Oi mate I made a WWII-style torpedo plane for this challenge too if you need any guidance. You can modify my torpedo if you want
@FatNinja That's something to think about when building a torpedo! :D
You could put a detacher on the top and build something with a fuselage, cockpit and wings on it. It doesn't need take-off and landing capabilities, I'm going to start it in the air anyways.
Main cockpit has to be on the testbase for aiming and because I noticed that user-built weapons greatly change behaviour depending on whether it is placed on the weapon itself or the carrier of it, which would make comparison between different designs impossible. :)
@BRuthless now how am i suppose to strap this to a plane?
@FatNinja sorry
Very nice design, but it has a problem.
"How to enter:
Download the challenge, remove the sign, create a torpedo design and put it on the belly of the included testbase (with a detacher). Upload it when you are done with testing and optimization. (Designs that are no successors won't enter the challenge)
You are allowed to modify the testbase or create your own one (won't add to the rating).
Multiple entries are allowed (please remove old versions if you only add an updated version)."
This one doesn't include a testbase, so there's no way of carrying it to the ships for testing, excluding it from the challenge.
@Dosbrostacos it is
very honorable
Dumb way to die
