Title: Re-Arm Options...
Post by: Cobra412 on September 08, 2004, 08:22:08 PM
I'm sure this has been talked about before but what is the possibility of having Re-arm pad options?

I'm sure ICTs (Integrated Combat Turnarounds) were done during WWII.  During an ICT you should have the option of different loadouts at a cost for time per rearm.

With the current system it takes 30 seconds to refuel and fully rearm no matter what you had loaded to start with.  I think it'd be more realistic if you could have other options.  If you just went on a Jabo mission and you'd like to fully rearm each item would = x amount of seconds towards your rearm.  Now if you got done with a Jabo mission and wanted to up for a basic CAP your rearm time would go down depending on the amount of fuel you wanted to take and possibly tanks too.

If a full rearm takes 30 seconds to fully loadout then each item removed should remove x amount of seconds off of your rearm. Plus this would give the option to dynamically change your load out per each mission instead of going to the tower, then to the hangar then back to the runway again.  Already dropped your tank on the last mission?  Need to get up quickly to defend?  Alter your loadout grab minimal fuel and reup right off the pad.
