LowRider88 Posted March 24, 2023 Posted March 24, 2023 This is just an idea. This is by no means meant to distract the developers away from churning out new planes or fixes. Just an idea for the future. Deka has always been cool with new ideas other devs haven’t tried e.g. the insertable flight plan cartridges, the variety of languages for the in cockpit “bitchin betty” female voice, etc. Maybe some day Deka would be the first to provide a clickable exterior to the plane. We have clickable cockpits, it might be cool to also be able to click on panels, remove/apply covers, wing edge protectors, chocks, or even do maintenance work, like refueling, reloading guns, or replacing engines, and have these affect the “hit points” and load outs of the plane. Maybe the free camera could be duplicated, and the duplicate view could be constrained to the ground, paired with a walking 3D guy (like the view we get when we eject and are paired with parachute guy) and be able to manipulate objects if the camera is close enough. Eg. Move the ladder over to the plane. So much we can utilize from flight manuals, but all those maintenance manuals go ignored. Maybe if this was a thing it the future, it could open a whole new market, for those who like to “tinker” with things.
