Droptanks

Postby Staiduk » Tue Feb 22, 2005 1:05 am

'Lo!

Just tinkering around again - trying to create a new drop tank by adjusting the existing ones.
Does anyone know if its possible to adjust the amount of fuel in a given tank (i.e. a Lightning's drop tank) and how?

Thanx. :)

Easy done by editting the .air file. If you use Airedit or the Abacus version just scroll down until you see the auxilliary tanks and change. I tried to do this with the cfg file but didn't get a result.

Thanks! Went looking all through the .air file; couldn't find it. I was using the older version. I fired up 1.52 and there it was!

The other problem was the dp's of the tanks I'm using (I'm fitting out a jet) described them as bombs. Once I figured that out and made the switch; everything worked. :)
