thrustvector Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 yep not working a known bug, hopefully fixed at some point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AleCisla Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 Hi there, I bought the P51 a while ago and noticed this problem straight away, as I was trying to set up a long range escort mission on the Caucasus. Fuselage tank never fills up, drop tanks when selected don't work, and if you request refuel on the ground, the sound of refueling just goes on forever...and ever... and if you start running you hear, "HEY WHAT YOU DOING?" ... "I HAVEN'T FINISHED FILLING UP YOUR TANK FOREVER, COME BACK HERE!!!" lol (just kidding) I hope they fix this soon, as well as the missing texture at the back of the seat, which in my case, misteriously, appears sometimes in some missions and disappears in others...?! Doesn't make sense. Regards; Alex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statrekmike Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 With the upcoming release of the 190-A8 and the inevitable attention that will fall on the WWII stuff as a result, where do we stand on this bug? I mean, it may not be a HUGE deal but it is one of those things that can certainly get in the way (especially when rearming/refueling). Any update on where we are at on this?

BuzzU Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Kind of takes away one of the advantages of the P-51. Long range. It should have been fixed a long time ago. Buzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saburo_cz Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 External tanks have not worked yet, but rear fuel tank is functional. At least one or two updates back.

Rolds Posted December 30, 2019 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Dec 29 in open beta, still appears that the drop tanks cannot be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saburo_cz Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 External fuel tanks are functional in both, Beta and Stable version. When external fuel tank is selected as a source, is necessary to move throttle to at least 1500 RPM for while when fuel pressure is falling and after that fuel pressure will remain sufficient. Without this, fuel pressure will drop to 0 PSI and engine will stop.

This is reason why ext. fuel tanks are connected with two pipes, one for fuel goes out and secont for pressured air goes in. WHAT?! :shocking: Not 75 galls which we have in game, they were from metal, only 108 galls from UK production were from paper...

LOL are you trying to make some kind of remark about the Brits? :D JK I've always wondered how much allu the US dropped over Germany in the form of wing-tanks, and whether the Germans has a program to collect them for recycling (I'm sure they actually did, but probably coupled with collecting all shot-down aircraft). Anyway, getting hit on the head by a paper tank probably hurts less... ♬Let's not be beastly to the Germans ♪ ... When you hit the wrong button on take-off System Specs.

-0303- Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 (edited) No bug (for BigNewy, Nineline). I’ll have to test it again, in my case, the needle was stuck at 40 gallons indicated for well over 10 minutes I saw something similar. I decided I imagined it and dismissed it. Did a test: Film. Spawn RWY Batumi. 50 knot (25 m/s) headwind 130', 20'C. Radiators fully open. MP 25 (no overheating). Accelerated time 50x. Video 50x for total 2500x. Looks normal continuous consumption. So I did imagine it.
