Stormworks: Build and Rescue

Showcase of Components in Thales' Aviation Parts and Block Overhaul
 Denne tråd er blevet fastgjort, så den er sikkert vigtig
Thales  [udvikler] 28. juli 2021 kl. 7:52
Suggestions
Suggest new components and ideas in here.
(But I'll be conservative on adding new blocks to not increase the component count too much.)

A really useful feature would be a channel-customizable composite input on all blocks (at least the ones that use logic).

Yesterday I tried to change throttle's on/off inputs to composite but it didn't work. I don't know how to do it right now if it is even possible.

Please add the instruments in metric (m/s, m, km\h, etc)

I can't add too many of them. So I need to choose most common flight instruments which the world aviation uses.

a bike seat so you dont have what looks like a gaming seat slapped on a bike?
Tmccanna 31. juli 2021 kl. 15:34 
also what about small steam parts and nuclear parts?

Amazing mod! Could you possibly make the hit box for the narrow seat smaller? I can't fit all the instruments in my Glasair III.

I may add smaller pilot seat with low-back side and flat bottom like padded seat but character positioning specificly for bike seat may not be possible.

I haven't played with them yet. So, not likely.

Minimum 2x2x3 hitbox is required for player to have enough room without colliding with anything around when leaving the seat. However I plan to add new instrument panel(s) which has no voxel in front of the dials.

A pilot seat with a low back would be amazing. I'm currently trying to build a replica of a PBY Catalina and the pilot's seats have low backs and you crawl over them to get to the cockpit from behind. Overall I love this mod. :)

Hey there Thales, thanks for the awesome mod, now I actually have some desire to build planes. Do you think you could also overhaul the vanilla wheels so that unpowered wheels don't take so much torque to move? A big problem I've noticed in Stormworks is that, if you try build a 2-wheel drive car, the unpowered wheels act almost as if they have the brake applied. This means RWD cars are only useful for drift setups and have overall poor performance. This ruins any sort of immersion for me and many others, since many popular racecars in the real world use RWD as opposed to AWD (for example, Formula 1) because of it's simplicity and higher efficiency (less moving parts means less friction means less power loss)...

Anyway, I think you see my point. Is there any way you could fix this?

Oh, and I know you said you want to be conservative on adding new components, but if you have some extra room, adding a sort of small 1x1x1 turbine that accepts engine exhaust and outputs torque would be perfect to allow us to make actual turbocharged modular engines as opposed to making superchargers that just look like turbos. (For those who don't know, the impeller pumps that currently exist in the game act as superchargers rather than real turbochargers, since they draw power from the engine crankshaft rather than engine exhaust gases.)

I want to make something like that or modifying the existing seat.

I don't know how to remove unpowered wheel drag atm. (except wheel grip slider)
New kind of components with new features like turbocharger is probably not possible as far as I know. But if it is possible I'll definitely give it a try.

3 Wide versions of the seats? (And maybe helicopter seats)

Original seats are already 3 wide?
Helicopter seat would require different character pose that the game has not right now.

Ah also i meant as in the angled type of seat but 3 wide etc

Any chance you can make a 2x2 HUD?
