Seriously, he seemed to say that you can choose between engines (perhaps similar to how you can choose between props on the existing AccuSim Spitfire for example).
If that's the case then I hope that (as someone put in that thread) each has it's own history and condition. So the first one could have a dodgy cylinder and 20 hours on it whereas the other 2 might be newer.

Ooooooh, I so wish for this. But the MILVIZ release probably means that's not gonna happen.Fragmentum wrote:Consider the possibility the new release may be an F4U Corsair. It was fitted with various engines during its service lifetime...
Re: A2A Development Update Dec 2017
The downside to creating something like that, would be that the simple act of visiting the hangar and replacing the worn parts would be all that's needed to correct the issue.tbaac wrote:If that's the case then I hope that (as someone put in that thread) each has it's own history and condition.

I doubt if the in depth Accusim system would be used in that way.

Re: A2A Development Update Dec 2017
The next A2A release is supposed to have wing-tip tanks as an option, it kind of narrows the list down somewhat.

Not sure I follow. On my Spitfire for example, if a part is worn out I can replace it.mattgn wrote:The downside to creating something like that, would be that the simple act of visiting the hangar and replacing the worn parts would be all that's needed to correct the issue.

If the new plane had 3 available engines and each one had some worn parts then they could similarly be replaced with a couple of mouse clicks if I wanted.
What's the difference between maintaining one engine in the hangar and maintaining 3 engines in the hangar?
(when 'maintenance' is done with a few mouse clicks)

Re: A2A Development Update Dec 2017
Thanks for that Dudley
Sorry Lewis
In that case, I'd always wanted to see a Trike Ultralight accusimmed.
And can we have a version of the Mk ii Spitfire with a G500/G600 glass cockpit please? And tundra tyres.
This would be a free update obviously as there's not much to change really.
Cheers.

Re: A2A Development Update Dec 2017
I'd love to see a GRIFFON Spitfire... just so I could have ONE aircraft in my inventory that I don't feel guilty about not flying!
Re: A2A Development Update Dec 2017
Happy Holidays,
I think A2A's next COTS will be Douglas DC-4 and C-54 Skymaster in one release. On the other product line, I think the jet generation will be born...
Merry Xmas,
Will
