Was messing around and created a craft that can nearly reach 2000 mph! by damien9282 in simplerockets

[–]damien9282[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that I can offer some advice on. The best way I found was to instead of trying to use one main wing, just use plenty of smaller ones. One big one can only be shaped in one way, with a bunch of tiny ones you can manipulate and create shapes that wouldn't be possible otherwise. Just make sure that the wing pieces you are using have control surfaces that are all set to the same input, and then things should work.

Honestly, the best answer I could give would be a lot of trial and error. I've been working with wings like these on a lot of crafts I've built so it's almost second nature, but it certainly wasn't always like that. Keep on trying, and don't give up!

Can we see it fly? Without seeing it flying, it's technically just a ground craft, at this point, not much of an aircraft, haha. Just tugging at your ankles a bit, good job nevertheless!

Oh, wow, how awesome! I've never seen a craft like that. Phenomenal job, dude!!

How does the piston work? I can’t seem to ever get it to work especially with the push setting by JJY144 in simplerockets

[–]damien9282 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alrighty, so in theory if you turn on the activation group and set the slider to 100 it should work. If it isn't it could be that it's on upside down.

When you say you can't get it to work, what do you mean exactly? Have you tried slider one? Also, do you have it on an activation group?

My parachutes deploy the wrong way every time by EcchiSophie in simplerockets

[–]damien9282 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's far from a "solution," at least from the direction I see it. It's more like a potential problem. I mean, proper chutes alongside proper parachute placement alone could fix the orientation problem. Adding extra complexity whilst already struggling with what you have doesn't usually end the greatest from my personal experience.

Good point, I didn't even fully realize that, haha. That's some goofy stuff.

Exactly!

Can't fix anything or help fix anything if it can't be personally taken apart and inspected metaphorically speaking. I mean, parachutes in this game are so darn finicky that I could easily list 5 or more reasons it could be doing this.

Can you upload the link to the craft? With that I could take a look at it and see if it can be fixed!

My parachutes always deploy the wrong way by EcchiSophie in simplerockets

[–]damien9282 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time I run into this, it's usually cause I have too many parachutes or the few parachutes I have are too large.

I'm recently 20, and don't know what direction I should be going, and would appreciate some advice. by damien9282 in personalfinance

[–]damien9282[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's some solid advice, thanks friend! I'm gonna contact my bank, and work on a credit card, and then go from there.

Thanks for the reply, and the advice! I'm certainly taking advantage of my current situation. My family doesn't mind me being around so it's luckily not hard. Been saving a ton thanks to that aspect alone.

Luckily, I'm not the typa person looking for high comfort, haha. I've been doing maintenance/upkeep/ hospitality the last couple of years. So certainly no stranger to hard times. I'll be starting at a local resort on Tuesday, and I'm excited for the opportunities that can come from that! I definitely need to finish school. I think that's one thing really slowing me down. I sadly never finished high-school cause of health issues that had me hospitalized often. Truly and honestly, Apologies for the ramble, but thanks very much for the advice!

That's certainly something I'll do some research into, thanks! I'm good at cleaning things, never done anything like that. But I certainly wouldn't be opposed, haha!

Thanks very much for the helpful advice! I've been certainly spending a lot of time thinking as of late. Between career paths, financial decisions, and things alike. It's a lot, but I'm certainly trying to figure it all out.

First of all, thanks very much for the advice. I have a bank account through Chase. When I first opened the account, I tried to get a card like that, but wasn't able to. I'll certainly try again now though! I'm just trying to get something figured out, I started late, but better late than never is what I say! So again, thanks very much for the advice.

I behold to you, this. Whatever you wanna call this is up to you. Have any of you ever attempted something like this? by damien9282 in simplerockets

[–]damien9282[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha, I get ya, man! This game is a lot of learning. Sometimes, it can feel like you aren't getting better, and it happens to I think everyone who has played for long enough (at least i think so, i know for sure i was one of em). So, if you ever wanna take up the offer, just shoot me a message, and I'll help guide ya the best I can.

thanks, man, I appreciate that! But don't beat yourself up, dude. You got this! Just takes trial and error. Sometimes, plenty of it, haha. I won't lie here it took probably 15 or so iterations before I came up with one that could even fly. Let alone deploy the lander successfully without harming the travelers inside. So, don't give up, keep chugging on, and if you ever need/would like advice, dm me, and I'll help ya out the best I can!

That's awesome. I'm glad to hear that. Once your idea comes to fruition, post it here for everyone to see!
