Bug report on Bf110 C-4/N (could be other bf110 models too; hadn't checked yet)

[FeuerFliegen]

I figured this was the best place to report bugs...

 

just had a sortie fail on me because I relied on the fuel systems being implemented correctly.

 

I got a leak in tank 1, so I switched the fuel cock on both engines to drain from tank No. 1.  once that was drained, I selected fuel cock on both engines to draw from tank No.2, and the first engine got fuel starved and died.  It appears that the first engine's fuel cock is reversed....

 

for engine 2, it correctly drained from tank No. 1.  But for engine 1, it is reversed; if you select fuel cock to drain from tank No.1, it draws from tank 2.  and if you select No.2, it draws from tank.1.

I registered, but never got the confirmation e-mail, even though I requested a second (and third) confirmation e-mail.

I was able to recreate this with the damage your plane script to caused a large leak in tank 1 (left) and fully drained it. I then observed each engine's fuel pressure while switching fuel cocks.

 

To engine 1 (left), tank 1 is right tank, tank 2 is left.

To engine 2, tank 1 is left tank, tank 2 is right.

Right; good to know you experienced the same thing.  Did you also use the C-4/N?

 

I would assume that this is not historically accurate?  I can't think of any reason that engine 1 would view the right side tank as tank 1, when the right engine views it as the opposite.  It was definitely frustrating when I changed both fuel cocks to select from tank 2, and was chasing a plane and my left engine died from fuel starvation, and I couldn't understand why.  I also was confused as to why my tank 2 continued to drain when I had both fuel cocks selected on tank 1.  At least I know now for future reference, but I think this should be fixed.

Hi FeuerFliegen,

 

there are some problems with the confirmation e-mails on the ATAG forum currently. See here:

 

 

I would wait one or two days. If you still don't have access, contact ATAG_Snapper. He will help you.

Ohh, so we use the same login name as the ATAG server?  Maybe that's why.  I'm familiar with the problem of ATAG confirmation emails (I signed up about a year ago and just got approved in the past few weeks)

 

 

Edit - nevermind, just tried my ATAG login and it still didn't work.
