cruise fuel rate

[kaizerhund4]

basically how do i get better gas mileage in my bf109 planes, i edited the cruise fuel rate in the caeroplane file from 1.97 to 0.88, this probably only pertains to cruising mode  obviously.

Why would you want to cheat the fuel efficiency?

Fly the Fw190 planes...

 

...until next week or whenever the next update comes out with the Bf109 planes drop tanks

First, update 4.603 is coming next week, assuming there are no nasty last-minute surprises.

We have good news and not-so-good news on the progress of our new more Complex Fuel Systems feature and Drop Tanks. It looks like we will be able to include drop tanks for some of the later model Bf-109s in the sim along with their new fuel system modeling in the next update. The not-so-good news is that other aircraft will have to follow in future updates as we work to retrofit so many planes. We had hoped to be able to accelerate this process, but we have not been able to fill a couple of critical positions on the team in time to make this happen as fast as we want. However, these 109s really needed drop tanks so we added them first. There is a slight chance they won’t make this update if last minute bugs appear, but we are hopeful. Positive thoughts, please!

great and thanks for reply, hope there are no bugs and ijust wanted to fly alittle longer so instead of selecting unlimited fuel i thought hoe to lower fuel consumption or get more mileage for the bf109...drop tanks would be a great addition

Cruise at a lower power setting. Obviously.
