Title: Rearm pad choices
Post by: Magoo on February 16, 2005, 12:22:02 PM

It would be a nice addition if you could choose to load different amounts of fuel, ammo, and ordinance when on the rearm pad. For those that are in a hurry to get loaded and re-up before being vulched, this could be a key press that would bring up the menu with the default original load being loaded automatically otherwise.

Doesn't work that way... Takes the same time to load light ammo and 25% tanks and no ord as it does to load 100%, DTs, bombs, rockets, and overload ammo. So basically choices don't mean shorter times. You still gotta sit there for 30 secs no matter what you want.

Well how about not starting the 30 seconds until you have made your choice(s) or making it longer for changing loadouts, maybe only 10 more seconds or whatever

I think 30 seconds to refuel/rearm a plane is generus enough

The relative time to load varying armaments would be a nice addition too. Originally I was just looking for choices. It would be a little more real if you had to choose what you wanted to put on your plane every time - of course you could radio ahead and tell the crew to get the stuff ready:) , so in the game allow us to pul up a rearm menu before we land and when you roll onto the pad PRESTO!

Hey, if your gonna ask, shoot for the moon!
