Updates:
Dynamic Airplane Weight
- Pilot, cargo, and fuel all add-up to increase the airplane weight. This will impact airplane performance and handling. As fuel is used the airplane will get lighter. This will be a factor when planning cargo missions - especially at higher elevations, where airplane performance is already diminished.
Flaps & Trim
- Added new trim and flap indicators to the airplane panel, so you can now see what they are set to.
- Totally changed the flap physics and added three settings (aka notches). Clicking the flap button cycles through 0-40 degrees.
Cockpit Free-look
- Changed cockpit free-look button behavior so that player can toggle it on or off.
Track IR - Head Tracking Support
Added head tracking support, for Natrual Point's TrackIR hardware, on the cockpit camera. Currently, it is always enabled. Don’t forget that F12 re-centers the camera.
Enter/Exit Airplane
- Slight change to entering and exiting the airplane: you now need to look at the door handle for interaction. The door animation will open and then close after you’re in the airplane.
