@Reaper47 You need to angle the wings to get level flight. This isn't a fluid simulation. Also, this isn't an email to the president. Lol.

Dear, Dasetwas

I recently found your mod in hopes of creating a plane in scrap mechanic. I started with a box with wings that almost worked, and then I tried a jet with larger wings for (in theory) more lift. The plane seemed to not lift at all, so I need your help. Plus, who knows if we can troubleshoot a thing or two. I can upload my jet If needed, but I really need your help.

Sincerely, Reaper47

What this mod is for? Is it possible to build planes with it?
Piano Man 27 Jan, 2022 @ 11:50am 
the turning barely works
Piano Man 27 Jan, 2022 @ 11:45am 
this doesnt work

Is it possible to make an airfoil shape to generate lift?
Piano Man 18 Jul, 2021 @ 12:46pm 
yes crashes my game
DasEtwas  [author] 23 Jun, 2021 @ 8:15am 
the mod does not work that way, that must be placebo
DasEtwas  [author] 21 Jun, 2021 @ 10:02am 
You're right, and me too
iheart_theRains169 20 Jun, 2021 @ 7:36am 
that makes no sense, i preffer the wings mod
DasEtwas  [author] 18 Jun, 2021 @ 5:26pm 
@halmets The terrible answer is: it depends, and it is inconsistent based on the orientation of your build in the creation's local coordinate space. This mod is getting worrying amounts of subs, maybe I should revamp it...
halmets 16 Jun, 2021 @ 12:28pm 
If two blocks are laying next to each other and start moving in a direction so that only one block has air resistance (like this: <----[][]), will the drag be that of two blocks or will the mod recognize that there is no air in front of the right block, meaning that the drag is the same as with one block?

Visible confusion:missing:
DasEtwas  [author] 4 Jun, 2021 @ 9:19am 
This mod isn't really suited for... anything flying :p
Trycia Lotus 🌸 4 Jun, 2021 @ 9:12am 
Maybe if I manage to orient a bar I can make a propeller but it's gonna be big
Trycia Lotus 🌸 4 Jun, 2021 @ 9:11am 
Ok, i guess I won't be building any helicopters any time soon
DasEtwas  [author] 4 Jun, 2021 @ 6:29am 
No, the "aerodynamic shape" of every part is its bounding box, which is always a cuboid.
Trycia Lotus 🌸 3 Jun, 2021 @ 11:50pm 
Does it work on ramp blocks? I want to make a propeller
Trycia Lotus 🌸 3 Jun, 2021 @ 11:46pm 
I really needed that
Bingus 25 Dec, 2020 @ 12:34pm 
It wasnt working
Bingus 25 Dec, 2020 @ 11:59am 
The first time
This is awsome just what i need
Bingus 25 Dec, 2020 @ 11:58am 
Good job landing the plane
shalafichg 1 Jul, 2020 @ 2:53pm 
I can help you with the ecuations if you need!.

Now that survival modding is out, is this survival too or would you have to make changes to it?
Barni 1 Jun, 2020 @ 12:51am 
Survival modding will need to be added both by devs and modmakers.
Kumpel Kumplowski 29 May, 2020 @ 1:08am 
Yes, survival edition we'll be very appreciated :)
Jaspersgames 28 May, 2020 @ 7:02am 
can u make it so that we can add it to survival?
DasEtwas  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 11:54am 
i do not
Famous5000 15 Apr, 2020 @ 10:07am 
I was posting it here because I was hoping you'd have a solution, and not to just laugh at me like I'm crazy.
DasEtwas  [author] 15 Apr, 2020 @ 10:05am 
lol? idk
Famous5000 14 Apr, 2020 @ 8:23pm 
The only problem I have with this mod is that after the first load, you HAVE to restart your game to let it play with that mod again. Because it ID conflicts with itself.
TheNarrator 19 Mar, 2020 @ 1:23am 
im building planes with the wings mod then taking the wings off and using this mod and the wings mod works but this doesnt.
Marca 4 Jan, 2020 @ 7:38am 
this mod doesn't work that great. i have a hard time making my plane fly and it has to fly at very high speeds. i like the consept and i would love to play with it again when it gets better
MaxNoDifference 1 Jan, 2020 @ 9:35pm 
i spent an hour making a plane im dissapointed.
Feminas denme bola 31 Dec, 2019 @ 5:45pm 
realistic and fun
alfie8010 8 Oct, 2019 @ 10:16am 
the wright brothers should be impressed
Scrap Master 25 Sep, 2019 @ 8:25pm 
sooo cool:steamhappy:
MatchaOnly 15 Sep, 2019 @ 8:14pm 
this make the game realistic
pcollinson 2 Sep, 2019 @ 12:06pm 
cool
Noperman 7 Jul, 2019 @ 3:19am 
lol
DasEtwas  [author] 29 Jun, 2019 @ 3:14pm 
nope
danda.martinek 29 Jun, 2019 @ 7:45am 
any updates?
DasEtwas  [author] 29 Mar, 2019 @ 6:30am 
@TonyGamer no, there is no occlusion
Adi 28 Mar, 2019 @ 8:23pm 
does this take into account if other blocks are in the way? like you have a wing that has a piston inside with more thing that you can stick out to provide more drag/lift
koishicat 31 Dec, 2018 @ 12:58am 
Can you release the plane in the video as a blueprint?
DasEtwas  [author] 3 Dec, 2018 @ 7:03am 
yep
Adi 3 Dec, 2018 @ 6:21am 
I have attempted to use this a few times and it doesn't seem powerful enough, even though it's realistic, it doesn't make much of a difference unless you are going at a super high speed
Adi 17 Nov, 2018 @ 3:48pm 
I was messing with the mod but it doesn't seem to be doing much at all, am I missing something? I am using the aero block
