And besides fuel trucks there are tanker vessels...
Loaded tanker could burn for many hours with impressive flames and smokes while staying afloat. Half laden or empty tanker with tanks not yet ventilated could explode after a minor hit due vapour detonation.

I'm happy to support realistic explosions with a realistic danger element provided the frame rate hit isn't too severe.

And thanks again DT for all your good work. I think I'll be sticking with this game for my WWII air combat fix for quite a while yet, mostly thanks to the sheer variety of aircraft and other objects and maps continuing to become available. I enjoy any additions, but particularly the earlier war elements come to mind, like the B-24D a while back, and the AI improvements such as terrain avoidance, taxi to takeoff, etc, etc.

I'd love to see the Martin Baltimore in game too! It's an often overlooked type, but saw squadron service with 7 countries according to my sources.

A little confused since I would think a 40% limit would mean the player could not choose a fuel loadout higher than 40%. This would work great on smaller maps making the fuel usage an issue.

difficulty LimitedFuelOption 00
This is the default setting. Online player can choose all fuel settings

difficulty LimitedFuelOption 10
This is the default setting. Online player can only choose 10%

difficulty LimitedFuelOption 20
Online player can only choose 20%

difficulty LimitedFuelOption 30
Online player can only choose 30%

etc.

No need to go past 90% since the 00 option allows 100 percent fuel.

To tell the truth, here is my wish:

difficulty LimitedFuelOption 100
This is the realistic setting. All online players take-off with 100% of fuel. NO LESS!

Thanks.

Some maps are scaled. They are actually 1/2.
Those maps should have 50% fuel enabled.
At least for the sake of caring about fuel shortage.

Unacceptable. Bf 110 and P-51 carry so much fuel that they would be gimped as a result.
