Correction: sheilds' ability to reflect bullets at high speed.

Yea, ive gotten really tired of fixing things nick has broken. I don't even update 2/3rds of the aircraft because the mechanics get so horribly broken so the fact that something this new is already acting up is really frustrating.

The most recent patches seem to have severly hampered sheilds' ability to reflect bullets. That's one option.

I have been working on minor engine optimizations but it hasant helped much. Ammo producers are pretty taxxing on the engine aswell so it is unlikely that I'll add more unless a bit more power is freed up.

Overall pretty effective. Ammo capacity is a tad lacking, and it suffers from overheating issues in combat, but I don't think I've seen another aircraft this powerful for how compact and inexpensive it is. Not to mention it's wonderful for getting behind enemy aircraft, and its use of standard autoloaders means it'll virtually never run out of ammo.

Developing these compact, finely tuned, and incredibly deadly aircraft is quite a long process for how small they are. The process can vary on a case-to-case basis but for the average vehicle the process is something like this:

Depending on the complexity of the concept it can take two or three days just to plan out the fuselage.

Then the engines & weapons usually take another three or four days or even a week.
(working on-and-off sometimes or troubleshooting problems we find)

Then come secondary systems like weapon control assist and flight control assist computers or specialized systems like countermeasures or intelligence equipment.

After that there is alot of field testing to discover and resolve any bugs or defects. Adding, removing, and tuning different aspects to make the craft as effective as possible until it is deemed high quality enough for 1.0 release.

Aight

What you don't realise is this guy or his friends that upload to the workshop and many others put in alot of hours building(I spent 10+ hours building the Hull of my Cruiser, and over 5+ hours designing guns for it). Ship building takes a while but thats why they do it so they can share their content with us and show us what people can do/accomplish if they put time into things.

How do people make awesome shit like this while all of my friends and I cant even make a working plane, wtf
