I'm starting to work on the Juno plane contracts now. I have a few mockups for autopilot that are working OK. Does anyone have small, light, cheap planes with goo maneuverability and speed?
@CloakPin nice thanks for testing so quickly! I've found it works about 80% of the time, with the one tough part being the hairpin ramp turn around for some reason. Good enough to post and move on!
@CloakPin yeah I’m working on a waypoint navigation system to complete the village race contracts. That might work for the moon rover with some modifications. If you have free time you can give it a test. Just launch from Juno Runway. Download unlisted craft here.
Had to come out of retirement to contribute a recommendation for the new name.
“This rocket goes in your space.”
“Rocket goes in ya’ space.”
“Goes in ya’ space.”
“Gozinya Space.”
“Gozinya.”
Great job simplifying the process. Mine is still way too complex and requires Excel (because I don’t know how to program python or powershell). I like yours too because it preserves the original colors; mine relies on posterizing to reduce file size, but this seems to load just as quickly.
The only successful way I’ve seen to create FBW system is to tie all of the control surface inputs directly to Vizzy variables rather than the default pitch/yaw/roll inputs. Here is a great example: FBW Wasp
I foresee the planet studio feature becoming a black hole for my free time.
Pun intended.
But seriously, on the eve of the US Thanksgiving holiday, I’d like to express sincere thanks to the dev team at Jundroo for continuing to devote energy to constantly improving this amazing game. I’ve never played another game that combines creativity, engineering, design, problem solving, sense of community, and sheer fun the way this does.
@Giova
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll do the roman empire flag, the warsaw pact flag, and the italian flag for sure. I won't do the Nazi swaztika flag (sorry). The SR2 logo is already a sprite that you can use. For that, check out my Sprite Pack post.
@CSPACE
I finally finished your logo and it’s here!. It doesn’t look perfect because of the way I generate the images, but it’s pretty close. I hope you like it!
Please upvote this suggestion if you would like the logo backgrounds to be transparent.
Also...
For those wondering how this is done, here is my sequence of operations:
1. Download high res image
2. Color in the background areas green or some other color that is very different
3. Tightly crop the image
4. Downsize the image so that the longest dimension (width or height) is 256 pixels
5. Use a ‘posterizer’ to reduce the number of colors while still maintaining differences between the primary colors
6. Assign single-digit numbers to the colors produced
7. Perform a ‘line scan’ process (currently custom-built macro in Excel, not very user-friendly) and store the image as a series of list values where the first digit is the color code and the rest is the length of the color ‘string’
8. Copy the resulting list into the Vizzy XML to create a single list variable containing all of the image data
9. Resize the MFD to match the image dimensions
Alternatively, you could just follow steps 1-4 then extract each of the pixel values and get a ‘true color’ image. However, this would take much more memory and my goal was to keep the amount of memory stored in the MFD to a minimum so that crafts are quick to download and use.
@G01d3n check out the vizzy code in my latest craft, it has a line to lock on heading.

Haha yes it will be mobile tolerant. Many fewer parts.
Good idea for the laser. I’ll do some testing to see if I can get the look right.
