    It has been a while since the last progress update. I was busy with a lot of things, so i didn't have much time. I started working on it again, and i have made significant progress, although not much of it is visible in pictures. The rocket is capable of flight now, and has the correct weight of the real BFR. I made a lot of adjustments to the Jbeam, and everything is tuned just about right. The only thing left to do with the Jbeam is to fix some weird ugly glitches at the bottom of the rocket by adding support nodes and beams for each engine bell. The rocket also now has a material for the heat shield, and soon i will add a material for the engines. Also, the rocket has no fire or sound for the engines, but i plan to add this in the future. Once i work out all of this stuff and when i think the mod is good quality, i will upload it to the repository. Here is a picture of the new material:

    Hey everyone, because of the rules for uploading content to the repository, i cant name it the BFR. So, i added a poll that will close in 3 days so you guys can help me decide what the name should be. Comment your suggestions if you want. :D

    Good one, i will consider this. :)

    Unfortunately that will not be possible because repo mods must not contain inappropriate content.

    So, according to some recent news about the BFR, my 3d model is now 16 meters shorter than the height of the real rocket, with my model being just over 100 meters and the real one at 116 meters. So keep in mind that this mod is no longer exactly 100% to scale.

    Looks like the name Large Interplanetary Transport For All Merchandise actually won! I honestly didn't expect that, but i think its kind of a funny name.
    Does anybody have any objections?

    I cant figure out how to delete the old poll and add a new one, so this is what i will do:
    To vote for BeamNG Eagle Rocket, rate this post "Like"
    To vote for Large Interplanetary Transport For All Merchandise, rate this post "Agree"
