    I will, currently I'm working on the leg wings which is going pretty slow. When I'm done I'm making a green KG-7 variant. As for weapons they are all going to be warhead based, so far I have the pistol but more weapons will be on the way once the KG-6 itself is finished.

    The acutal problem with spheres as planets and such is how gravity is applied :/

    I was thinking about something like this but figured it would be too lagy due to large objects and rotors not playing nicely, How does it perform?

    it works just fine. did it as a proof of concept so it lacks some finer tuning such as the orbit more closely matching the planets rotation as well as it not have a realistic elliptical orbit. I also had to crank my draw distance to 20,000 just to be able to see the moon from the planets surface (for whatever reason the atmosphere was unrendering the moon despite how close the moon actual is).

    as far as lag I couldn't say. theres no direct connections that would cause any collisions so I would assume that if your comp can handle rendering a whole planet then your fine

    As last resort you can always just give the enemy a big fat middle finger :P

    Mech project is fucking cancelled indefinitely until the game gets to a point where every fucking wireless connection in the universe doesn't break each time the game is started up!
