SimplePlanes

🎮✈️ Welcome to the world of SimplePlanes! Get ready to unleash your inner aircraft designer and test pilot! Whether you're a beginner or a future flight engineer, here's a fun and informative step-by-step guide — now with a splash of emojis to lift your mood and your plane! 🚀🛠️

🛫 Step 1: Dive into the Hangar
Start by launching the game and getting to know the main screen. You'll see two main options: 🏗️ Build Mode and 🕹️ Fly Mode. Head straight into Build Mode, where the creative magic begins! 🎨✈️ You can start from a blank canvas or tweak an existing aircraft template. Your sky, your rules! ☁️🔧

🧱 Step 2: Build Like a Pro
Pick a fuselage base 🧩 and start attaching all the parts that make your plane fly — wings 🪽, engines 🔥, landing gear 🛞, and more! Just drag and drop each component onto your project. Pay close attention to the part descriptions 📋 — they tell you how each part affects speed, control, and performance. Knowledge is lift! 📚🛫

⚖️ Step 3: Balance Is Key
Before you take your winged masterpiece to the skies 🌤️, make sure it's balanced. Use the in-game indicators:
- Center of Mass ⚖️
- Center of Lift 🌀
- Center of Thrust 💥
These help you ensure your aircraft is stable and won’t nosedive on takeoff! 🛑🛬 A well-balanced plane is a happy plane. 😊✈️

🧪 Step 4: Time for a Test Flight
Switch to Fly Mode 🛫 and take your plane for a spin! 🎮 Watch for signs of wobble, stall, or poor turning. If something feels off, no worries! Hit pause ⏸️, jump back into Build Mode, and make those necessary tweaks. Build ➡️ Test ➡️ Repeat. That’s how legends are made! 💪🛠️

🎮 Step 5: Learn to Fly
Now it’s time to become the pilot of your dreams 🧑‍✈️. Get comfy with the controls — most people use their device’s tilt sensor 📱 or touch joysticks 🎮 to steer, throttle, and roll. Practice taking off like a pro 🚀, cruising through the air like a boss ☁️, and landing like a feather 🛬.

🏁 Step 6: Take on the Missions
Feeling confident? 🎯 Challenge yourself with fun and tricky missions! From precision landings 🛩️ to daring obstacle courses 🎢, your flying and designing skills will be put to the ultimate test. Each mission teaches you more about aerodynamics and creative problem-solving. 💡🎖️

🔁 Step 7: Innovate and Elevate
SimplePlanes is all about trial, error, and imagination 🌈. Don’t be afraid to experiment with wild designs — how about a flying boat? 🛶✈️ Or a jet-powered banana? 🍌🚀 Use every flight as feedback and tinker your way to brilliance. The sky isn’t the limit — it’s just the beginning! 🌌👨‍🔬
