FlyCraft game - exclusive game for PB (from the developers who broght us Pop Corny)
Hmm, I've tried such a craft a long time ago. It's good for about 350cm. Box with 4 rockets.
No way it'll do 3500cm, it just doesn't have the thrust!
I'm not saying my craft is the slickest but it uses all 5 rockets and 3 soda cans with optimal thrust and can only make 2099cm.
I'm curious if you've found a bug. It's gonna take a good 30 secs of flight to get to 3500cm, are you finding after firing 4 rockets you get above first cloud and bang you hit 3500cm almost instantly?
I'm happy to be proven wrong though. If anyone can get that model you've posted flying 3000+ cm I'll be amazed! And I'll expect a screen cap at 3000cm still in flight clearly showing this magic flying coffin lol

Well I solute you then. 3500cm to me with 4 rockets is impossible. The fact you've managed it and no one is close is mighty impressive.
I've played this game a lot and my best calculation based on lift vs thrust put it slightly beyond what I'm currently getting. But then your nearly double that, so well done.

Well I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seem it with my own eyes.
Still no idea how you get sufficient thrust for altitude and speed for more than 2000ish cm. especially with only 4 rockets.

I've been trailing your craft design, can't get it over 500ish cm. No problem getting altitude but you then don't have sufficient thrust for a long run. Just doesn't make sense.
When did you update your PB?
Only asking because I think the current fly craft version feels a little slower than last version. Can't really explain in, I'm now starting to think maybe my version of the game might be a little buggy. Lol not just making excuses.
On that note has anyone noticed when you go back to edit screen after a flight mine jumps about a lot and sometimes gets screen tearing. No one else seems to have mentioned it which is what's making me think it maybe didn't install quite perfect.
Question is, if I uninstall do I have to pay again to install it? I know with Android/IOS you can download again free as you've already paid.

Lol I'm officially a dinosaur! Bumped down to 3rd. Won't be long until I slip further down.
I had a loo at borceg design, I tried the actual design and its pretty easy to copy and fly, but I just can't get it beyond 300-ish cm. I build a variation which is good for about 900, but with 4 rockets its not got enough thrust.
Went back to my original design and increased my distance by 10cm, but its done at that. Need to have a real rethink. Probably down development got a couple of days, try to forget old design, I think it's holding me back.

Well that it ripped and reinstalled!
Be a while until I'm fighting at the front again. Starting with nothing, 1 rocket, 1 soda can and a prop lol! 115cm here I come lol

Well I'm back up to my 2100cm distance. Absolutely no chance my i'll get further.
Tried borcegs craft again, he's done really well to get it to fly so "far", although I think far is a stretch, I think there is an altitude bug that is giving big distance when it's actually measuring height. Can't currently prove it though, just a hypothesis based on a few things roughly.
1. Borcegs craft has next to no lateral thrust.
2. When gaining altitude at big heights I think the game is giving 100cm for every second of flight so long as you have a little lateral thust. Meaning you just have to stay in the air for as long as possible.
3. After 1000-ish cm there are no more big clouds, but borceg is Landing on a big one (when he says he's hitting a wall). But the pics don't show any bounce back as if he's hit a wall.
4. If you hit a cloud Herbie can continue his flight at a greatly depleted speed but he still gains 100cm a sec until a part of the craft hits the ground.
Think the game developer will need to check the game design and report back.
Doesn't take anything away from Borcegs achievement! His record is going to stand for a long time I think, probably longer than my last one lasted. :)

Been testing more and I still can't see how it can travel more than 5-600cm. It's too heavy for its construction. I've recorded a flight with borcegs design, maybe he can point out where I've gone wrong. I've also build and tested a streamlined version of his craft and even that only flies a bit further.
In the process if rebuilding my old wall smasher from a pic I took. Once I've got it to its max distance I'll record it too and post the whole lot up here for comments.
