Title: Just Be Done Wid It Already
Post by: Slade on March 25, 2014, 12:01:24 PM
Since using the rearm pad is not considered a new sortie each time you use it, there really is no reason to delay things.  All you should have to do is fly over it and you are automatically re-armed!  :old:

Better yet, might save time just to fly over it and enter in how many kills you will be landing with.

Even if rearming in 30s + fuel isnt 100% realistic, at least it looks more than if we had Mario Kart pads... After this, will u wish Turbo-boosters pads added so u can take off in 5 sec after ur flash refuelarm ?  :lol

I use it  when hangers are down.  I could see the time going up but not down.  Too gamy to make it a fly over.

The rearm pads, while slightly gamey, are somewhat useful when your field's been hit, and I think they're a good thing for FSO.

Besides, the fly-through ones are already in game.  If you go through one of the silver quonset huts inverted with your wings exactly level at 213mph, you will instantly rearm/refuel.

I use it and did not ask for your help, thank you.

I'd like to further that by adding:

-1 to the idea myself.


Terrible idea.  Bad Slade.  Bad, bad Slade.  Flying over it is too much work.  Maybe add a feature to just press Alt-Shift-R to rearm and also enter how many kills you need to land with.  :old:

Wait.  Bad Slade.  Another bad idea. 

What is a sortie again?

So, you done cryin' about rearm pads yet?

A pilot is faced with a risk decision when considering the use of the rearm pad i.e. land kills to get credit, or go to rearm pad, roll dice you dont get killed by a vulcher or GV and reupp.    The risks to the pilot would be greatly reduced if we followed this suggestion....which would increase the use of rearm pads. 

I think this is a very bad idea.

I use Re-arm pads with B-29 sorties!

I always hit those dumb buildings next to the pad, instantaneously tearing off my wing. I just can't win here.  :(

I am fine with 30 seconds. It is a decision made based on the threats around the field and such. Do I risk it or go somewhere else to land ?
