......long ago I made a plane .. I clearly got no idea about most of its scripting at that time .. now when I got rbx.Lua inside my mind I can't even find that old tutorial anymore ... I still have the old model with me so I tried to rescript it into simpler short script .. but really got no idea about it although I got it to work..

Now you heard the story help :P

Scripting planes is not a game you want to get in to, if you're trying to make them work like a seriously legit plane. Heck, I specialize on it and I'm not even in a high enough math class to be able to create planes that work correctly physics-wise.

Making the plane function with controls is the easy part. Simulating the physics is where things get complicated, especially since ROBLOX's physics engine interacts with objects as if they're in a vacuum.

I find hilarious how planes work, I also love to see how when I shoot with lag, I blow myself up. I encourage any plane maker to make rockets spawn BELOW the plane, taking the rotation into account. (Sort of what you see in movies...)

@Electric - That's because 99% of all people who make planes on here don't know what they're doing, or don't have enough skills to even program one properly. Else, they would just add a basic check system to make sure the rocket didn't hit its launcher.

But I like how I can kill me, I just don't like it spawning over me, what if a smart enemy does a backflip and goes past me, but my rocket hits me? Its ok for it to have Kill me, I just don't like INSTA Kill me.

well... since I mastered the other things thought it time to get into planes and advanced things .. I have good logic and I am good in physics and math but mixing it togother with scripting not knowing where to start is the bad point ..

I would like to find the most simple plane that I could learn the concept so I can improve myself from there.
