Mission 2 Fuselage and Drop Tanks Empty

[AlaskanGrizzly]

I just flew mission 2 and realized after takeoff that the fuselage tank and both drop tanks were empty. I ended up having plenty of fuel for the mission anyway. I am not sure if that is the case for the other missions yet.

 

I am really enjoying the campaign and the historical details you have included, especially the briefings.

Hi there,

 

Thank you for the kind words! I gave it all I had in order to make it as immersive as possible. I hope you'll have a blast flying the rest of the missions.

 

As for the tanks, it was a shock for me too after trying it yesterday. Apparently it's not campaign related - I created a blank mission with a P-51 D-25, 90% fuel + drop tanks. The fuselage tank was empty and so were the drop tanks. I reported the issue here:

(un)fortunately Berlin is not on the map, so these missions are no 6-7 hour escort jobs ;)

Oh good. I thought I had done something horribly wrong with the drop tanks and was wondering why the engine was sputtering and dying when selecting them. I just changed back to wing tanks and got on with the job. Plenty of fuel to get home even without the drop tanks.

just started this campaign and have same exact problem in latest open beta. Was there a fix?

No, it's an issue with the new P-51. It's been reported though.

Fuselage and drop tanks still not working as of 9 Mar 19.

I know, hoping for a quick fix - luckily there's enough fuel in the wing tanks to last every mission.

Just came across the same issue. This feature used to work, i cant believe they are taking so long to fix the P51, especially since they re-released a video promoting it again.

Man anybody have any insight to when we can expect to have a fix for this? Post Damage model release?

I have no idea,I don't have any control nor overview, it's not related to the campaign but the P-51. I'm keeping my fingerst crossed though. Fortunately the campaign is still playable, the missions aren't that long.

Sorry for posting in your campaign thread, but trying to get as much visibility on this but may bring an answer lol. I’m excited to fly your campaigns fully when this cool damage model comes out. Limping home a shot up war bird will be fun:thumbup:
