Ahha! so attempt with sphere first, disc if all else fails, got it! Thanks Consty :D
Const  [author] Apr 5 @ 10:27pm 
disc have better collisions for folding gear, but absolutely horrible traction and wheel performance on voxels/grids

sphere colliders act more like vanilla wheels, smooth on ground and grids
kennet0508 Apr 5 @ 10:05am 
I cant see any info in the description an this probably has been asked before, but whats the preferred option for Aircraft landing suspension, disc or sphere collision? and why are there two options?

Sure, I looked inside ofc, hoping to see all the secrets. ;P
Const  [author] Feb 17 @ 10:35pm 
definitely not, but it's harmless. it's just the packed version of some sbcs provided for me by someone else
Unruly Feb 17 @ 11:19am 
"slimshady.zip" left in the \data directory of distro, is that on purpose?
Const  [author] Jan 30 @ 11:40pm 
nope
Const  [author] Jan 24 @ 11:48pm 
again, they need to BREATHE

putting them in a sealed compartment is the exact opposite of that

put air paths where needed, just let it breathe

they need to be connected to the conveyor system where the thruster is as well
rogus von burgen Jan 24 @ 8:28pm 
Then where exactly am I supposed to put the intakes? I put them inside the plane, set them to depressurize. Doesn't work, even though the room is pressurized. I put them outside the plane, still doesn't work even with the depressurized option on. How exactly do these work??
Const  [author] Jan 11 @ 1:14am 
the intakes need to breathe external air, not pressurized rooms
rogus von burgen Jan 9 @ 3:28pm 
I am using the jet intakes. I have put them into an area with plenty of room pressure for it to use and no matter what I do, even if I add the hydrogen tanks in your mod and set some to stockpile and some to not, the jet thrusters still don't work no matter how many intakes I use. No matter what I do, I cannot find any way of getting them to work.
Const  [author] Jan 8 @ 7:27pm 
use the jet intakes
rogus von burgen Jan 8 @ 6:48pm 
Pretty good mod but for some reason the jet engines require a ridiculous amount of oxygen that I thus cannot make operable in small jets. Is it possible for a version of the jet thrusters that doesn't require oxygen?
Const  [author] Dec 29, 2024 @ 4:46am 
you also need to seal the block area above the sideplates. the canopies only occupy one block space, not the sides
silentnuke Dec 29, 2024 @ 2:31am 
Hey Consty, not sure if this is intentional but I've noticed the canopy side plates cannot be used to make an airtight cockpit. In particular, the standard canopy side plate and the sound block variant produce air leaks in the cockpit. Can you update these?
Sheo Dec 25, 2024 @ 10:59pm 
Though I now have a question, is there some way to turn down the sound of the hydrogen engines, because they are deafeningly loud?
Sheo Dec 25, 2024 @ 10:50pm 
Figured out the problem, apparently I needed to stick this mod at the top of the modlist for it to work, because as soon as I did that, it worked.
Sheo Dec 25, 2024 @ 6:36pm 
I noticed I'm now trying to figure out which mod is the problem.
Const  [author] Dec 25, 2024 @ 6:32pm 
any mod that modifies Oxygen's GasProperties will mess with it
Sheo Dec 25, 2024 @ 6:30pm 
And yes they have intakes connected, the intakes are set to depressurize, as far as can be gleamed by the block descriptions is all that needs doing, doesn't provide enough o2 for the jets to work, if there's something I'm missing, then it certainly isn't in the block descriptions, as far as I'm aware I don't have any mods that mess with how gas works.

Note: While typing this I tested in world that only had this mod and the thrusters worked meaning there's a conflict somewhere, now the question is what is the conflict
Sheo Dec 25, 2024 @ 6:04pm 
After doing a bit of testing it seems that the jet engines take so much oxygen that they never turn on because there is no way to provide that much o2, hell, they don't even need to be conveyored to the same system as any o2 tanks and they'll be drained in seconds, thus making the jet engines useless as there's no way to get any thrust power out of them, and no turning the engines off doesn't prevent them eating any and all oxygen on the craft either so the can't be used for decor.
Const  [author] Dec 4, 2024 @ 10:38pm 
these are digi wings
dRuPpI Dec 4, 2024 @ 8:42pm 
are these use some Aerodynemics like Digis Wing Logic or are they just decorativ blocks?
silentnuke Nov 28, 2024 @ 6:03pm 
Hey Consty, reposting this here in case it was missed in the bug report section. I realized that only the small jet engine fails to play the idle engine spooling sounds. The medium sized variant works fine.

Digging deeper into the mod files, I found an issue in CAPJetHydrogenEngine.sbc

The issue is with the following line:

<SilenceableByShipSoundSystem>true</SilenceableByShipSoundSystem>

Removing that line completely eliminated the bug with small jet engines. I also noticed that this string was not present in the defnitions for the medium jet engine, which explained why those were still playing the sound correctly.

Any chance you can push out an update of the mod including this correction?
Const  [author] Nov 26, 2024 @ 2:10am 
check and ask in the modding section of keen discord. https://discord.com/invite/keenswh

const. any chance on the source file for 1 propeller. im trying to learn how to animate in blender and cant figure it out. Cant even locate a good video to help me.
RustyOsprey2 Oct 15, 2024 @ 12:29am 
New update seem to have broken the control surfaces
MrMurku Oct 14, 2024 @ 12:24am 
Is this compatible with the aerodynamics mod?
Enomotia Sep 30, 2024 @ 5:12pm 
I'm not sure if it's just my mods/settings but the 25/30ton helicopter rotors seem to have a few problems. The 25 ton can actually lift around 27 (metric) tons. But the 30 ton 6 bladed rotor can't seem to lift 30. Any thoughts?
Katyusha Sep 24, 2024 @ 8:37am 
ohhh
I miss this
will they return in future
it was really nice
Const  [author] Sep 22, 2024 @ 6:08am 
disabled due to critical crash errors with the mod
Katyusha Sep 22, 2024 @ 6:02am 
what happened with search radar?
Const  [author] Sep 21, 2024 @ 12:07am 
thrust values are as is for my purposes in mind.

if you want a rebalanced version, feel free to reupload with a link back to this page, and credits in description
RustyOsprey2 Sep 20, 2024 @ 10:50pm 
Would it be possible to buff the helicopter rotors, currently they are way too weak to be able to handle any sort of cargo capacity.
Const  [author] Aug 18, 2024 @ 7:55pm 
no
endlesstonks Aug 18, 2024 @ 1:02pm 
Can you post a version of this without the wing blocks, the blocks in this pack are very nice for self made cockpits but the server I was planning on suggesting it to already has Takeshi's wing mod, have a good day!
Const  [author] May 29, 2024 @ 8:56am 
are you using the wing blocks? only those have lift
MEGASPARK May 28, 2024 @ 9:45pm 
im not getting any lift do i need the aerodynamics mod
ROGUE CLAN LEADER May 23, 2024 @ 5:32pm 
anyone know why if i put a jet engine on it just drains the 02 fast asf and jet never turns on and even when its off the o2 drains fast asf
Sazabii May 17, 2024 @ 12:21pm 
I've fixed it. I've spend literally half of a day fixing it and the solution came upon me completely random. The problem was a miniature projection of my ship on a console block. I don't know if thats a known error with your mod.
Const  [author] May 17, 2024 @ 11:57am 
post log in bug reports
Sazabii May 17, 2024 @ 11:49am 
I don't know why, but since today my game is constantly crashing because of a (large) ship of mine and your mod. This ship has literally nothing to do with your mod (no blocks from it at all), but when I try to spawn it in or move up to it when it's already there, the game crashes. When I remove the mod the bug seems to be fixed. Really strange...
M4TIx12 May 11, 2024 @ 9:10pm 
Could you make more variants of the flight surfaces? and I would also like to have wings angled up or down at the wingtips, like the wings of the HE-162 for example.
Cosmonaut May 9, 2024 @ 8:41am 
Will do. It will be some time before the server is ready and it's uploaded. Much appreciated!
Const  [author] May 9, 2024 @ 12:36am 
as long as credited/linked here, sure
Cosmonaut May 8, 2024 @ 4:09pm 
Hey there, I'm putting together a Battlestar Galactica themed server and was wondering if I could reupload (with credit, of course) the landing gear and fighter hud/seat? We really only need these blocks for the server and don't want the extra mods loaded from the dependencies. Thank you for your time and putting together this wonderful mod!
War Criminal Mio Honda Apr 17, 2024 @ 12:09am 
ahh ok, I guess it would be asking for far too much of space engineers for it to data link to friendly planes for longer range shots.
Const  [author] Apr 16, 2024 @ 11:51pm 
self only
it's only a non-damaging weapon with very long range for WC lock
it serves no other purpose
War Criminal Mio Honda Apr 16, 2024 @ 11:40pm 
How does the E-2 radar dish work? It says in the description it can increase lock on range but doe sit only apply that to the plane or can it give that data to other planes?
Const  [author] Apr 15, 2024 @ 11:00pm 
use the sphere collider version. disc collider wheels are bumpy
