Airbus A380-800

can you make an unfurnished version?

The Planet-based Version is now online!

nice plane though

The wheels sort of just smash into the ground lol

Can I use on planets?

why ion thrusters?

To finish this post (which became way too long so I had to cut it in 3 pieces as one post is limited to 1000 letters - sorry guys :D ) let me just say that we are currently working on new stuff and we are exploring planets and all the new possibilities ourselves. When we found a satisfying way of building cool new stuff you will find it in the workshop, soon!
Thanks again for your feedback - without that, we dont know what you like or dont like!
So keep us telling what you think of our creations and never stop exploring!

Second: I believe aerodynamics will definitely come to Space Engineers, soon. We had space, later oxygen, now planets. The planets have an atmosphere and your hydro and ion thrusters have different power outputs depending on your height. So drag - and lift - will for sure play a role in future.
Another point is that our ships were weightless in space. So our "landings" with artificial masses and gravity generators were no problem. Now the whole weight acts on our planes which will get us into trouble regarding the landing gear, the available thrust, the inside structure of the planes and so on.
We need a lot of time building one ship as we dont have a lot of time but still test every ship a lot. It really needs to be as good as we can. And putting a mod into this will not solve all problems - that is not "perfect enough" for us. As I am sure that aerodynamics will come, we will rebuild our most popular planes. But these are major modifications...and they take time ;)

Hey Woolies, first of all thank you for your feedback! This is very important to us.
Well when we started building stuff (like our Kennedy Space Center - aka STS Project) we already found a lot of Space Shuttles, Rockets and Space Stations in the workshop - but most of them were modded with different thrusters, gauges, signs, cockpits etc etc or in an inappropriate size. At that point we said that we want to use no mods but still build the ships as accurate as possible - with mods you can basically do everything - without them we had to improvise a lot. That was our personal challenge and fun as we really had to think of a possible solutions without just modding it - and that was far before the time that we uploaded our projects (The first big thing was the STS and it took about half a year).
So now we still just do it the same way. I am just not used to build with mods. I dont like the idea. But this is my personal opinion - nevertheless there are countless of awesome mods available!

well i agree with the guy saying that the Aerodynamics mod should be included into these creations, dont get me wrong these creations are great!, but not many people use space that much anymore they use the planets also if you incorperate the mod your design would become more popular as pretty much everyone uses the mod now, besides mostly everyone in the SE community has mods.

Well i hope I changed your opinion, but at the end of the day its up to you : )
