Frank00 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 I hope for the futur of DCS a real fuel tank manager where whe can choose the tank that we will fill or empty. It's one of the most important thing because from now whe can just choose the total quantity of fuel but for example in reality the wings tanks of a l-39 are empty for aerobatics maneuver.
ED Team BillyCrusher Posted March 31, 2016 ED Team Posted March 31, 2016 in reality the wings tanks of a l-39 are empty for aerobatics maneuver. The same in game. Default L-39 fuel amount in ME is 84% with empty wing tanks. "You become responsible, forever, for what you have tamed.” ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince.
Northstar98 Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 (edited) +1 definitely a good idea. It would also be great to have improved ground crew in other aspects as well, giving more control to the player. Your idea for fuel management would be a great idea but alongside why can't we have some other options - I'm thinking more along the lines of servicing and allowing you to change components (obviously where applicable). Similar to what A2A did with the maintenance hangar for their "Accu-Sim" titles (see between 1:44 to 4:20) [ame] [/ame] Their system allows you to change oil, propellers, canopy types, perform engine maintenance on each cylinder, and allows you to set the fuel quantity in each individual tank (though I think FSX allowed you to do that anyway). It's probably not going to come to DCS for a while but hopefully in the near future we'll get to see it someday Edited March 31, 2016 by Northstar98 Modules I own: F-14A/B, F-4E, Mi-24P, AJS 37, AV-8B N/A, F-5E-3, MiG-21bis, F-16CM, F/A-18C, Supercarrier, Mi-8MTV2, UH-1H, Mirage 2000C, FC3, MiG-15bis, Ka-50, A-10C (+ A-10C II), P-47D, P-51D, C-101, Yak-52, WWII Assets, CA, NS430, Hawk.

Would definitely be useful for various testing. Asymmetric loads, drag/performance measurment in combat conditions but with tanks retained, etc. My liveries, mods, and missions for DCS:World M-2000C English Cockpit | Extra Beacons Mod | Nav Kneeboard | Community A-4E
