Why still no dive acceleration difference?

[K_Freddie]

It has been known for years that the game accelleration rates are not that accurate. I think the documents from which the games rates are taken are from shallow test dives (as mentioned) so cannot really be extrapolated to 90 degree dives.

In this situation, there probably should be large initial differences due to weight, power and friction, as this was guaranteed escape tactic for the FW, P47 and others, against the lighter aircraft. Maybe TD can tweak the FM's in this area.
