@pedro16797 Yep, we have an auto fuel type now for fuel tanks. When you change an engine's fuel type it auto-updates all of its fuel tanks to match. Unfortunately, we don't plan to support different F/O ratios. Linear aerospikes are under consideration, using this as a reference.
Glad to see Overload is making its way to SR2! I'm curious: how are you going from the edited XML to actually update the part? Are you instantiating a temporary part and copying over the properties via reflection?
@swope compression ratio is the compressor's exit pressure divided by the compressor input pressure. The overall pressure is 1.5 * CompressionRatio because the bypass fan has a fan pressure ratio of 1.5.
@CRJ900Pilot lol, yep we put procedural jet engines in the rocket game instead of the plane game. Before this update, SP players mostly wanted tank parts in the plane game. Never judge a book by its cover! And when it comes to Jundroo games, never judge a game by its name...
@YuraCat We're going to start the SimplePlanes 1.8 soon. We're just trying to finish up some of the stuff we had in work with SR2 before the break. This update has taken a lot longer than anticipated!
I have a new version on the Steam beta branch if any of you want to give it a shot and let me know if you are still seeing the white screen.
@Planefun @Mod @SupremeDorian @pedro16797 @Tully2001
Thanks @WNP78, but we like to take our own dumps :D
We've attached to it with VS and checked out the callstack as well and the main thread appears to be deadlocked. We are going to submit a dump to Unity and see what they say. I do highly suspect that it's Steam hooking into the process and contributing to the deadlock. I've got a new build on the Steam beta branch that hopefully works around the issue for now.
@swope are you playing on multiple computers or always the same computer? What kind of computer are you using? Also, are you graphics drivers up to date?
Added shroud curvature and shroud/nozzle overlap settings to jet engines.
Added Deflection Angle and Deflection Speed to control surface part properties.
Added jet engine thrust reversal.
Fixed a bug where the designer would not calculate a part's CoM correctly if the part had overridden it's local CoM.
Fixed a bug where the docking missions would fail to recognize, in some circumstances, that the player had successfully docked.
Fixed a bug where rocket engines and jet engines would work when underwater. Fixed a bug where rocket engines where misreporting their fuel usage when not at 100% throttle.
Fixed a bug where the volume of a fuel tank was not affected by its corner radiuses.
Yep, it was a website glitch I introduced with the update yesterday. I fixed it as soon as I could, but there was a little window of time where unlisted crafts were visible on player's profiles just here on SimpleRockets.com. It didn't affect SimplePlanes.com. Sorry about that. @Tully2001 @tsampoy
@MrMiner101 We are releasing on mobile next year. Sadly, I can't be more specific than that. The last time I tried to make guesses about our schedule, I ended up on camera eating black licorice! Never again!
@AnotherFireFox We changed the density after that comment. Density of our RP-1 now includes a ratio of 2.56 units of LOX to 1 unit of RP1, which puts it at 1.1kg/L.
I am currently working on adding Jet Engines, so I'll need to add a new fuel for that. To avoid confusion, I'm thinking about adding a new fuel type called Jet Fuel and renaming RP-1 to Rocket Fuel.
Okay, new build is out (v0.6.7.2). The electric motor bug should be fixed. You may need to log out of the Steam client and log back in before it realizes there's an update.
@oDDDx This is the first I've heard of it. What issues are you having? If you submit a bug report after you have the issue, I can investigate.@mjdfx150529
@BaconAircraft We just released a new beta 0.6.7.1 and I think this is fixed. Can you check it out when you get a chance or upload this craft so I can investigate? Thanks!
@tsampoy Upvotes received during beta testing did not award any points. This was clearly stated when you accepted the invite to become a beta tester. However, any upvotes after beta testing on that same build will award you points.
I just did another update to fix an issue with symmetry parts disappearing and the staging editor not nesting parts correctly under categories. 0.6.6.1 should be live now on the Steam beta branch.
@Bmcclory Yes, we will continue to have support for the old engines....at least for now.

+5 5.8 years ago@pedro16797 @SupremeDorian @Mod Great! Thanks guys. The update is now live on Steam for everyone.
+2 5.8 years ago@Chancey21 We are planning to spend about one month on it, so as much as we can get done in that amount of time. I'd say that's a medium update.

5.8 years ago@swope Thanks for the info. Very nice PC! Let me know if you see it again after updating your drivers.
+2 5.8 years agoWas it the first time you ran the 0.6.9.x update? @Planefun
5.8 years ago@mjdfx150529 That sounds really strange. Did you notice if you had any errors in your log?

5.8 years ago@Mod thanks!
+1 5.8 years ago@weebabyseamus made SimpleAirway.
+4 5.8 years ago@AstronautPlanes @InformaticNuke
New beta is available, version 0.6.9.1:
Added jet engine thrust reversal.
Fixed a bug where the designer would not calculate a part's CoM correctly if the part had overridden it's local CoM.
Thanks for letting me know, guys! This will be fixed in the next update.
+3 5.8 years ago@swope Nope, but you can slide the compression ratio down to x1 and basically have a ramjet.
+5 5.9 years ago@Tully2001 That's it for the inlet for now, but we may add some options like the slant to all fuselage parts at some point.
+1 5.9 years ago@pedro16797 That's great! But thank @NathanMikeska for that. He did all the work on input controllers for this update.
+3 5.9 years agoThanks for letting me know! This should be working now. Let me know if you are still seeing these issues.
+2 5.9 years ago@AstronautPlanes You mean these jet engines?
+9 5.9 years ago@Batman245 Not yet. There's still a lot to do before we can start working on the mobile version.
+5 5.9 years agoCan you email us your log file at games@jundroo.com? You can find it here:

5.9 years ago@MyMessage That's great! Thanks!
+2 5.9 years agoWe just released a new update, version 0.6.8.1. I tweaked the Flight Tutorial a bit. So, if anyone wants to give that a shot, that would be great!

5.9 years agoThanks @AstronautPlanes! We are slinging as much code as we can!
+2 5.9 years agoI'm sorry about that. I haven't been through the new items for a couple of weeks now. I'll try and get those approved today.
+4 5.9 years ago@deusalgor is probably right. Check your command pod/chip has no rotation. If that's not it, then upload a bug report and we can take a look at it.
