@lafario I was lucky I clicked on this notification first - I was curious what you meant by "trolling". But thanks for the laugh! Btw, do you want to test a new program? I want to test its behaviour on other devices, you can find it here. Edit: Oops, wrong link, it's here.
@lafario I'm not sure about the Drood. As it doesn't seem to have Additional settings (or Tinker panel), I can't think off a way to get its id, or add a flight program. Might be possible by having a look in the XML, but Android doesn't like that.
@lafario That's strange... As spacesailor said, maybe closing and reopening im.ge helps. The only similiar thing that happened to me was when a gif wasn't shown at all, and there it helped.
@SpaceSeekers That's because you always need some kind of command chip / pod. Create a command chip, open its properties and click on "set primary". Then, you can delete the crew pod and put the command chip in your satellite.
@SpaceMann Von den Raketen hier solltest du keinen Virus bekommen. Wenn du etwas von dieser Website herunterlädst, wird noch nichts auf deinen Speicher geschrieben, es werden nur die Daten zu der Rakete aus der Datenbank von der Wehsite gelesen und in das Spiel selbst importiert. Stelle deine Fragen aber besser auf Englisch, sonst wirst du selten Antworten bekommen. Falls du kein Englisch kannst, kannst du ja auch einen Übersetzer benutzen.
@NewIIFrontiers On the right hand side of the craft editor there is a button that looks like an head. If you click on it, you can pull the member (left) to the seat/drood/command pod/...(right). If there are no members you have to hire an astronaut ("Hire Astronaut").
@kenkoba You can post a craft by pressing the button with the square and the arrow (pointing up) in the menu of the designer. But you have to take the in-game screenshots by pressing the button with the camera (menu)
Well, let‘s see…
Right now: Linkin Park - A Place For My Head
Previously:
Linkin Park - Lost
Linkin Park - Qwerty
Blur - Song 2
Opal in Sky - Planetary Bliss (quite new band, if you like… “calm“ music, go check them out - but wait for the refrain, that often sounds like a completely different song)
Skillet - Hero (sth a little more “epic“ - not the best word to describe it, but I can‘t think of anything better rn)
Linkin Park - Given Up (wait for around 2:20 for 17 seconds of Chester screaming)
Everlast - Stones (that really doesn‘t fit into the rest today, does it?)
Opal in Sky - The Blight
Linkin Park - Forgotten
Linkin Park - No More Sorrow (a lot of Linkin Park today)
Opal in Sky - Reflection
Opal in Sky - The Sacral
@Livingg017 I talked to Lq11 and we got sth that should work. If he hasn't sent you anything yet (I was away for a few hours), I think you can expect results... let's say tomorrow, it's quite late in my timezone (and I think in his too)
@Lq11 Oh, that's what you mean. Would that be SubPartRotator.Data.CurrentEnabledPercent? Cause I can't find a currentEnabledPercent for landing gear bays, only for the gear itself
I couldn't test it yet, but I think such a program could look like this:
while ( true ) {
wait until ( not(activation group 8) )
Set Activation Group ( 7 ) to ( true )
wait ( 2.5 ) seconds
Set ( Slider 4 ) to ( 1 )
Set Activation Group ( 10 ) to ( false )
wait ( 2 ) seconds
Set Activation Group ( 7 ) to ( false )
wait until ( activation group 8 )
Set Activation Group ( 7 ) to ( true )
wait ( 2.5 ) seconds
Set ( Slider 4 ) to ( 0 )
Set Activation Group ( 10 ) to ( true )
wait ( 2 ) seconds
Set Activation Group ( 7 ) to ( false )
}
If you want to use Lq11's suggestion, simply replace all the set AGs with set variable to true/false and the Set Slider 4s with set variable to 1/0 - the value the variables are set to are the same as with the AGs (e.g. if the AG is set to false, the variable needs to be set to false too).
A little note about what Lq11 said:
I'm not entirely sure, but I think that won't work if the command pod's name has a space. E.g., if the name is Command Pod, I think it will see Command and Pod.VZ.variableName as two separate instructions because of the space. So you'll probably have to rename it (e.g. to Command_Pod)
Edit: Since the website ignores lines starting with spaces even in code blocks: everything in the program above has to be in the while ( true ) loop
The problem is Google - according to their policy for developers, "[The developer is] responsible for ensuring that third-party code and practices do not cause [the] [...] app to violate the Google Play Developer Program Guidelines." So if any mod violated Google's guidelines, the devs would be responsible. Overcoming the apple app store's guidelines would be a bit easier (the website already has most of the stuff they require, like the ability to report and ban people), but they'd still have to make mod makers give things like contact information
@PZLAgencies Picture
You see the red circle on that picture? A fire station for that corner would be great, do you think you can do that? I had to hide the only custom building I made so far in a hangar, a fire station is far out of my planet studio capabilities. I wouldn't consider that "basic stuff" though, so if that's too much, please be honest - I don't want to waste your time by making you build sth and then not using it
@PZLAgencies Thanks! Are you good at making buildings (like a fire station) in planet studio? Apart from that, the base is mostly done, I just need to work a bit on taxiway lights (one rapid exit is done, need to do the same for the other one) and add some more decoration. And the LODs, I surely forgot to set some...
Sadly I still can't reach im.ge, so I still can't add any pictures
@MAKO2143 Also, when you answer people, it‘s usually best to ping them - otherwise they won‘t see it. To ping someone, simply click on the “reply“ button on the right of their comment
@Lq11 Oh, he's banned again? Could be copying others, I talked to a mod about him a while ago. I'm not sure though, back then we couldn't find enough proof
@Livingg017 The ping didn‘t work for some reason, I just stumbled across this in the forum list. Declaring Usrelia as the winner seems logical though, I‘d take him blocking you as a surrender, especially with you already leading 1-0

I tried that once, iirc the craft is crushed even with damage at 0%. I don‘t think you can bypass that without deactivating crush height in planet studio
@castellareospace160706 You need to get a link to the image, one that ends with the file type (e.g. https://www.somewebsite.com/imagelink.jpg).
If the picture already is somewhere on the internet (e.g. as thumbnail of a craft here), that link already exists and you can just copy it. How that works depends on your browser and the website. On samsung internet, to copy a picture link from most websites (including simplerockets.com) you need to click on the picture and wait for a window with a button that says "show picture" to appear (on PC it's probably right click, I'm not sure how it works on safari). It then opens a link with just the picture. Copy that link and insert it here (note: doesn't work in comments) like this: . It should then show the picture.
If the picture isn't on the internet yet, you need to do that yourself. Upload your picture to an image hosting platform (e.g. im.ge, linked on my profile) and find "markdown full linked" in a dropdown menu you'll see after uploading (says "viewer link" by default). That already does all the formatting (the ![]() stuff) for you, so you can simply paste this entire string into a post here.
There are tons of other ways of formatting here, check out Mostly's post formatting guide.
