Droptanks disabled
« on: February 10, 2000, 11:16:00 PM »
Just a small point I think could improve the gameplay somewhat.

When droptanks are disabled at a field or the amount of fuel available is reduced you are usually forced to make a visit to the hangar to reduce your load to the maximum allowed.  This is very annoying if you see a c47 coming in and want to get up to shoot it down quickly.  Why not just have the game automatically adjust your fuel downward and/or droptank when it displays the message?  If you switch to another field it should be readjusted again.

Another small point.  It might be good if you could switch back and forth from film to online or whatever without quiting the program.

I think AH is going great.  Can't wait to see all the new planes coming and to join in some scenarios.

Try next time write following line into whine box: .ord 0 0
that should clear drop tanks..
(.ord <group> <ordnance> )
group 0 is the right side stuff in the hangar
group 1 is main weapons, stuff in the center
group 2 is stuffs on the left side of plane in hangar.

Usually ordnance 0 is 'nothing', this excludes main weapons stuff (.ord 1 0 is usually default main weapons)

Ie. when having Fw190, you type .ord 1 0 into whine box, you'll get 4x20mm guns, then you type .ord 2 1, you'll get drop tanks, then you type also .fuel 3, to get 100% internal fuels.

Thats the way I do arm my plane, if its not set up correctly.
