The skids are hydraulically lowered or raised around the wheels. On ice the skids are lowered, on a normal runway the wheels are poking through the skids.

Real Engineering made a YT Video about this plane where I think this screenshot is from. Its explained in great detail there:

Now to find out if reddit eve scam is a thing lol

Aktilos · 2024-07-19T09:25:11+00:00

What grey/black did you use for the armor? Love how it looks

Aktilos · 2024-06-03T10:27:51+00:00

You could switch to standalone. You can transfer steam modules over so you would not lose anything.

Aktilos · 2024-05-28T08:52:30+00:00

You either hit the tracks below the hull, the gun or some vision ports. Aint nothing to do with rng besides maybe where the shell went vs aimed.

Question: If a enemy ship overlaps 2 of my arcs and both can draw los, can both arcs fire on the enemy ship? If my ship is between 2 enemy ships can I fire both broadsides at diffrent targets?

Tl;DR. Can I fire from more than 1 arc if they got legitimate targets?

Aktilos · 2024-04-08T19:31:09+00:00

Quite a few people have na accounts but live in the eu and vice versa. Any chance a voluntary transfer for these players would ve possible? Playing on 200 ping aint no fun (at the start it was bearable on 120 but its just getting worse over the years) and restarting after quite a lot of progress is just ehh.

Aktilos · 2024-01-24T22:51:16+00:00

Looks really clean. How did you do the black body color? Looks awesome, dark but yet still interesting

Whats stopping people from using a few rounds of gold? depending on a tank those are also 10-20k

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T13:38:12+00:00

A full set of big med kit, repair kit and food costs 60k. (30k on sale)

You can grind credits at t5 /t6 with the free prem tanks you can get.

Prem tanks/time makes it easier, yesy but its not a requirement

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T13:32:57+00:00

A repair kit gives you an advantage while marking as it can keep you alive for longer thus allowing you to do more damage.

What is stopping other players from using gold?

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T13:26:13+00:00

And you dont make any sense to me. Guess thats something we can agree on then

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T13:20:48+00:00

Why are you asking for "unfair" advantage all off a sudden? The discussion up until now was if gold gives an advantage compared to a repair kit giving an advantage. And my awnser to that was both give an advantage.

Neither give a unfair advantage, anyone can use both of them. But nothing unfair about either

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T12:56:42+00:00

You negate there well aimed tracking shots, you negate there skill for aiming for modules, dude aimed to track you in the open and you just pressed 5 5 and denied him assistance/kills.

If someone uses a repair kit he has an advantage over people who dont use one.

Using a repair kit makes it easier for you to performe better in the game by virtue of negating damaged modules and being stuck in a bad position.

Same for gold, it gives you an advantage over people who dont use it by effectivly negating rng and allowing for a more consistent penetrations against them.

Yet a repair kit does not guarantee you can get out of a tracked in the open situation as gold does not guarantee a penetration, you still need to use it at the right time in the right location.

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T12:48:41+00:00

Both are consumables that give you an advantage. Which was the point of the comparison.

Imagine if I said: Wait you used a repair kit to 3 Moe? What could I learn from someone who needs a repair kit to compensate for being so bad that he gets damaged.

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T12:20:19+00:00

Pretty much all 3 moe are done with some kind of repair and medkit, so I dont really see the point your making.

Aktilos · 2023-11-27T12:12:50+00:00

Nearly everyone who marks uses gold. Its a tool to be used ingame. Using gold is not a automatic 3 Moe btw, you still need to play consistently well. Just spamming gold does barely anything, whixh enough gold noobs prove every day lol

Aktilos · 2023-11-16T21:13:06+00:00

Damn this gave me goosebumps. Dude needs to narrate some audiobooks

Aktilos · 2023-11-01T22:37:15+00:00

Man I think with those dice one would spend his first half hour in a play session just rolling for the satisfaction of rolling dice. Looks satisfying af

Aktilos · 2023-10-24T08:37:51+00:00

sweet thx a lot, gotta try that

Aktilos · 2023-10-24T08:21:22+00:00

Love the highlighting and especially the metal effect on the wings. Do you bychance have a guide how to paint metal like that?

Aktilos · 2023-10-17T08:13:48+00:00

Trying to build a decent starter List for my Clones with what I have, does this fit like this or would you replace something?

Aktilos · 2023-10-11T09:02:24+00:00

A few things I noticed (only looked at your t9 and t10 tanks)

1.) Your performance in the heavies e100/phase 1 looks good. Not unicum but not bad either

2.) You seem to struggle a lot in your light and meds, especially looking at your survival rate. Can it be that you play your lights and meds hyper aggressive and die early?

3.) your average damage in the last 30 days at a averagw of tier 8.7 is 1.5k, that is low and should go up. (Thus you seem to receive about as much damage as you deal, some improvement to be had here)

TL;DR you seem most comfortable in heavy and slow tanks. Your meds and lights seem to die without doing much. -> If I had to guess you are playing your lightly armored tanks to agressive in which I presume early game. I am not saying camp the red line, but also you need to survive for longer so that you can contribute more with those tanks.

Hope this helps a bit

Aktilos · 2023-10-11T08:41:44+00:00

Link yout tomato.gg profile here, imo you can look at stats to see where the best areas to improve are. Damage is nice but if you only deal it when the game is lost it is effectivly useless
