Fuel gauge giving different readings?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Am I the only one that's seeing this? I was flying the BF-110 (but I saw the same thing happen with the IL-2) and the fuel gauge kept giving me different readings. Sometimes it would tell me I have an empty tank, 30 seconds later, I have a full fuel tank. Is this a bug or is this a feature I didn't know about?

Realistically, planes that have multiple fuel tanks but only 1 fuel gauge had a switch to toggle between each fuel tank, Ingame, this is modelled by a regular automatic toggle every few seconds or so, this may be what you're seeing

Am example from the FW190 A-8, "Hinten" and "Vorn" Refer to Rear and front tanks

ohhh I see. Damn. I ditched my mission a bit too early then. I had a fuel leak, but the 2nd tank was still full.

If you read the specifications tab it includes details on things such as the fuel tank selector switch.
