Advanced Wing Dynamics

Description
Slightly more advanced flight dynamics for wings.

Disable the original Wings mod before enabling this one. This is an alternative option, not an add-on, and will not work if both mods are enabled.

Planes you built with DasEtwas's wings mod can still be loaded in using this mod and vice versa, but the behavior of wings is different, so there's no guarantee the planes will work as well in either mod.

If you want to know exactly what I've changed, I've bumped up the air density, but the wings now stall out if the angle of attack is too high. When stalled, wings produce less lift and more drag. There's a small transition window between unstalled and completely stalled.

Thanks to DasEtwas for letting me use and modify his code, and for making the original wings mod.

i love it so much
Fixline not found 9 Mar @ 1:56am 
if i fly fast (200 km/h new legend speedometer) it starts shaking for some reason, plane has no pistons or bearings. how to fix this?

@controversy that's more of a scrap mechanic engine thing, add two propellers spinning in opposite directions, make sure they're different kinds of propellers meant for spinning in different directions or else you wont move at all.

if it is possible could please add ground effect it would be cool to make an ekranoplan.

hey, can i ask you to add something that fixes a problem thats been in this mod since it was made?
all engines in the game have WAY too much torque, to the point that if you try to make a single propeller plane, the torque is way too much and it spins like a beyblade in the air.
can you make a specific plane engine which has more speed but less torque? much much less torque?

@Another Commie Not really. This version of the mod ups the air density, but more powerful lift comes at the cost of runaway oscillations happening at lower speeds. If I knew what the difference was between smooth flight and oscillation, I might be able to change the script to dampen it, but I can't think of a good place to start. Your best bet is either to make slower aircraft, use smaller, closer wings, or use the original mod.

Whenever I make a jet fly at high speeds (170KMPH+ using new legends mod speedometer) my aircraft starts rolling left and right very quickly until I slow down. I have tried everything from larger stabilizers to making my aircraft more massive. It flies fine bloew 170KMPH, but that's too slow in dogfights. Is there any way to prevent or fix this issue?
