Nice suggestion skoshi. That would help overcome the ridiculous situation where we don't get informed of airfields under attack. Last edited by KG26_Alpha; 02-12-2012 at 09:29 AM. |

What key do you assign to start the engine? After assigning a key, the engine started when you pushed that key?

'I' and also a mapped button on my controller box. Of course it works - this is how everyone starts up on any full real server. Make sure you open the fuel cock first or the engine will just turn over once. Also turn the throttle down to about 10% and make sure the prop pitch is fine.

I know tht some here hve said the same thing but rad flaps do affect speed (at least on Hurries, Emils, 110s and G50s). You might hve to fine tune your flight parameters (side slip (yaw), prop rpm, pitch trim...) to clearly see it.

well i have to disagree on that one.at least on 109s it has no effect at all whether the rads are fully open or almost closed=>same speed in level flight

Well even the old IL-2 has paremteres in place for drag with the radiator open. I would think that CoD does too...

Type of improvement:
A conf.ini or any setting that enables you to turn of exhhaust flames even for your own plane. This would realy help to people with slower GPU´s like mine cause right now i can play the game with decent settings and good framerate with few drops here and there. What is literaly killing the performance is the exhaust flame effect. For example if i fly 110 i have about 40 fps looking forward but if i look at the engine fps go to 20 sometimes even lower (I guess that it deppends on how the engine is running at the moment) also switching to external view cause the same drop and if i switch to another aircraft my fps will double or triple with only difference being the missing exhaust flame. And no running the game on effects low is not an option since it removes all effects (bullet trails, hit effects, fire, smoke etc...) Benefit: more enjoyable gameplay for people with slower graphics cards Last edited by palker4; 03-15-2012 at 08:13 AM. |

Some good points.

The thermostat determines the minimum running temperature. below a certain value it remains closed until the operatinging temperature is reached then it opens up to allow water to flow to the radiator. This should effect the time taken to 'warm the plane up' but is not adjustable by the pilot. The Thermostat will try to maintain the temperature by controlling the flow of coolant to the radiator. I guess that there are a lot of variable in simulating 'realistic' temperature control! The Dev's have got their work cut out for them! cheers! Last edited by Skoshi Tiger; 03-04-2012 at 11:28 PM. |

Good point about the less dense air at altitude - I admit it's a complicated forumula. The theromostat quote you refer to comes from a MKII manual which allows for automatic and manual control of the rad. flap. I assume it's referring to the thermostat that controls the flap on auto setting. The main reason I quoted the manual was for the items in bold - the fact that the flap can't be completely closed and that the closed setting can be used for cruise and climb out under normal power settings - something we can't do yet in CloD.
