Title: you gotta be kidding me....
Post by: G10Whore on May 03, 2001, 04:12:00 AM
Im sitting their reloading my ammo, i go to leave realizing my wing is going to hit the structure no matter where i go, so i go VERY slowly thinking that the wing will just bump it, and will turn.  im talking like 2-3 feet of wingtip too


wrong!


the whole damn wing is blown off, the plane shakes like hell, the other wing comes off and my elevators are killed

WTF!

instead of new planes, how about working on the collisian model?

or maybe a reverse altho thats not ralistic but when is AH about realisim?  A reverse would be gameplay! thats what AH is about, GAMEPLAY!


and an iconless HA too


take no offense, it just pisses me off.

hey thats not a bad product name for a line of simulators  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

on a serious note..hes dead right.Who would build a shed at the end of a runway and make it out of solid STONE!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)
please make it impossible to crash into HTC. it is a bit silly.

Yes, please remove it. We cannot be bothered to taxi to refuel pad and evade small immobile obstacle.

Try this as you are taxing change your view so you are not looking at the shed.  I did that the other night a couple times and went rigth thru it.  Something about the If you don't see it it never happened deal.

Isn't it a toilet for the pilot?   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif) BTW, I agree to remove the toilet  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)

Let me make sure I understand this. G10potato takes the realist approach and purposely bumps his wing into a building. Then complains that the sim isn't realist because he can't still fly his plane.

Very funny HT....and i agree. I think the moral to the story is don't hit the plane into a stationary object & you should be ok.

Would prefer Hitech and Co work on the sim as they have been, and the PILOT work on his own darn taxi skills.

Why not just remove the shed from the rearm pad?? The shed serves no purpose as the pad is visible and the locations are rather fixed at all fields. No shed, no collisions.

I'm for leaving it. Actually makes you have to have a clue what you're doing while taxiing...

Post by: john9001 on May 03, 2001, 12:45:00 PM
Having a refuel pad next to a runway threshold sounds like a safety issue. The pad should be away from any active runway, maybe seperate arming and fueling pads.

Also, planes should only spawn in empty hangers or revetments and have to taxi to the runway, and friendly collisions on the ground should be on , and we need a automatic ATC to announce the active runway.

Shacks were at the end of runways.  Always have been and always will be.  That in and of itself is a moot point.

Regardless of where you put the rearming pad, there should be a shack there (afterall, where do the troops doing the hot turn hangout?).  Regardless of where you put it, people will run into the building because they have to taxi near to it.

You know the limitation.  You know the location.  Miss it next time.  Or... just exit and get a new plane.

Holy Jesus and while weer at it add IFF.  Sounds like Flight Sim 2000 to me.  

AG:  Tower can you confirm runway?
Tower:  Copy runway 23
AG: Roger taxiing over
Tower: Copy that watch out for vulchers.
AG: Umm what?  We got birds on the runway?
Tower: Last transmission broke a part.
AG: WTF is going on?  Tower did you say you just booked a fart?
Tower: negative runway clear proceed
AG: Bout Fuggin time,
AG: ready for takeoff rolling..... jesus christ who put a B-17 out there?

I think that if you want to "hot rearm", you should be made to taxi to the hangar (if there is one).  Betcha NO ONE goes for this idea!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Checksix, with your intellect you should find a nice home in the CounterStrike or Quake arenas.

Dejapoo... what will they think of next?
You have hours of brainstorming ahead of you Checksix, best get to work!

Ah.. no need to step in wulfie.  Checksix is just another "personna" for a pilot afraid to actually stand behind his posts.  Seems this one is dedicated to slamming me in his posts.  So far he's 3:3.

I do find it funny how he thinks my post merrits comment amongst all of these.

I dunno about the re-arm pad, but that outhouse has to be in the WORST place in the world   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  One thing's for certain, you've got a great view and plenty of room for the poor place to air out after!   (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

just like keepin you honest.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

the hypocrisy can be bothersome sometimes.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

guess you should re-read your own "can't we just all get along" material again.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

you're slippin off the wagon.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

<sigh>... bored now..... time to get back to work.  .........some of us are forced to work to pay for this game.  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

where do you find all the time to wade into all of the fun and frivolity on here?

Anybody notice that taxiing seems a little strange though with how the aircraft turns.  It seems to almost slide around corners from an outside view (like on a bomber or goon).  I bumped a building once this way, when I turned away the aircraft appeared to slide even though I was barely moving.

The outhouse is in the perfect position. Think about it. You're sitting in there, squeezing one out - when out of the blue a B-17G comes crashing onto the runway with two engines on fire, and a C-Hog is close behind, spraying 20mm howitzers at it with glee. Your "business" on the toilet would be all done in 2 seconds flat!!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/biggrin.gif)

You know crash realism is way off! You run a rearmed fighter threw a depot full of Bombs, rockets, jado pods and a mass quantity of fuel? Flying the thing should be the least of your problems hehe "wink"

I dont think you did understand it  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif) He was not complaining about not being able to fly his plane after that. He was complaining about the whole plane exploding and him being killed. Why didnt the wingtip just get damaged or just the wing get ripped off??? After that he could have taxied back to runway and exited the plane.

Or was it just a chance that his refuelled plane just happened to leak out the fuel and get a sparkle from the wing scraping the shed??? Can the collision with a shed also cause just some minor damages in some other situation??? Was he just unlucky this time? Or is this a mater of damage modelling?

Maybe if he had been in a F4U he would have been all right??  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/wink.gif)  (109s cannot fly with wing damage.. F4U can)
