I know!

I bought IL2 when it was first released. One of the first things I noticed
about the game was the lack of water fountains.

There was no cool, refreshing and beautiful spouts of clear, fresh water.
No where could I hear the soothing sound of splashing and dripping.

At first, I assumed that this was an oversight by the developers and it would
be fixed in a patch, but here we are, almost at v4.10 and there are still no
fountains. I don't understand.

I had almost forgotten until last week, but then I had a dream about flying
over a water fountain in a La7 and woke up crying. I hope it gets fixed.

I don't want to read that kind of things or else I may have problems to get into killer mood in today's mission

I understand that Letum has put forward a strong case for his water fountains however I shall be outraged if TD commence work on this admittedly important feature prior to implementing bacon & eggs.

Currently, we can set fuel, ammunition and pilot skill but no-where can we specify whether or not the pilot has had a good breakfast or not. This is an oversight of flabbergasting proportion.

Breakfasting to the utmost was the greatest secret of the RAF during the Battle of Britain. Though the modeling of this most important meal of the day has admittedly set back the release of BoB by some three years, Oleg recently confirmed that eggy tesselation, though not seen in the recent alpha, has been perfected - there are even wild rumours of black pudding.

That red light in the 109's cockpit did not indicate low air fuel as most have thought up until now: it came on when the staffel's cooks had finally knocked up breakfast and the errant nazi's were recalled for their piddly continental - a poor shadow of the full English, with its insipid orange juice and croissanty nonsense (we have much to thank the French resistance for).

It has long been acknowleged that the Nazi war machine, for all it's tactical nous and tremendous engineering capacity, neglected to fry animal products in a manner befitting its warriors of the air. They'd never even researched brown sauce.

I hope this appalling inaccuracy is finally corrected.

FINALLY A THREAD FOR THE REALLY IMPORTANT PARTS OF FLIGHT SIMS IN GENERAL!

ooops, caps lock

No really, there a so many small but important facts simply overlooked in flight sims.
It makes me really happy to see them get addressed now!

But as usual it is fixed to the already overmuch present pilots
What about the breakfast for the really important people?
The "schwarzen Männer", the aircraft mechanics?
Without them all those glamorous flyboys couldn't stand in the limelight!
Also do not underevaluate dinner and supper!
One part of the downfall of the third reich was the use of reconstituted eggs, "Ersatzkaffee" and "Kunsthonig"!
Especially for the non-flyboys.

Don't try this, just give space and act as support to the creator of the most fun topic ever.

It's priceless! Need to be sticky! And THIS topic need severe moderation! My post and any other without "serious" feedback about what must or not be included in IL-2 need to be deleted ASAP!

Let's keep this topic pure!

[IceFire]

Comedy gold folks! Keep it up! Need some lightheartedness right now... tis the season!

[EJGr.Ost_Caspar]

Can you deliver any trustable sources for.... fountains?

I mean, not those post war reports. Even still existing fountains are mostly made by new spare parts. Is there any original left? We need such sources to do it correctly or none at all. You know...

That red light was Adolf Galland, smoking a cigar.


The post of letum reminds me of whatnot's "spaghetti is not realistic without tomato" post. LOL

The problem with water fountains is keeping the U Boats out.
