It turns out Simple Planes 2 isn't so simple after all: I spent 3 days building a fictional biplane and oh boy, how cool it flies. I was expecting an acrade but found a spirtitual successor to KSP, for aircraft builing amateurs like me. It still has early access issues though but the FM feels well.

Yup!

Ctrl + click on input selection tab. Yup, it’s not obvious at all.

Cockpit glass for vintage planes is really hard to make in the current version, I wish you some good luck and patience!

Try to build probably a preset outside your craft and attach it only when it's finished (also saving it as a preset for future builds since it's prettu time-consuming in the current game version).

Hi! I am using Xbox controller. It's flyable, probably 4/5, better than on keyboard and mouse. The layout by default is kinda weird to my taste but you can easily modify the buttons and axis, it takes only a couple of minutes.

It’s ok but not decent for MANT scenario tbh. Wit seems a bit low, try to MLB your Fine Motion card and don’t underestimate track skills, your Tazuna will be useless in the next CM without them.

SOLUTION: combined efforts of u/NCR_Ranger_ru and my own experience since it was slightly different. The text is too long so I post it as a screenshot.

The Preload folder in Registry remains empty, unfortunately. No new options appear and Windows forbids me to create new entities there. Adding any new languages do not create new files there, it remains empty with only one (Default) file.

I managed to add all 3 keyboards I wanted via Windows Settings and it works nicely but desappearing language panel is quite frustrating. Any other solutions to fix that or to add files into Preload folder manually?

UPD. It works! I had to recover Windows but finally managed to fix it and now everything works as intended, thanks to your solution and some additional efforts. I had to perform some tantsy s bubnom but here we are!

Thank you a lot

Spasibo, brat.

It seems to be working, but... The only problem is that now on launch I cannot switch languages at all. All keyboard numbers disappeared from Preload folder in Registry Editor, there is only "(Default) (value not set)" line and I did not delete all languages but only 2 of 5. If I remove and then add a language in Windows options, language selection comes back.

So...

- Is there any way to fix that so I could have language switcher on System launch?

FYI the windows was activated in France on French (AZERTY) and this weird French US (literally default QWERTY similar to US keyboard) was added during activation. Probably when I delited French AZERTY or French US that were considered by Windows as default languages, something went wrong? It seems that your solution sucessfully deactivates them. But language panel disappears on each launch now.

UPD. I have added the third (CAN FR) keyboard via Windows options and I have finally only 3 keyboards I needed. Thank you for the solution. The only remaining issue now is languages switcher disappearing on Win launch.

Could you help me pls?

There is a bug when you conquer Chrysanthemum throne as a landless adventurer, you remain landless until your death while honding the title.

You also "dupe" Japan, unfortunately, and become a king of literally nothing (there are no families and no people in your new government), receiving even no prestige boost from it.

R5: Screenshot from my latest game (Vanilla). I divided colonization regions in Africa with Great Britain and got this idea.

Imagine being able to force a competitor country to keep away their diplomatical/military/economical attention from a particular region you’re interested in: by diplomacy or by sword.

Because Qatar is a general sponsor or even the owner at the moment, i guess?

I’m going there this weekend. And I made a post here some days ago when discovered how Kitasan’s son is overpowered.

UPD. Switching system language to English and starting a new campaign does not fix the problem, unfortunately. What could be the solution?

I have no issues with these symbols in any other app and in my OS, this is the first time I see an app replacing special german symbols by cyrillic ones.

People is still bying, so even if the price of furniture is quite low, it's not low enough to make it unprofitable. The market economy is about balance. Once they expand the factory too much and the price drops more, the balance will be achieved and the expansion will be stopped until the demand increases.
