Suggestion: The Fuel Dumping Feature

35.4k FoxtrotCharlieCharlieX  3.2 years ago

Ehm...It would be great to have such a cool feature in this game, with this feature, you can drain some fuel in any part of the flight or in any situation to make the aircraft lighter.

I think the idea requires a something like a special long tube attached to flap part of the wing from which fuel can be drained.

    Simulate the entire fuel system (with multiple tanks) using FT. Fuel dumping drains the simulated fuel. To have the visual effect, use the air pollution mod (which allows for FT boolean inputs) to make a white smoke trail.

    @jamesPLANESii or better yet, hook the engine up to a launchCountermeasures input, and create a box that traps said countermeasures upon firing them, so that you get a nice plume of smoke behind you, which ends up looking a lot like a fuel dump!

    Engine with its input set to an activator, and with its max input set very high, and a white, scaled up exhaust
