[@9051team]

The possibilities of this game and your ability to make the best use of them always blows my mind.

[@diogenes6809]

The reason your airplane couldn't take off is because the main gear were too far back. Ideally, an aircraft with tricycle gear like the one you created will have the main gear just aft of the center of mass of the plane, so that they rest under the pivot point when you pull back to take off. Pilots call this moment "rotation", because the plane rotates around the center of mass. If you keep the main gear too far aft, it acts like a wheelie bar, keeping the nose down and preventing you from climbing.

[@wladynoszkapitany8277]

[@doodoobadoo2506]

I love that you pulled an A-10 and built the plane around the weapon(s).

[@jackevans7665]

For a cluster bomb you could had made the fins angle abit so it would spin as it falls down, then have a hopper system so that small grenades would fall out as it spins. Finally have a sensor and times delay so once the bomb hits the ground all the grenades would detonate.

[@KorianHUN]

[@lamp4498]

I’m kinda surprised for the cluster bombs that you didn’t have the wheel pieces counter-rotate in order to keep them straight. Also, another idea I had for weaponry would be a projectile that first fired a ballast at a target, then shooting a bomb into the hole the ballast made for an armour piercing effect

[@endur1el]

[@kennethmitchell1418]

You might have been able to use the panel panel pieces to add a protective fairing around the bombs so that way they can bounce around in the hopper but still explode from a higher impact because the pieces would break and put the bomb contact whatever hit then again I might not have worked because I haven’t tried it nor have I played the game

Okay so this game recently came out on Xbox game pass and ever since I saw this game I dreamed of building a plane. So I attempted it and although I had low expectations I ended up making a super controllable plane that has full range of motion that a plane should, and a couple weapons (rockets). It has no trouble taking off or landing (doesn't even blow up on a hard landing). I'm really proud of it and dont really have anywhere to share my accomplishment, so I figured I'd drop it here. Can't wait till more contents come to besiege game pass.

[@doggonemess1]

Great video! I've never heard of this game, it's very Kerbal Space Program-ish and I can't wait to try it. Control advice - the horizontal stabilizers (fins on the tail) are too small. If you make them bigger and add elevators to the tail, that should give you enough pitch control. You might also consider adding canards - small fins on the front of the plane that work as elevators, but for this design, it might be much more effective.

[@endercake3403]

Okay a few tips for more effective bombers -instead of ballast, take grenades and time charge them roughly 5 seconds after dropoff. You can do that automatically with the timer -Make sure to shrink everything down in the end, using for example hardscale, smaller planes lag less and are usually lighter -Use skins (I can only promote the Al and st series of skins for their great quality) -Use small rockets facing to the back of the plane as flares. Most modern fighters have a few 6 - or 8 radar targeting missiles nowadays. Know how to avoid them -Structural integrity makes our well literally breaks a build. Use more shafts to keep everything together. -Drop off unessecary weight. Make disposable parts of the plane dropable with grabbers. This will be a) a way to relief weight and b) a budget grade bomb . Well that's it maybe also get some tail guns or other 6 guard but the plane is pretty solid there's not too much you can improve here otherwise

For example in the case of the B-29 superfortress x40 incenteary bombs or even (with modification) an atomic weapon.

I have an idea for a Besiege machine. A spinning bomb thrower, similar to the cluster missile (spinning missile) you designed. My thoughts: Slow moving High power Many, MANY bombs Wheel The firing mechanism is that it just spins and the bombs are flung EVERYWHERE.

[@LftRhtGN]

These bombs need to be in the Geneva suggestion

[@robot_spider]

Move your rear landing gear closer to the center of gravity. You need the water cannon in the front because it requires too much torque to overcome the position of the rear landing gear. If you move it up, it will be able to pitch up easier. I learned that building planes in Kerbal, but I suspect the physics in Besiege are similar. tldr; the plane is too stable on the ground. Amazing build. You have far more patience than I do with the game!
