1. New file system

   Here’s some ideas from me and other people regarding the files for aircraft/subassemblies

   -Deleting Aircraft/subassemblies(Basically it won’t go back to the start when you delete one of these)

   -Easier scrolling, sometimes you accidentally click a Aircraft, or close the tab on accident, let’s have a system similar to spawning AI in the game, where you can scroll with that lead on the side

   -An increase in the file size, by this I mean making the tab bigger, something similar to the page where you spawn AI

   -Categories for crafts(Ships, Fighters. you get the idea)

   -More advance targeting for Crafts, manually Telling the craft what to do

   -Multiple deletions at one, not one by one, cause we all get tired of doing the same thing over and over, like spring cleaning but you have to take everything out one by one

   -so this is what I got and from what other people thought, so not everyone shares the same ideas but wouldn’t it be nice to have a easier system without the waste of time by doing everything one by one?

3. Different UI and layout ideas, I guess

   This game is therapy and I try to appreciate it and it's developers every time I build. These ideas might improve the mobile experience even more if you happen to agree and have the time.

   Unconnected Part Finder: sometimes parts that aren't connected to the main cockpit either directly or indirectly are hiding, either set aside for later use or inside and forgotten. Maybe a tool that highlights those pieces while making the rest of your build into a skeleton would be a good idea. Also, maybe a list that shows their coordinates.

   Multiple light sources in build mode: Sometimes you might want different color schemes on either side of your build or underneath and the uneven lighting can make it hard to get a good look.

   An option to have the main cockpit always set to an X coordinate of Zero when returning from testing or reloading: When your build environment is temporarily lopsided, the cockpit seems to set at maybe the mathematical center of the far left and far right pieces. Also, sometimes mirroring doesn't do the trick and you have to manually place a piece. Knowing that the other side will always be a mirrored number would really help ensure accuracy of placement, and with speed. Or maybe instead be able to set the exact default location for the main cockpit for builds with multiple or uncommon points of symmetry.

   Multiple color layout options for the build environment. The dark gray and light gray is serviceable, but it makes it hard to see gray pieces when using Multi-select. Having a button that would make the entire environment different shades of green or red or fuchsia would cinch that up.

   In Attachment Editor, the arrows that show for the underside connections often don't light up when selecting them. Maybe it's an environment lighting issue, or maybe something was overlooked. Also, you're probably aware that on mobile, there's a bug that turns Touch Select on when adding attachments. Maybe that mode is useful for somebody (though I can't work out how) so I wouldn't suggest getting rid of it entirely, but it can be a little frustrating when you have to decide between either finding the exact locations of all of the pieces you just accidentally moved or hitting 'Undo' and losing all of the settings/XML edits you just worked on since the last time you moved a piece. I'm training myself to always compensate for that bug, but I don't remember as consistently as I'd like and I do a lot of settings at a time sometimes, so what parts I set or edited can be easy to forget, too.

   Is there any way to set a light to start in the "Off" position in blink programs? It would make certain sequences easy that I can't figure out with every light beginning in 'On.'

   The ability in mobile to change the size of the cursor while leaving the rest of the UI as is. Also, I can't get the "Lock Position" command to work and I think it's because of the location of where the cursor points, so maybe the ability to flip that down so we can reach the bottom of the screen.

   I know you must be aviation enthusiasts and want to spread that interest. Links to aviation engineering learning sites and information on how young people might get into it (maybe just on the website).

   Links to XML learning tools (maybe just on the website).

   You say that Google requires you to have 64-bit something something (encoding?) for modders and Unity only does 32-bit of that something. Is the idea of a unique key for somebody who already purchased from Google Play for a third-party download version that allows for that modding unrealistic? Some of these people make real art and engineer some great tools that people without computers miss out on.

   Just ideas and thoughts. I know I write too much. These are by no means complaints or critiques, this game was an all-time favorite before Update 1.9 came out, and it's even better now. It far exceeds my expectations for a $5 game or whatever I paid, and I hope to learn more with it and for it. I'll eventually have some dough to check out your other games too (probably). Thank you for the great pastime. :)

   And arresting cables

4. Add Area/Point Track Targeting Pod

   A pod with a point track and a screen part that displays what the camera sees. When pointing at a target, the pod could guide a missile (maybe a Targeting Pod-only missile??) to the point. Thanks!

5. Simpleplanes... 2

   So, there are things. Many, many things needed.

   But, I'll focus on one specific thing. The map.

   The map on SP is fine, for now, but the ability to enable small islands, clear water, additional button for Maywar, all need to be done.

   Since mobile is, well, mobile, if you had a 100 part plane, for example, going to or using a Maywar map would be fine.

   Second thing about maps: AI. The dogfight AI is already horrific. The ship AI too. The ships should have defenses for missiles, sort of like the Ice Base. The carrier should be armed with CIWS and AEGIS anti-missile emplacements. There should also be a button to allow the Ice Base and the carriers to launch planes, for example Wasps.

   There should also be an option to make AI planes fly with you in a formation, and attack as necessary.

   Saying that, there needs to be an AI turret block, so a bomber like a B-29 can have turrets that are automatic.

   Spawning AI ground units should be a thing, as well as an intake map and level editor.

   More parts, and other such new things.

   Hope you can, Andrew. Nathan. Other amazing people.

6. AI Wingman

   It would be awesome to have AI as wingman. You could choose the number of wingman you want, and the aircraft too. The AI would try to keep your speed, and follow you on your side. You could make the wingman break down or send them to fight with targets. I know it has been suggested a lot of times, but it would be really cool.

7. Highly Customizable Weapons

   I would absolutely love having highly customizable weapons.

   • I want to be able to edit the explosion scale in bombs and missiles, and customize the weapon’s look with things like fin shape, Body size and shape, and tip shape, (Sharp, dull, weird ring type thingy, etc.).

   • I also would like to be able to add modules to missiles and bombs, such as laser guidance, heat-seeking capabilities, armor piercing tips, and a better cockpit aiming system for guns and bombs.

   • Last but not least, I would like to have more weapons added, such as nuclear warheads, thermonuclear warheads, hydrogen bombs, guided bombs, more unguided missiles, homing missile pods (like a pod of 10 inferno), nuclear missiles, time bombs, manual detonation bombs, incendiary bombs, thermobaric bombs, dirty bombs, electromagnetic bombs, MOAB & FOAB bombs, and cluster bombs. I know this would probably be extremely hard to code, but PLEASE try this. Oh, and can you add mushroom clouds in the bombs and make multirole missiles possible?

8. Cannon sound

   The current cannon sound is terrible. It sounds like a nerf gun. It would be fantastic to have an option to choose between multiple sounds for your cannon, such as "tank cannon, mortar, autocannon,....."

9. Helicopter Rotor blurring

   It's painful to look at the rotor spinning around without blurring, it just looks like it's teleporting around. The regular propellers look nice, why can't the helicopter ones blur as well?

12. CMMS (Custom Missile Making System)

    Custom missiles maker and saver to be used as a single custom missile weapon is very efficient way to make custom missiles . For now , we are using overload and fine tuner mod to make custom missiles . I think we (Custom missile making enthusiasts) should have a custom missile making system to save time for other things like airplane making . i think simple planes community should work on this idea . I kindly request the community to work on this idea . THANK YOU

13. Flight Data Recorder / Black Box

    As the title suggests. Record all telemetry for a game session. It could be the core of a variety of new features, from statistics displayed at the end of a game session to solving the problem of creating game replays. If you could download telemetry, the Funky Trees people would go nuts.

16. improve UI scaling

    Use DPI relative sizes so that buttons are not so tiny on high DPI screens, such as 2013 nexus 7. On the n7 there is tons of blank space surrounding very small buttons... Use some of it to make the buttons easier to hit. Otherwise/despite this small flaw, awesome.
