Yes, i know its rather plain. I spent more time on shading rather than design.
Also, I am not an artist, I never took more than the very basic art classes provided at grade school. I'll try a whole new design, and leave the shading until I'm finished with the basics. Thank you for your criticism, glad to know theres people on algobox that know what the're talking about.
To make it more powerful just increase the drives strength, then it can go up a 30 degree plane. I tested it a while ago, but i didnt upload it again yet.
As for the bullets, i could easily change the color, and making them bigger wont be too hard. I could even make more bullets if firepower is that important. ill get working on it
this is pretty much mr happybox's scene. looks to me you copied the spawning part and made your own piston. one of the main rules on algobox is to give credit where credit is due, cite your sources.

I know, but i was playing around with this linkage when i thought to make it, and it works pretty well, so i adjusted the design of the box instead of the mechanism.
the propeller is balanced at its center of gravity, thats not the problem. you can make the springs stronger or set the damping lower and it goes faster, but then the pistons get out of place. Also, i think your confusing rpm with rad/s. one rotation it equal to 2pi radians, and after the units conversion, my 96 rad/s is equal to around 920 rpm, which is plenty fast enough to power a small biplane, just not a heavy fighter plane. Propeller speeds on real airplanes are limited to somewhere around 2500 rpm, because if the propeller breaks the sound barrier, all sorts of problems occur. You should do your homework before talking trash about other peoples scenes.
@ Gear97
go ahead theres not much i would use it for, if i made whole machine with stuff like this i think my computer would implode and explode all at once, as i only have like 512 megabytes RAM.
