Could you change when afterburners kick in?
The responsiveness at low speeds is so terrible that I rather park anywhere, pick it up and place the plane in it's parking spot in front of a smart loader.

I'm not sure if you can change that without scripting, I just used the exoskeleton prototype for it.

Not really, but I'm not sure how to fix that without breaking other stuff, for now it's not really a big deal.

Re: [0.13|0.14.23|0.15.12] Aircraft (1.3.6)

1.3.6 is released!

This is largely a testing release because I wanted to see how well the mod settings menu worked, and I'm fairly happy with it.

- Added a setting to disable aircraft sounds and revert to car engine, maybe now the vocal minority can get off my back about the sounds :roll:
- Added 'hardmode'. Basically it just halves all damage resistances on Aircraft, making them a bit easier for the biters to blow up. Watch yourself out there, and use the shields!
- Updated info.json to look a bit more appealing from the mod portal.

Aren't the aircraft a little small?

1.3.8 has been released!

- Added settings for Helicopters and Raven mod users to gate their respective researches behind Advanced Aerodynamics.

- Added Rocketry to the list of prerequisites for Gunships, since the recipe requires rocket launchers anyways.

Is each aircraft meant to have 2 versions with separate weapons? I don't know if its intended behavior because theirs no local for the other versions.

Re: [.13|.14.23|.15.40|.16.2] Aircraft (1.4.0)

1.4.0 has been released, allowing for 0.16 play. I have done no playtesting as of yet, so be warned.

- Compatibility settings temporarily disabled until compatible mods are updated.

1.4.1 has been released, re-enabling Helicopters compatibility setting.

1.4.2 is released, re-enabling Raven compatibility setting. Researches now only require 1 each of pack, e.g. 1 red 1 green 1 blue, instead of 3 red 2 green 1 blue, etc. Total packs required mildly increased to compensate.

1.4.3 is released, re-enabling Bob's mods compatibility. Updated Bob's mods version prerequisites.

Hey SuicidalKid,

Love your mod, nothing better than fast exploration and killing biters from the air. But uhm... It takes a while to get there. Have you thought about early game flying? Maybe an autogyro with no inventory that only fits the player?

Something like this:

Nice. New graphics ftw.^^

The belt immunity is also a good thing, I try to avoid belts/inserters though as they tend to unload my planes, is there something I can do against that?
and that just after I build a express highway for my planes 8-)

As for inserters, I'm not sure if you can stop it from doing that without some fairly heavy scripting. I try to stay away from that, since if it breaks I would have no clue how to fix it.

1.4.9 is released.

Locale:
- Minor Russian translation tweaks, thanks to IgorLutiy.
Bugfixes:
- Fixed that toggling a compatibility setting for a non-installed mod would crash the game on startup.

As usual, if you find any bugs, report them here, on Github or on the Mod Portal.

Afterburner?
Settings? Where do I find those? Would be nice to get a bit of documentation. Or maybe I'm just blind.

Is there any way to toggle a certain take off-speed like the "raven" mod has? I really like it since it adds a small challange and feels more like a plane. There used to be this mod but it doesnt work anymore.

You research it after Advanced Aerodynamics and you can slot it into the aircraft equipment grid for a speed boost.

You can use this one and just change the "factorio_version" in the info.json from 0.15 to 0.16. I don't maintain it because if the script breaks, idk how to fix it.

It doesn't work, I'm getting a script error.

Code: Select all

Thanks anyway! :)
