All levels F4F
The Pod Bomber is a 360 degree killing machine. Newly recalibrated for perfected handling, the Pod Bomber utilizes a gyroscope and a system of springs in a double ring frame. This gyroscope system allows for auto-leveling in free-fall. The Pod Bomber comes equipped with two sets of thrusters. The primary thrusters expand and retract on pistons for greater control without losing the ability to fly in small spaces. The secondary thrusters are top-mounted and are used to flip the Pod Bomber or stop an upside-down descent. The Pod Bomber fires missiles at a high rate of speed from two bottom-mounted legs, which also act as shields if the missiles are fired too close to an object.

So far there are four levels, each with different variations on the Pod Bomber. Two of these are flight trainers. Two are time trial shooters. More flight trainers to come. Links below:

Hi Luke.

ONE word to start with.....HARD...no make that TWO words TOO HARD!!
Youve basically made a lbp1 flying machine in lbp2. I must have spent 40 hours making a self leveling space ship in lbp1, and it was never good enough for use in a level because rockets just arent a good way to make something fly. K, I get you want to make something chalenging, so I'll go with the idea you want to stick with the flying machine youve built.....but it needs stabalisers, A gyro that kicks in on a tilt sessor could make it a bit more fun to fly. I tried quite a number of times, knowing that theres a knack to keeping it air borne, but just got bored with it seeming so unforgiving.

Right, basic tilt sensor: Thin layer, thin strip of something, either floaty, which is ugly, or something with a garvity set to 0 so it floats. Bolt it at the bottom of the thin strip to the ship. It will float, and pivot on the bolt at its base, always point upwards. Put a mag key on the top of it, and two mag key sensors on either side, set to negative a fare distance apart from the floating upright. play around with the settings, so the key on the floating piece doesnt swing into the detection area of the key sensors on either side until you are almost about to loose control. May need to tighten the bolt as well so it doesnt flap around, or even on a loose spring bolt.Add a gyro, and use an 'or' switch to conect the two mag sensors to the gyro...make sence?

Message me if you need more help with this.

If you could F4f my level 'house of the flying diggers BOSS FIGHT' that would be great...might give you a few ideas obout lbp2 flying machines too!


EDIT: Played it with the new edits, the anti grav switch makes it alot easier to control, but still too toooooooo difficult, Its not much of an update, and hasn't made it any easier to finish or play. You really need to consider adding a gyro to stop it just spinning upside down Any chance of that F4F?

@Shade
Just updated Pod Bomber Novice. I turned the thrusters down quite a bit and added a switch at the start for 80% antigravity. This should make the ship much easier control.
