Yeah so it's a plane.

NOTES:
Keybinding is NON SPECIFIC! This will work for any region on any control config; just use fire and sharpaim for your weaponry, and U/D/L/R for movement and throttle. -now true for everything, mouse users can use the buy menu key
Don't crash into ground at low speeds. It's a bug I need to work on. - fixed
Don't get hit by high mass or high velocity ♥♥♥♥, it tends to throw off flying, which can be good for realism but bad for flying.
Yes, the offsets are bad. Try and find where they even are in the code, and if you succeed at that I'll let you try to fix them. Believe me, I've been at that for a while.
SFX isn't great, but it's decent. So sue me.
It's not quite impossible, but it is damn hard to auto scuttle. Just don't fly upside down for a really long time and you'll be just fine.
The plane is entirely capable of going through bunker bits if given adequate turning room (and sufficient pilot skill).
DO NOT DO NOT EXPECT THIS TO FUNCTION AS A CARGO CARRIER. It has no doors; you're just wasting your money. Unless you load it with bombs, in which case you'll end up with an even more satisfying kamikaze explosion.
It's really damn fun to play with, if I do say so myself.

CREDITATION:
ThunderToes for spriting gibs
The Mind for technically providing the .rte basis (not that I used any of his code)
TheLastBanana and Daman for some lua help
Mail2345 for various lua help, esp. ground crashing

edit: well specifically the gifs p3lb0x provided (as well as one of my own) (note: these are all outdated weapon effects, it looks much much better now)

HELL HELL HELL YES

One thing I recommend: take away that wheel on the back of the sprite. It sticks out, you know?

Great fun. Love it. Sometimes after getting injured, the gun will shoot the plane. Otherwise A++ job see me after class for special xxxtra credit oral exam

If it goes too fast, it shoots itself.

I'm pretty sure that rule applies to real life, too.

Once again problems with real offsets versus lua-fied offsets but hey, working now.

Now we need an effective SAM or Flak turret to shoot the damn things out of the air.

I want a plane mission. Possibly having to shoot down slow moving bombers with auto turrets before they leave the map.

Edit: If you really want a good kamikaze, just fill it with particle accelerator bombs(Ballistic Weapons Mod). Beware, it crashes somewhere between 99 and 100% of the time and lags more then the ypsilon cannon going off.
