Aerodynamics

Yes thats right, Aerodynamics in GearBlocks is here! Finally, you can build planes, helicopters, spoilers on cars and whatever you wish!
Maybe you want to build a plane that controls pitch by bending its entire fuselage?
Or add downforce on your car?
This addon lets you do that, and so much more!



- Calculates both drag and lift!
- Calculates Angle of Attack (AoA) To change the total lift!
- Simulates Air compression! (The faster you move, the harder it is to change direction)
- Even features wind! You can choose wind Strength&Direction!
- Size of object changes lift and drag
- Slider to sacrifice accuracy for performance, or vice versa!
- Comes with a UI to change the drag and lift efficiency, and manually include/exclude objects!
- Comes with a neat debug option to display the affected/unaffected objects!
- Locally calculated forces, meaning you can fly upside down and still have accurate physics!
- Several Objects to select from!



- NOTE! - CLICK THE SCAN BUTTON WHEN YOU RESIZE OBJECTS / ADD NEW ONES, AERO WILL BE INACCURATE/NOT WORK ELSEWISE!

- Also please note that the includer only allows for useage of objects that are manually whitelisted by me! you cant add just anything, but ill be extending the whitelist soon enough.



IF You experience a control surface on a plane spazzing (especially at higher speeds) You can try increasing the Accuracy slider, or lowering the efficiency




KNOWN ISSUES!
- Optimization, it can suck up alot of FPS during big builds, but i am actively working on this issue.
- Wind, It doesn’t act on objects in their correct direction, except for plates
- Only static wind, Wind doesn’t dynamically change direction, but i’ll add this soon.
- Propellers do not really work that well, sadly i know, but i am trying to fix this ASAP, with the planned feature.
- Limited selection, but i am working on adding more!

If you encounter any issues or questions about it, either if its bugs or just opinions/ideas, please dont hesistate to leave a comment!
