Please Team Daidalos include radiator and mixture axis in device link:grin:

I second that motion, as usual!

@jayrc: Great! That's what I created YaDeLi for!

+1. Having multiple keyboard assignments and being able to link them to a particular pilot profile would be a good thing.

I wonder if it already exists in the GUI preview that TD released?

The ability to change pilot profile once you start a campaign should be easy if you do it between missions - since all the program is doing is linking to a particular data file.

Likewise, it should be easy to alter difficulty options once you start a campaign, as long as you do so between missions. (This would sometimes be a real convenience, such as when you realize that a particular mission was designed for options such as Padlock On or No Clouds, but only after you're a couple of missions into the campaign!)

Changing pilot profile, difficulty options or other campaign information is probably more difficult, since I think that the program takes GUI, mission and campaign data and uses it to generate the mission. At the very least, you'd need to reload the mission - which certainly isn't possible for online play!

For offline play, I could see an option where the computer saves the mission in progress rather than just quitting the mission. The program could then give you the option of altering the mission parameters (using the FMB?), pilot profile or difficulty settings. Once you've done that, the program could give you the option of reloading the mission you saved (and possibly altered), starting the original mission from the beginning, or deleting the saved mission.

For coding, I could see data capture when saving a mission being treated as a "snapshot" of the data captured using .trk or .ntrk files.

In case of dead engine belly land, the prop could stay undamanged, the blade damaged IRL is not seen from cockpit and would just protrude ground in F2 mode.
Just saw it on NG-TV. The story of the Lockheed Electra which lost No.4 Prop in flight.

Edit.:

This accident does not show up in this list.
Eventually made up.

Is Tunisia map still being developed?
I imagine some of the new ground objects shown recently in the 4.12 preview are part of this project? If so, are we getting any new vehicles, too? A column of British-looking trucks is badly needed for all MTO scenarios, a sort of generic vehicle which is neither US nor Russian.

Just want teh patch.

central tunisia map is on hold. Basic structure is complete but it needs texture and object placement. The new objects are not 100% related but migth return useful. There were some important roman sites in the area, Sbeitla being one of the most famous.

Too bad but thanks for the heads-up, much appreciated.

Some next generic MTO objects - buildings, accessories are in WIP. With template from North Africa/Tunisia.

Request Priority For Landing And Light Guns
 

Offline, I have noticed damaged AI piloted planes flying the pattern waiting their turn to land at an airport only to crash before their turn comes up. I wonder if it would make sense for AI aircraft to request landing priority in cases of low fuel, damage or wounded crew?

I have read that 8th Airforce B-17's shot off flares near the field when they were returning with wounded crew.

On a separate topic, I have also read that some American control towers used light guns with green, red and white colors to communicate with aircraft that did not have radios. I do not know if other countries also used this system but it might be fun to incorporate it into the game.
