Title: Stamina
Post by: Keiler on February 22, 2007, 03:14:09 AM

I stumbled across a few WW2 accounts were fighter pilots sometimes were barely able to walk after getting home due to exhaustion, and that not due to extended flight time.

Would it be feasible to include a stamina bar into the game? The more Gs you pull and the more you got to "wrestle" with your plane per time, i.e. fighting compression and the like, the faster your stamina bar decreases (which of course regenerates as well). The lower your stamina, the greater the effect on how far you can use your controls. Maybe with a "spring effect", i.e. when you're low on stamina, you can do full inputs, but depending on how low your stamina is, inputs go back to lower values at faster or slower rates. This taking into account initial recovery.

Too complex? Viable?

I'd like to hear what the community says!

Best regards,

Matt

That's something for Combat Tour, not MA.

I don't think we'll see it in the MA's, but there's something along those lines coming to Combat Tour.

Your character in TOD has attributes such as strength, stamina, perception, luck, etc., that govern various abilities such as G tolerance, stick forces, icon distances, effect of pilot wounds and more. As you gain promotions, you also gain additional attribute points to assign as you see fit. In this way, you can customize the abilities of your character to best suit your own particular combat style. In addition to your pilot gaining abilities, your plane can receive some additional benefits by your ground crew as well.

From the CT forum sticky.

LOL! By the way, this has been requested before, but don't blame you for not searching. You never know what to search for to find anything on topic.
