If it will still be compatible with old spoilers, wings, splitters, etc., which we can assume it will, then I don't see why it would break all flying mods, it might just make them fly different, like the tire physics change didn't break any tires
The reason I think it will make them not work is current planes are few and far between, and from what I understand they somewhat abuse the current aerodynamic system, in order for them to fly realistically and controllably. (I believe they have completely unrealistic lift levels, drag coefficients, etc.) All that will likely be needed to get them to work on a new system will be some tweaks of values, but plenty of flying mods, especially for flying cars, are long abandoned and will need somebody else to make them work, not the original creator.
Well, if they have unrealistic values then they may break, but I thought there were some properly made plane mods that use realistic values instead of "cheating"
Don't want to rain on anyone's parade here, but this seems to be a misunderstanding. There is no new aero model or anything along those lines.
maybe because beamng reduced a lot the air drag for the new tire system, so they (automation) probably thought that beamng was doing a whole new aero system while it was just some adjustements to compensate the new behavior of the tires
I found out by accident that ALL parts are affected by it - I accidentally set such high drag coef to a car that it couldn't move lol
This is why I quit using the forums some time ago. Anyhow, it would be quite nice to see a revamp of the K series. It has rather lacking configurations as it is and could use some more parts to make it a proper track car. Maybe it'll see some more love in the future?
I think the Pigeon is way overdue a remaster. Only a handful of configs and two engines. I think there was an April fools post about it being in the next update, but it should happen because I actually use that car quite a lot. Hopefully a micro-camper or a luxury version. The Ibishu Dove mod was quite good, but lacked polish. --- Post updated --- A 2dr Sunburst or hatch variant would be cool too. And diesel engines for it aswell
