Title: Minor details on landing gear going up.
Post by: fuzeman on July 16, 2006, 02:57:44 PM

I see [and hopefully you have too] films of WW2 planes and the gear often raises asymetrically or unevenly.
Minor coding thing with a timer and some randomizer or not?
Somthing this small probably not even worth a cogitation for two but it'd add another level or realism to films and such.

Actually, I think it's sorta funny that the F4F had a manual hand-crank to raise/lower gear, and yet in AH raising and lowering the gear gives a mechanical whine. :D

You can always add a custom sound ;).

I knew that so I posted it first to soak up all the glory for such a wonderful yet overlooked detail.

In TA just now F4U-1 and Spitfire went inverted and was able to raise/retract the gear.

Now this is a GREAT wish.
Sudz!!! Is this possible to do with this game?  I always see the gear going up asymetrically in movies and this would be a cool idea to implement.
