Just another small request when you guys have some time. Can you increase the AI gun strafing time on ground targets. Right now, it's like a quarter second and very ineffective. Even a second would be a big improvement. Thanks!

You can always use the autopilot cheat. No shame in it.

I think there was a bit of lua scripting in there as well. I could probably rebuild it if there were any demand for it.

It appears visually to return to neutral but doesn't act so.

confirmed. when I open the guard, the air brake causes a pitch up moment. I did find a small bug while testing this though.:P If you open the guard and use the emergency trim nose down for example and close the guard without returning the emergency trim switch to its centre position, the next time you open the guard, the nose will continue to trim down. Same for emergency trim up. All is fine if you remember to return the switch to its centre position.

I built a mission a few years ago like this where missile or gun hits wouldn't destroy an aircraft. It would just make them return to base. And if the player was hit, he would be asked to safe his weapons and return to base. You'd lose all your score if you fired your weapons. Also, the AI would no longer attack you once you were "dead". it was kind cool. Sadly, I lost the mission in a hard drive crash.

Do you have the space bar mapped to anything? I don't have my space bar mapped to anything and it works fine.

ED will be totally revamping the cockpit. Hopefully this year.

This is related to something I've noticed during shut down. The hydraulic pressure never seems to deplete like it used to with the SFM. If you extend and retract the air brake, the pressure will go down a bit but then rebuild.

This is too rational a response from someone named Hatefury lol

I've been using a twist grip on the Huey for years and I get along fine. But sure, pedals are probably preferable.

ah, c'mon. pull the trigger. fun little module.:)

+1

+1. This has really turned me off the module because I'm more of a ground pounder.

Just like how they used to kill Me-262s. :)

Can you explain this a bit more when you have a chance? I don't really understand why the all-aspect functionality of the Aim-9M is reliant on the aircraft's systems. I thought it would be totally independent but of course I have no real idea. Thanks much.

Which 3 reds do you have? The heading flag should disappear after the 3 minute compass alignment. The nav flag should disappear once you've tuned into either a VOR or a TACAN.

ok. Gotta counter that with the C-101. :D

I think people mean to say "Thanks for the wake turbulence! A great step forward!"

Yup, seems to be some difference. Depends totally on speed, dive angle, release altitude. The screen below was done at an IAS of 250 kts, level flight, 3,000 ft. The craters on the far right were done with 70 ms spacing. The ones on the far left with 200 ms spacing.

I'm going to try it out this weekend and see what the smoke dispersion is like on the ground at different settings.

Select your BDU-33 stations. Select "RIP" mode instead of "BOMB" mode. Select ripple time.

Exactly. It's all about the type of experience you want to have. Some people are rotor heads. Some people like the war birds. Some people like the high tech stuff. And weird people like me like being the underdog in a casually-powered (to quote a Mudspike review) trainer jet like the C-101. Sure, you can do pretty much everything in an F-18 that you can in a trainer, but practicing flight fundamentals just seems more "genuine" in a trainer. Something very satisfying to me about properly setting up your NAV radios, setting up your course lines, making sure your HSI is properly aligned and your gyro erected, struggling to keep a set altitude, making sure you don't exceed engine temp. Then there's the combat part. I get a lot more of a thrill when I get a bomb delivery just right through proper speed, dive angle, and sight depression.
