Title: cabin pressurization
Post by: FYB on February 08, 2009, 02:10:57 AM: If a b-17 is shot in a compartment, won't the cabin start depressurizing at a certain altitude?
I don't see this in game at all.
The lack of oxygen would knock the pilot unconscious, and eventually lead to death; It should be added to the game and damage list. (10,000 ft. or 3,000m is the altitude level the oxygen starts to decrease.)

Just another problem you have to deal with while flying high. ;)

Pilots and crew wore oxygen masks above 10k.

Post by: Delirium on February 08, 2009, 09:12:43 AM: Great idea! Lets enable hypoxia above 10k and not give anyone any O2 masks.

Best way to keep the fights under 10k in the MA. :aok

Post by: bj229r on February 08, 2009, 09:56:08 AM: Lots of B17 gunners succumbed to hoses freezing TO the O2 masks....nothin like flyin at 30k with open windows
