Pilot's head effects

[II./SG.1-MarkWilhelmsson]

I have a quick question about the new pilot physiology which the team is planning to implement; will the new effects include force and inertia exerted on the pilot's head? For example, will a flyer who is pulling a high G-turn still be able to swing their head around to check their six in an instant with Track-IR or VR? Or will G effects create a slower response time for the head movement? I'm very excited for the new physiology effects and am hoping that it also will effect the pilot's head movements. I'm also interested to know what other members of the community think about this.

No it does not. Not possible with our current code.

In the near future, VR headsets will have force feedback mechanisms.  Shortly after, the flight sim community will suffer a rash of death and injury due to broken necks.  TrackIR and VR users who haven't upgraded to the new headsets will begin referring to the victims as "twist tops".

Yeah I think any attempt to force head movement on VR players would induce sickness.

I think with the ever increasing quest for realism flight simmers will install centrifuges in their backyards as part of VR. This special breed will no longer be known as a 1G comfy chair fighter pilot, but a 1-9GCCFP
