The 3 secs is not a messure of a single black out time but wrather a fatigue factor. It is accumlated when ever you are in full black out. It drains at the rate of 0.1 sec for every sec you are not blacked out.So if you accumlated 2 secs of black out it would take 20 secs to be back to square 1. With 5 secs of black out it used to drain at a rate of 0.25 secs per sec. Once unconsious you will remain so for 10 secs, that value has not changed.


Other fixed oversights, throttle, and auto pilot engaging are now disabled if you are unconsious from either wound or accumlated black out.

Nice HT !!! I like it ... I think.

This ought to prove to be interesting.

It all sounds good to me, the "cumulative" factor is what I was talking about early in this thread. But th milion dollar question is...

If autopilot is activated BEFORE the blackout begins does it stay engaged?

I would assume so, but you know what they say about ass-u-me'ing.

Just checked it out offline.  It's a lot more realistic!

Thanks Again Hitech!

That's ok. It's something I'd wanna forget too. NP tho. I find the new Blackout model fascinating. Seems this thread made a dramatic change to AH. I'm glad it was a simple and easy project. Now HT and company can go back to working on my SCW planeset. :D

I wonder if you get your "seconds" back after a while? Long flights back to base, rearm and return should give ample time for a fatigued pilot to regain his strength, should it not?

Yes you do Gsholz...

Hitech stated that you gain your "fatique factor" back at a rate of .1 seconds for every something or other...Ill quote and put below....

There...now thats better!  I have tried it...seems to be modeled as such without getting the stopwatch out!

Hey Arlo,

Give me your address and I will send you some pacifiers.  My 2 year old daughter doesn't need her's anymore.  It will help ease the adjustment to your flying style.

Cool, thanks for clearing it up Gutboy! I missed HTs post.

I have to admit I was getting worried there, even though I was a proponent of the accumulation factor. I fly sorties that are over an hour long fairly often. I could see hitting the 3 second accumulation after only picking a few cherries :D
