Pilot modeling?

[recoilfx]

First of all, amazing sim ED!

 

However, after doing countless sorties, I don't think my pilot has ever been injured by bullets... Or suffered from effects of injury (not being able to pull as hard, vision red, and etc)...

 

I guess this is not models? We the pilots are just immortal til our plane explodes? We need to model this!

 

Another request would be have pilots body's react to G forces. Currently, the pilot is like a steel puppet glued to the the structure.

 

To be able to see your pilots body thrown around due to violent maneuvers would be an awesome addition for people who have pilot view enabled. I'm sure the movie makers would also be extremely pleased.

 

I don't think any other sim has done this, so ED you can be the first! :)

Indeed - Seeing the pilot slumped forward when you pass out due to G would be a cool feature too :thumbup:

Pilot kills are in the sim, but it's very difficult to make it happen. I didn't think they were featured, until I'd been flying for over a month. That was when I was P.K.ed for the first time--by the A.I., on my first time fighting him. He's done it plenty of times, since then, and my own gunnery has also improved to the point where I occasionally make one when fighting a human player.

 

I do believe, however, that the armor isn't modelled right. Real pilot armor was only rated for .303, and was not designed to stop .50, 20 mm., and certainly not 30 mm. Ours seems to stop anything, and the only way to kill the pilot appears to be to shoot around the armor. I could be wrong; without a turret to do static tests on the ground, I can't test it. Hey! Maybe I'll ask my friend w

Should also model pilot income and cholesterol level. J/k while your at it, sexual preference so we can model the repeal of DADT... REALLY JK, shouldn't have gone there

The pilot can be killed if the plane got hit at the cockpit area. And it's not so rare. Yesterday I had PK from the AI... s...t happens. The pilot can get unconsious from over-G or from O2 starvation.

Injures are not modelled.

Can the A-10 pilot black out? I've only noticed this in the P-51

[Rusty_M]

Yes. It's just harder to make the A-10 pull enough G's

[WildBillKelsoe]

Yes. It's just harder to make the A-10 pull enough G's

 

and its a blessing that way..
