Dorito(upgraded) vs F-10 Striker

The Dorito(upgrade) vs HEI-45: HEI and Dorito both has poor missile ejection settings that cause them to occasionally blow themselves up.

Won't do best out of 3 because this isn't a tournament. Don't have the patience for that.

Triops says each plane can have up to 6 missiles between Sidewinders and AMRAAMs

What was the problem and how did you fix it?

Which one is the fixed version? I downloaded it again from the link you posted.

F-10 Striker vs MicroAIII

The Dorito vs F-10 Striker

They are firing missiles, see AF-2 Badger vs the Dorito video, the Badger was getting missile warnings.

Micro AIII, vs ADFX-01 Morgan @dundun92 Next one will be up later, gotta go do something else.

@aleksey444 While Dorito and Morgan aren't modeled after real world planes, their outstanding features have real-world precedents, like vertically stacked engines on the English Electric Lightning, or mid-wing engine pods on the SR-71. The AF-2's wing shape looks like the Hopeless Diamond, which is good, but its dragster styled rear spoiler doesn't seem to have a real world precedent. I did run your plane, but I just don't want the main planes in this thread to wind up on a slippery slope like in the other thread. AF-2 Badger vs the Dorito

Round 2: Skip to 1:15 for Action

Annnd we in interrupt our regular programming to bring you: Alpha vs Super Dreadnought, Round 1: Fight Uploaded without edit, skip to 1:20 for action. Coming up next, Round two, from the Super Dreadnought's perspective

@TheLionsBite, let's go!

Yes, but how about 2v2? 1v1 is a bit iffy sometimes, the AI often derps out.

@TheLionsBite Mine is the Falken, in the most recent episode. It's rather poorly tuned, because my main craft was having problems around the submission deadline I send in an old plane. But the main craft is done now, and it beats every craft I tested it against. JRA did say something about doing PFC, but it'll probably be 2-3 months away. How about this? Try to beat my craft. If you can beat mine, then keep yours a secret. If my craft wins, then you let me a look at your craft. I'm pretty confident about mine, I think seeing yours won't make me change anything. I particularly want to test against the Alpha though. Here's my craft: https://kerbalx.com/goduranus/P-1187-Super-Dreadnought or https://kerbal.curseforge.com/projects/ultimate-jet-fighter-p-1187-super-dreadnought

@TheLionsBite, would you like a special challenge, with what you will send in for PFC4 against my plane for PFC4? I will also reveal my plane design to you too, of-course.

@TheLionsBite, Edit: Oh your plane is Panthero Leo Triop is away so I'm taking over for him temporarily, so you can send me the plane in a PM if you like.

@TheLionsBiteWhich one is it? You can send me the link in a PM. @aleksey444 that one is pushing the limits of the original rule where it says the craft should look like a plane. It looks like an A-wing, is there a real world plane that has a similar configuration, if not then maybe @Triop can pitch in?

@StupidAndy only stock and BDA, and look like a reasonable plane. ADFX-01 Morgan vs MicroAll, with MicroAll and Morgan each scoring a missile kill, the final victory was decided in a gun duel with the Morgan coming on top

MicroAll cripple or destroy all Doritoes, but in their moment of flawless victory a stray missile managed to knock out a MicroAll, bringing the score to 2-0

Micro A vs the Dorito, very short match with many missile kills. A single Micro A faced a Dorito at the end, with the Dorito finishing the match with a gun kill.

@SuicidalInsanity I suspect it has something to do with the order that craft positions and orientations are calculated, maybe sometimes the craft firing the laser is updated before the targeted, so by the time the laser fires the target has already moved forward by one frame's distance. This would be consistent with my suspicion that crafts closer to the camera are updated first. It probably affects cannons as well, but cannons' inaccuracy makes this less sever of a problem. @KenjiKrafts Yes, but make sure it has BD Armory Flight Computer and Weapons Manager setup like in the thread's opening post.

Youtube crashed when I was adding music, so here's Solarius vs The Dorito without music. Something I noticed was that lasers fired by the plane you're watching is impotent, consistently lagging behind the target, but lasers fired by the planes you're not watching are very accurate.

Structural plates is the strongest part in the game, lasers will destroy most wings or aerodynamic parts in about 1 seconds from 500m. Also my observations of the Solarius, it was able to keep its fixed forward laser on target for 5 seconds at a time.
