Fuel tank selection
« on: July 31, 2009, 12:10:00 AM »
Before the update the tanks would be lit yellow or white depending if they are on auto select or not.

With the update they are no longer lit yellow for when they are no on auto select.  I find it to be very hard to tell now and wondering if it will be changed back to what we had before?

No.  That was tried in the Beta and taking the tanks off auto-select caused the sun not to reflect on the water and more bushes popped up!

Why not have a separate light bulb like auto pilot and beacon have, when auto fuel tanks is on?

I was switching tanks today and they were lit in yellow selective and white for auto.  I think this may have already been fixed.

It's not fixed, it just doesn't happen to everyone.

When I did this, it showed white for auto and gray for manual. (May have been the other way around) Either way, colors were are a little too close IMO.

That is what I had and was playing with it for a good 15 min trying to figure out which is which.   :lol
