Exactly, and luthier said the other week that he had the flu too.
Relax everyone. Your life doesn't depend on weekly Friday updates.

I did some very painstaking calculations during the past week, and found out exactly what the correct size of head a 1.70 male should have. It differs from that you would get by merely scaling down from a taller male..difficult to explain. The picture tells it better:

LOL! Ya ain't afraid of nothing, ain't ya?!? :D

Back to serious things: it's time that the adults of this forum take back the steering wheel from the children. :D :D

Questions raised on this thread that deserve some attention from OM:


1. blending of 3D objects into the landscape (namely trees)
2. size of country roads
3. hedges
4. railroad bridges / tunnels / trenches
......
1001. Size of pilot

You are free to fill in the empty places from 4 to 1000, of course.

Through astute observation I concluded that Spitfire Pilots should have bigger heads!

Sorry Insuber, I was just trying to get a witty remark in before you called us to order! My bad!

Hate to break it to you Major but you can't base your findings on a replica. The original roundels didn't have numbers for one!

p.s. love the fratricide marking :)

-Prop-Wash
-Changing colours of grass due to change in weather (affecting the way this affects landings too as well e.g if the ground is wet)
-Animation of pilot...putting his helmet on, plugging in his wiring loom and oxygen hose (unless they were already plugged in)

etc etc

4. Oleg has already stated that the engine can handle tunnels, that they looked into it, but that they might not get a chance to do it with the initial release.

1001. I doubt Oleg will make a mistake here. Remember that people were smaller then.

Do you know why they often refer to gang bangers in LA, California as low riders?

One reason is..they drive their cars with the front seat as far down and back as possible. The driver can just barely see over the steering wheel. Why? so opposing gang members/bangers on driveby can't get a clear shot at them.

So... concluding from that I would say having a little head would be beneficial when you are getting shot at.. in East LA or in the virtual skies of IL2 SOW.

Therefore, SOW needs to have little pilots with little heads. It's logical... LOL

It make sense, afterall we have clickable cockpits, some are wanting virtual knees and knuckles...why not clickable pilots and head sizes.

all instruments are important.
thank you for clarifying my point skoshi, you have more patience than i!
not enough tbh.
