Well, seeing that it hasn't been tested (both ways) to see the effects... nobody knows, do they?

As normal your speaking of which you do not know. I tested the 2 other methods besides what we are now using in about 1993 when I wrote my first simulator htsim.

So YES I do know.

Touche. But, your decision was based on your opinion of the findings.

Given what I know of your opinion on things like correct gauges, engine management, gunnery, etc., etc., well, I can't take your word for it that you made the right decision.

During those 1993 tests, were those tested on entire arenas, or were they controlled, limited-server-access tests?

Right decision ? ... according to you ? ... are you the stick that all Flight Sims need to measure against ?

It's amazing the crap that spews from your mouth for someone who has never written a flight sim and made a living from it or provided a living for others.

Wow ... your arrogance knows no bounds.

Uh Oh, Stigma is throwing out the old "you not using the correct gauges or engine controls" arguement.

Stiglrs game on Tuesday night 8pm EST 20people

Dales game on Tuesday night 8pm EST 900people.

Since when does "more popular" equal "more correct"?

Just curious why are you so hell bent on changing AH, poking at the owner, or trolling the boards? Are you trying to bring AH players to TW?

Since dissatisfaction with gauges is evidence that a collision model is flawed.
