Ok. This is the final 20th question. The list is closed.

why cant luthier and team use steam to put out small patches with small fixes regular, rather than big patches rarely??

Publication of small patches through Steam can be inconvenient for the programmers.

Final list your questions №2

1. Are you planning to return a little shake in flight to the game, the type of one that was in earlier versions?

2. Will there be the appearance of a working siren on Ju-87?

3. Are you planning to use the opportunity to play several virtual cameras displayed on separate monitors, as it was in the old "IL-2"?

4. Is there any news about the Su-26?

5. Are you planning to transfer the new graphic effects (eg, weather) future sequels in the "Battle of Britain"?

6. Can you guys give us access to the AI programming functions, to can over-ride/improve them in 3rd party code (dll's)?
This would be a great step forward, as we have many users around here with good programming and flight sim AI development experience in order to start things moving in this direction.

7. Will the dynamic stall be implemented in the Flight Model?

8. Will the maximum altitude of the planes (ceiling) be raised to the historical values of ~10-11000 m? Today it is 7-8000 m for most planes, and much less for the Fiat G.50

9. Will the performances of the poor G.50 be upgraded to be closer to the real historical values? The G.50 maximum speed today is ~350 kmh at sea level against 407 kmh found in books and online references. The G.50 ceiling in game is some 5000 m, against 10500 m found in various sources.

10. Will the UBI intro .wmv video issue be finally corrected? Today it clocks down the ATI cards to 2D-power saving mode, and gives really poor performances to the users that do not delete or rename it. That is most of ATI users I guess.

11. Will the ghost dots issue be corrected? Today in online servers you see far contacts which disappear when you close in.

12. Will the GUI be optimized? Today it's not practical.

13. Will the track recording be improved? Today the main issues are: need to exit from flight to start recording, need to manually type a track file name, need to exit again from flight to stop the video, frequent crashes in the procedure, frequent crashes when trying to record an avi from a track.

14. Will the damage of a radiator by bullets produce a damage to the engine? Today you get the message "radiator leak" but the engine continues to run.

15. Will the AI crews of bombers be programed to do their jobs? Will navigators navigate. Will bomb aimers guide the aircraft into the bomb run. Will observers report air and surface contacts etc? Or are the current crew statues considered to be adequate?

16. Do you plan on adding bail animations and/or first person bailouts with the ability to look around when in a parachute.

17. Will we see the coop mission in CloD, as it was in the old "IL-2"?

18. Are you planning to create new aircraft for the "Battle of Britain"?

19. Are you planning to assign precise control point of view (zoom) button or axis, as it was in the old "IL-2"?

20. Does Luthier understand how disappointed we will be if the sequels cannot be merged to give core improvements to earlier releases of the series?

Thanks BlackSix for the ongoing communication.

Have to say I think that Q. 20 (merged install) will turn out to be the latest in a long-running series of storm in a teacup, non-issues that blow up here and run for a few weeks before being revealed as complete BS fed by misunderstanding and panic.

this one has been answered before by Luthier i believe.

the siren was a short lived thing apparently and it was removed by the time of BOB. it also cause a speed reduction of 20 or so km/h due to weigt and drag
no sources.

trought that there is the 3d model for it in the game..... should be removed interely.

[louisv]

As long as the sirens are there (the 3d model), might as well use them...

Imagine this crazy Stuka pilot installs one on his own JU-87...it could be an option.

[smink1701]

Anything that will include a P-51

19. Are you planning to assign precise control point of view (zoom) button or axis, as it was in the old "IL-2"?

Well you mean i hope better eyes Position of pilot as well right?

[Dano]

Whatever happened to the dedicated server? Or did I miss something?
