MB 152 Gun site and ground handling tweaks

I have done a bit of tweaking to Bismarcks stunning MB 152. I increased the steering angle on the tail wheel to give the plane better ground handling and I swapped out the gun site image and tweaked the eye point setting for better forward view and target visibility.

Tail Wheel Tweak:

Go to the aircraft.cfg, find contact points. Replace the first line with this one:

point.0 = 1, -18.100, 0.000, -2.800, 3200, 0, 0.300, 90.000, 0.900, 2.000, 0.500, 7.500, 5.000, 0, 170.0, 170.0

The tail wheel tweak will allow the plane to have better turning abililty on the ground.

Gun site tweak:

In aircraft.cfg, find the [VIEWS] section and replace the line with this one:

eyepoint=-0.2,0,2.60

I will attach the new site bmp as a zip file. Save it to your computer, unzip it and drop the enclosed gsite.bmp into the texture folder of the MB 152. Using the adjusted eyepoint and new gun site image, I had a much better time bringing my guns to target on those pesky Georges.

The real thing didn't turn easy at the ground. It used a skid that DON'T TURN! It was substituted by a wheel that turns at the MB.155.
