More effects on the pilot

Perhaps in future Luthier may decide to model oxygen systems, but that would undoubtedly be a low priority given the huge tasks confronting him now to bring this sim up to snuff -- and its sequel.

The OP's thread is, IMHO, forward thinking, interesting, and bit of fun to boot. Perhaps the timing is off given the currently huge problems this sim is still experiencing after 1.5 years of launch -- many here are not willing to look beyond the immediate necessary fixes.

Modelling of oxygen systems is included in the engine along with the effects of oxygen starvation on pilots/crew should they forget to switch on their oxygen when ascending to altitude. It is another item that has not been 'switched on' as yet, (maybe because it's incomplete or not fully debugged?).

I can't provide a link for this, but I remember it being mentioned by either Oleg or Luthier well before the release. (think it was in one of the Q & A sessions in response to a question)

Another item to be filed under 'future potential'.
