Argument 0027 is controlled by the country the aircraft is assigned to during mission load.

Problem is Virtual Pilots take that "Lore" as Law, When most of those stories are exaggerated stories exchanged between pilots that eventually were published in writing or video otherwise, without a shred of evidence to prove the scenario actually happened, despite the laws of physics, 20 Gs would kill anyone and the wing box of the tomcat would be destroyed, causing both wings to detach. I was in the hanger for most of the 90s, hung out with pilots, sat in tomcat pits as they told me stories, as a teen, it was cool to hear them, as an adult that knows more about aeronautics and physics, they are complete bull hardy. Then again, so where the stories anyone told us growing up..

[RESOLVED] Missing Canopy Lightning Strips
SkateZilla replied to Dreams's topic in Bugs and Problems
They maybe concealled by illusion, as they'd be about the same position as the farther canopy rail, therefore "Hidden" at that angle. I can definately barely make out the RIO Rail. I can assure you they are there though. -
Passing Memtest86 when nothing else is running doesnt show if there is a power problem. You need to run a Memory Test in windows, while running a CPU Test to draw power from the board. You really shouldnt have any issues with IMC Voltage problems running only 2 sticks. Make sure you have the correct XMP Profile set for the sticks as well.

The Updater code is done, but not integrated due to hosting issues / terms, I've lost 3 different webhost provider accounts under terms that they do not allow App Deployments from their webservers (apparently it's a big thing in some countries (sus companies hosting fake apps w/ virus')), so a lot of hosting companies shut down accounts that do this. I even had a webpage on my last webhost so they would see it wasn't simply app deployment. There is automatic notification of a new version on the top of the app, I may make it clickable and have it bring users to this thread, where the app would be hosted for the time being.

Per Manual for your Mainboard:

No, Previous Version used an entorely different code path. Im tracking this as well, it appears it was unable to update and save any values according to the log file. I Hope to have a resolution soon. Edit: 7/0//23 @ 1830 EST: Log Files Provided plus a slow scan over the Import Slots 1-4, Custom 1-3 + Browse for File Import, I was able to pinpoint the problem and re-write the import function to resolve the issue. You mustve missed my 2 previous replies to you regarding these functions being broken by a null value. But the Individual Folders when deleted should goto recycle bin, backup to the set backup folder. The Source / destination is meant for copying the entire /Config Folder from one build to another, backup makes a backup and delete sends to recycle bin. However a null exception in the last few builds basically messed this entire page up.

Removing it would end requests to expand it, and also remove any issues with it being interlaced with the EFM down the road.

V1 Also had the Problem of Loading off screen due to end user monitor config changing and coordinates no longer valid. Remembering the Position is easy enough to re-enable and put an options toggle, I will add to the flow board. A Mod Manager was part of the Alpha, but it was not in a state that was usable and holding up the release so it was removed.

but yeah, those numbers are uninstalled power plants They were tuned to 17000~ (70lbs +/- depending on revision and fuel), on F-14As
-
never said it was 2000 lbs per power plant.

F-14A (TF30-414A's) max thrust is 20,900 Each, as was TF-30-414 and TF-30-412s F-14B/D (GE F110-GE400) max thrust was 26,950. The main A/B-D Difference was no compressor stalls, better throttle response, ~60% Power Increase in Max Military Thrust, and ~30% Power Increase in Max AB. Thus the B/D Tomcat had more power in Max Military it did in the lower AB Range. Better T:W Ratio, Less use of AB in BFM and Takeoff, More Fuel, More Loiter Time.

yeah, I guess NOS button was a bad example, more like a Safety Throttle Limiter (ie STM and TCS). The System will only affect the thrust in the situations it's designed to prevent compressor stalls. so it's not really a "Boost" but more so Disabling a "Limiter" (well the system doesn't limit parsey either, it more or less engages a safety mechanism that causes a thrust penalty of up to 5%, and honestly I think the 5% is in reheat and only 2% max penalty in Military thrust. But Basically Like Turning off STM and TCS on a hot Dry Straight Race Track, vs Turning it Off on a Turning Wet Track, lol. Turning it off straight and level does nothing, turning it off in a high AoA with stop the system from engaging and thus not incur the thrust penalty under high AoA but substantially increases the risk of a compressor stall. I don't think the breaker existed to facilitate a BFM Edge, it existed as a way to disable the system / circuit had it sustained damage and needed to be shut off to safely return to base/boat. If it was designed to be disabled to give a Dogfighting edge it would have had a switch in the pilot cockpit somewhere, and not a remote breaker off to the right that neither Goose or Rooster couldn't find in a hurry if they wanted too.

As I said in the other thread..... I'd honestly rem the code/system entirely, Users got the idea that popping the breaker was equivalent to pressing the NOS or TCS Off button on a race car. (More power at the expense of stability etc). the issue here is, the over the top story in a book or video interview was over hyped to get the viewer/reader excited, I know pilots that literally laugh at this, and say they would never use such an high risk tactic, ever. Why would you risk compressor stall and losing your aircraft for a measly 2000lbs of thrust (out of a total of 41,800)(aka ~5%), when you can better manage AoA, G's, turn rate and maintain speed without any risk. If you desperately 5% more total thrust to win all your engagements, your doing something wrong.
