EQ Refueling Pod & Tanking options

[Foogle]

Now that the F1 has been released, I tested the F1EQ to see if it could fill the role of a tanker as it did during the Iran - Iraq War, the ability is missing.

Please add both the pod, and the AI requirements to allow for the EQ to act as a tanker. Please do not dismiss this as a request for a player controlled tanker; this is a request for an AI model only.

 

Thank you

How did you test an "EQ"? 
It is highly unlikely that we will get an "EQ" at some point after the "BE", "EE" and "M", as there are probably hardly any accessible documents.

Pull it up in the mission editor and see if it has the pod or the refueling AI task? 

 

The EQ is already in game as an AI asset, it's not hard to check this stuff for yourself. 

 

Also you should read the post before talking, I'm specifically asking for the AI variant to be able to act as a tanker; not for us to get a full fidelity EQ.

Right now most of the AI variants seem to be mostly cosmetic/placeholder capability wise, they mostly have a default-ish weapon set. Hopefully if their schedule and resources allow Aerges can improve them as time goes. However, for now I'd expect them to be fairly hands-full with working on F1CE items, and then starting work on EE, BE, M tasks.

Yeah, that's why it's in the wish list sub-forum. 

I'm fully aware that it's not going to happen any time soon, but I wanted to point it out so Aerges sees that the option has been requested.

Yeah, sorry if I came off a bit like "this shouldn't be the priority", that wasn't my intention. But it is super hot here these days, and I am a lot less eloquent than I'd like to be  autumn can't come soon enough
