Hi there,
what do you think about introducing the possibility of having planes be automatically damaged when they're exceeding a certain speed? That would be a realistic thing to happen, don't you think.
Give every plane its own speed limit setting, check every n ticks if its faster than that and then damage it by maybe 1/10 of its max health every second?
Tell me what you think and if you wanna write the code yourself. Otherwise I can do that too and give it to you so you can implement it.
