeller running at thousands of revolutions per minute comes in contact with the ground, the plane is destroyed. Isn't that actually realistic?
@MrSilverWolf Those people are on my autotag list. Previously saying they wish to be tagged on everything I post. Others, well, they did not explicitly say it, but we know each other so well they may as well be on it. I will willingly take whoever doesn't want to off, such as maybe noname below, but other than that, I really don't see the harm? Jet stream is not really used much to be of enough use. I find myself scrolling through it, but not paying much attention. I quite prefer the tags personally
@TheUltimatePlaneLover Also, how large scale are we talking? I'm gearing for a full-blown WW2 scale! Currently my troops are training and organising. A little sneak peak:
High command
(Theatre Command) Western Theatre Command
(Corps) 1st Western Expeditionary Corps
(Division) 1st Western Infantry Division
(Brigade) 1st Assault Brigade
(Battalion) 1st Assault Battalion
(Company) 1st Infantry Company
(Platoon) 1st Rifle Platoon
(Platoon) 2nd Rifle Platoon
(Platoon) 3rd Rifle Platoon
(Platoon) 4th Specialized Weapons Platoon
From top to bottom, decending in hierarchy
More info under the subheadings to come. The Western Theatre Command is mobilising from Maywar and the Northern Theatre Command is mobilising from Yeager.

I am very concerned. SNC continues to subtly deny any recognition of the MGLA, and releases heavily biased and untruthful statemens. First, the constant labelling of the MGLA as terrorist by all Monarchii allies. This was partially resolved by Monarchii and LunarEclipseSP agreeing to release statements acknowledging us, and subsequently did. SNC refused to respond and ignored our request, despite obviously having seen the message as they responded to a message from that same thread just after, relating to a different topic. In the SNC statement of exchanging flowers to symbolise Eternal Peace Treaty, not only was the statement inaccurate as it was clearly only temporary, but only the WAEC was mentioned. The WAEC is merely one party in the MGLA, and did not sign the treaty. They are part of it by extention as an MGLA member. Now, even more untruths and outright lies as Peace is not 'High Treason' for us. We drafted and enacted the treaty. Peace. We removed non-realistic weapons. Fairness. We discussed the closure of the treaty with all parties and sides. Notification and discussion. We agreed on a time when we were all prepared. More fairness. And the thanks we get? Non-recognition, untruthful statements about us and accusations of high treason and war-crimes.
@MonarchiiwithastolenMG Great! Thanks for this. Right now we have a Gladiator Flagship (though its status may be replaced in the future) and assault dinghies. I plan to make a hunter submarine for mass production, as well as a specific secret, revolutionary project. I will try and make some of the other ships mentioned.
@LunarEclipseSP @MonarchiiwithastolenMG This really amazing work on your part. Frankly, I am baffled. The MGLA will have to come up with something ingenious to combat this!
@MonarchiiwithastolenMG
@LunarEclipseSP
@SamuelJamesCastor
I request to remove the clause stopping the development of weapons. My side needs to make proper weapons as now all our unrealistic ones are rules out, leaving select few workable weapons.
@WNP78 Being the funky tree master, is there any way we can get a variable for whether the player is locked by the enemy or not? It would be amazing to have it for modern aircraft radars, or maybe even automatic flare lanchers!
@jamesPLANESii It may seem easy from what I described in the post but that is just to make the SP model. Being the first user of the mod, I found and had to report many bugs and issues back to the creator, as well as constantly asking for instructiosn. First I downloaded Python, then he say needed pycharm, still dont work. Then he upload the file as .exe instead of .py, then incorrect file path, then finally file permissions denied. After ALL that you get the seemingly easy to make final product - this. Whole process: TEN DAYS!
@RepublicOfCursedPlanes Thx for sharing that - I think its fine then, its not misleading, obviously not the real deal. The real photos are included as well. I hope I stay safe!
@windshifter1 thank you so much. Lol. Yes, I love to make people smile
@WinsWings Thats good, I like SP users that have heart, dont just post airplanes for their greed for upvotes and points, but to put a smile on their faces and have a good laugh!
Wow, @Leehopard, the inspiration for this challenge, the one who's airplane I used for the cover image and linked to in the description, has spotlighted and upvoted my challenge!
Very helpful guide, but there is one error. To access the name of the selected weapon, the code is {SelectedWeapon}, not {SelectedWeaponName} as mentioned in the Inputs section.
@TheMouse Its moving. I have plans to model the engine, and then have a full walkaround of the exterior. So players can do a their pre-flight exterior checks.
@MrSilverWolf Lol upvote begging, if it was really about that, you think I would have used a forum post? I'm not gonna hold my breath waiting for platinum on 2 points an upvote!
@MrSilverWolf Reports in general, or on mine specifically? Because if its on mine, then they should have told me directly! I would have willingly taken them off. Its quite subjective, some people like it, others dont.
@MrSilverWolf I understand being a mod must be hard, but I think this is a bit of overkill. And to remove the comments with my tags below, what good does that do? The people have already been tagged...
