Dodo-Plane Contest

Hello Homebrewers!
We've got a contest lined up for you guys once again. The Dodo-Plane Challenge!


You'll be building planes, but there's a catch: Your vehicle must be powered by wheels and nothing else!
That's right. No propellers, no jets, no rockets. Just good old-fashioned rubber to the road, and to add to the challenge; no infinite fuel or power either. What motor you use to power these wheels is up to you. (Also don't detach bits of your vehicle! The whole craft has got to stay together and fly or it doesn't count!)

What we want is a vehicle that picks up speed on the ground using wheels only, which can then take off and fly controllably (and ideally land too), but above all we want to see creativity!
This contest isn't a serious competition, its about having fun on a challenging build and sharing the creativity, so in the spirit of the challenge we would appreciate it if your vehicle didn't exploit any workarounds or particularly wonky game mechanics.

Amphibians would be cool to see too, so long as any water thrust method doesn't boost them in the air. (kudos if you can find a way to power your boat with wheels)

The contest begins now and will end November 11th. So get building! You've not got long! We plan to host a stream at the end of the event as well, so stay tuned and check the Homebrew Discord for more details!

Natafish over and out.

Game update26 May 20202020 Hotfix 11Another hotfix is out... This one contains improvements for what was released in Hotfix 9 (smooth spawning) Overall smooth spawning will make the game more stable. It loads the vehicles and world assets in a way that guarantees no lag spikes will occur. This only applies to vehicles spawned from other players and world assets that stream in as you move. We have done extensive testing for this o…Game update14 Apr 2020Emergency Patch!We've pushed an emergency patch to hopefully fix the tuner issues people have been facing introduced in the latest patch. We're not 100% certain this stops the bug from happening, but we've not encountered it happening again. So please make sure to update your game as soon as possible. Sorry again for any inconvenience this bug may have caused. Version 15.1 - 637224919994658326Community14 Apr 2020More reports on properties disappearingWe have had more reports on properties disappearing. More testing pointed out, this is a double layered bug. We found that it has something to do with building whilst in multiplayer. for now, build in single player, and save new copies of your vehicle to be safe! We are getting to the bottom of this issue, we will keep you posted on steam and discord.
