[1.05b10] Broken aircraft graphics/Aircraft Model Design BP Cost

[Nachtjager]

Just starting to play around with the aircraft designer, and the amount of variables is amazing.

However creating the following aircraft created a broken graphic:

Light aircraft
Level bomber
Medium engine
Medium wing
3000L fuel tank
5000kg bomb load



Also, and this is probably more of a suggestion than a tech support issue, I feel like the model designer is a bit broken when it comes to aircraft. There's 6 different roles you can assign to a given size of airframe and it's pretty reasonable to think that I would want several light aircraft serving different roles.

With the way the model designer currently works, that would become prohibitive in BP cost very quickly as each light aircraft design pushes it upwards. I think aircraft should either be designed by role rather than size, or have the BP cost increase drastically reduced so you can reasonably produce 6 of the same airframe size in different roles, let alone wanting to re-roll a specific aircraft due to weak design scores.

Thanks! confirmed. will be fixed in beta11

Dont fret to much about the roles. No matter the role of an aircraft you can use it in any type of mission you'd like.
And in fact I hope players are not going to try to create all possible variations, as there are way to many... the idea is you are constrained and you have to make some "best bets".

Best wishes,

I get it if it's a design choice, it just felt a little bit out of order with the ground design system where despite both being 'armour' assault guns and medium tanks pull from separate model design BP pools and I figured it was worth mentioning. I suspect my feelings will change a bit when I get deeper into the tech tree given all the different airframe sizes there are anyways.

Thanks for all the quick fixes!
