The scripters would be super pissed because there is nothing left to script. |
|
|
Can someone give a link to that plane seat Animinus made? |
|
|
There will be something to script, i only agree on car and plane seats but the rest seems to lazy |
|
|
Well, why don't the scripters find something else to script? |

What's so bad about having a plane that works already? |
|
|
The Plane Seat would make it easier and less tedious to make planes, thats what I think. |

There are already fifty thousand planes in free models. Who needs to make them with a PERFECTLY-WORKING SCRIPT?
Also, the planes we have now have stunts, invisibility cloaks, and weapons. Can a PlaneSeat DO A BARREL ROLL?
I think not.

Rational people vote against!
(of course, if ROBLOX DID take it that way, then we'd have PlaneSeats in no time.) |

For me there should be plane seats that you can activate some types like cloak |

Stop asking to make plane and all those types of seats! You can make them just by putting a brick on your legs after you sit on the Vehicle Seat! |

To TyphoonII: If they did it right, it could. |

Yes, it is possible to make a WASD-controlled plane with the current vehicle seat.
1. Vehicle seats work the same way as the normal seats that were around before them, which were used with planes, except for the fact that it drives wheels. If you take a plane model and replace the Seat in it with a VehicleSeat and name it Seat and put it as a child of the same model as the original Seat, the plane should work in the same way that it did before (except that you see a speed indicator and it affects the camera's behaviour).
2. It is now possible to detect when W, A, S, or D (or the arrow keys) are being held down by two properties in the VehicleSeat (Steer, Throttle). Make a script in the plane itself that detects these values and makes the plane fly according to them.
Therefore, you can use the vehicle seat to make a plane that needs no tool.
Here are some ideas for controls:
W - forward thrust (plane falls unless forward thrust being applied)
A and D - steer
S - reverse thrust (to help in landing)
W - start engine / boosters (normal thrusters used when engine is on and not boosting)
A and D - steer
S - stop engine, land
or even:
W - fire weapons
A and D - steer
S - toggle engine (when it detects throttle changed and throttle == -1 [meaning the key was just pressed], it will toggle)
Of course, if you need actions more complicated than this, you would still need the tool for the additional actions (for example, I doubt that you would be able to fly the plane with my examples because you don't get any up/down)
Here is an example where you can control the plane without a plane tool almost entirely.
W - pitch up
A and D - steer
S - pitch down
and then the plane tool controls the engine and weapons.
This is the best you can do until an actual plane seat is available.
And, even if plane seats were made, scripts would still be used as the seat would only be able to go so far (ingenious actions would probably require a tool, and likely even weapons - the plane seat would probably only cover the actual control of the plane). |

That's really cool, but could you tell me where I can find such scripts? |
|
|
I haven't heard any official news on the plane seat. All they've been making right now is stupid overpriced boring hats and gear. |

agreed meelo then everyone could make planes even though i cant >:( any way but then planes could fire guns and it would be very hard to control |

Alright, let's look at it this way. People are taking scripting way to seriously. You're reason is because it will take away all the popularity from scripters? Well it won't! There will still be plenty of things to script! You could create guns to use on cars and planes with the seat for example. And what's wrong with making plane building more accessable? Not everyone wants to take or has the time to learn how to build and script planes through the tedious process. I decided instead of using a seperate plane seat, it could use special wing bricks which would be added on to the vehicle to let it fly. I think it could work if they did it right. It could be like this:
W:Start engine
(In flight mode)
S:pull up
W:tilt down
A:Move left
D:Move right
Q: Roll left
E: Roll Right
Shift: Stop engine
So people, stop acting like plane seats are the only thing scripters have left! |

I made one, but I agree they should be made.Mine didnt lag.Anyway I use a carseat for way more then vechiles.I used one to make a gui contolledrc car, a cannon, a plane seat and a rocket ship. |
