Title: smoke in cockpit
Post by: drfritz on December 22, 2007, 08:06:34 PM

I posted this in general discusion but should of been here instead.
I think we need smoke in cockpit after taking rounds in engine. nothing worse than putting rounds on target and think the guy is going down to find same guy puting rounds in your back side.zero is a good sample, thing is roman candle and the guy is still fighting, in the real world the guy would be doing all he could to get out and not burn to death. just my two cents

I'm all for it.  If Adolf Galland can get an ashtray installed in his 109, why can't we?

Do we then need to add an 'open canopy' function? In this situation a pilot isn't going to just sit and gas themself in their cockpit if they can open their canopy.

Do we then add a 'canopy jammed' damage function?

Does this then prevent bailing?

Ooops, bit of a can of worms there.

One step at a time.

Smoke in the cockpit would be a nice addition to the immersion we all seek. I like the idea. :aok

I never smoke while flying, it leaves buildup on the inside of the canopy.   Windex helps.  I say no for right now.

I agree with some aspects of this, the rest belong in the O'Club.
