Hog wing tank glitch
« on: December 28, 2006, 10:13:52 PM »
Noticed an issue with the L/R fuel tanks on the F4U-1A. These tanks are located out in the wing tips. However, it appears that the game, at least for damage purposes, treats them like they're in the fuselage:

When leaking these tanks smoke from the fuselage (other aircraft with wing tanks, fighters included, smoke from the wings) and if the plane loses the outer half of the wing the fuel tank is NOT lost with it. I think hits to the fuselage may also be "perforating" these wing tanks.

Not sure if this same issue exists on the remodeled F4U-1, but I'm definitely seeing it in the 1A.
Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.
