Understood and agreed....the start up, would have been a bonus for some of us off liners

Also overheating.

The flight model is not limited the stick control, your left hand on the throttle/pitch is also a important factor in the flight model.
Let's not forget fuel management. Selectable fueltanks with consequences to the FM would be great.

And for the "complex" startup procedure just look at Skockwaves BoBII. You just need to press no more than 5 switches ( 2 x magnetos, fuel cutoff, primer pump and starter switch) which takes about 10 seconds, but it greatly enhances the immersion.

I do not think there is any question that things you are talking about will be implemented in SoW.

S!

Sure they will be modeled, the question is only to which degree they are authentic ;)

In Il-2:1946 there is no overboosting damage, no damage from flying to long at to high rpm and boost presure, no undercooling of the engine at high alt and so on.

And what about overcooling ???? This can happen in low power setting descent.....

Wo-Ho! You can freeze your engine at low RPM and high altitude. It is modeled since FB!
I wouldn't be surprised if there was some damage from flying at high RPM too long (but it might be minor enough that you wouldn't notice)

if you fly at high rpms too long your engine starts to overheat. three guesses as to what happens next.

I believe Oleg once said that they had tested sharks in PF (but I think he was joking)?

Anyway, with regards to the pacific theater I believe Oleg indicated some time ago that it wouldn't happen until some other theaters had been visited (the Eastern Front for his Il-2 fans and probably expanding ETO/MTO). He also said that it might never happen if the U.S. didn't change its trademark laws (or a way wasn't found around them). I hope this helps.
thanks for the word...I was kind of wondering if Oleg had any other info on the issue...

and yes the geese would be cool :)

S! all

about SOW

could the damage on the planes be contiued on the next mission so you dont have new planes every single mission?

well its an idea

CRT=2 & Vista
 
Dear Oleg;

Sorry if I'm asking an already answered question, yet "checkRuntime=2" as we know conflicts when running different O.S.'s.....(Xp with Vista as an example)....

Can anything be done to resolve this issue, up to and possibly even getting help from Microsoft?..........This one point alone is keeping some from using checkRuntime=2, setting it to "1" instead.

K2
