P-40C
« on: March 20, 2015, 10:42:50 PM »
In FSO on climbout, 75% gas, drop. Get booted. I recycle my internet, come back in, it puts me back in flight, (COOL!) After a bit, I'm pondering getting rid of my drop, and look at time remaining---19 minutes. (Odd, ought be over an hour) I SEE the external is still half full, I check the other internal tanks...there are none. (note, this is a bad time to drop the external) I hit shift F repeatedly, my external flips between yellow and white, no other tanks. Soo.....I drop the external to see what happens. Picture Enterprise sans warp core...no, because they still had impulse power. Anyhow, I glide in, couldnt make rearm pad. At this point, I manually kill internet, come back, get put back in flight...of course I'm still on the runway, sans gas... :headscratch:

"Then out spake brave Horatius, the Captain of the gate:
 To every man upon this earth, death cometh soon or late.
 And how can man die better, than facing fearful odds.
 For the ashes of his fathers and the temples of his Gods."

I haven't encountered this problem with any other plane in game. Seems that the P40C is the only Aircraft who's internal fuel tanks are drained after a disco.

I never encountered it in the P38 series, it certainly isn't a consistent issue like it is in the P40C

This bug still isn't fixed...........




I don't understand why the P40C is the only plane that does this.
