London Bridge is Burning Down

I'm saying nothing. Just take a look at this track:

:huh:

LondonBridge.trk

What I like about that track; nice smooth flying, in trim, in control, no bumps.

What I dont like about that track..Well thats obvious.

What I think the reason for that effect is:

You are not flying according to real life procedures! If you dont fly accoding to real life procedures then there may be unpredictable results!... Everyone knows they drive on the right over there!

And no Autopilot :P

Excellent find MeerCaT - at first I thought, hell that bridge is loooong.......then you turned about and I had a good chuckle. On the debrief it actually indicates that you damaged the bridge with the Kamov - must register as you rode over.

Again - Jolly Good :)

And no Autopilot :P

Exactly!

Same thing happens if you land a bit rough on top of tower blocks.

Well I wouldn't know about that. Rough landings aren't my thing! :)

(Just kidding. I'm still very much a rookie virtual-pilot)

Yeah let's not hijack this thread with autopilot/T-word stuff, but an interesting point to note is how I activated Flight Director mode for this entire shenanigans. As you'll see in the "Don't mention..." thread, I pointed out that the FD mode is my preferred flight mode for acrobatics and arzing about.

I agree with your point about 'real life procedures'. Of course there is very little legitimate reason for a helicopter to be driving along a public road. But on the flip side, since this is a heavily physics-based (and pretty accurately modelled) simulator I would argue that the accuracy of its physics model is a bit weak in this area.

On yet another tangent, has anyone else noticed how this world consists entirely of single track roads?

I don't recall ever seeing a road that could take more than one vehicle side-by-side.

Just a thought.

I've spotted different sizes. When we get Nevada we're looking at 6 lanes judging by the screenshots. YEAH. In BS1 they were pretty bad though.

Oooh shiny!

I think I spot a bloom effect. Is that coming in an update?

Is that part of the Nevada map or current map.

Pretty sure that's current BS2. Definitely Causcaus though.

BS2 Instant Action mission: Sukhumi Free-Flight.

Pretty much ALL the roads are single track where I live.

Meercat have a read of the APFD logic thread, some good discussion on there about that FD/AP stuff.

Great stuff, MeerCaT! :lol:
