Using Auto Mix?

While flying WWII War-Birds, how is the Air/Fuel Mix managed?

When something is a yes/no or on/off in binary (or nearly any code really), 1 is always yes or on and 0 is always off or no.
 
...thanx kids :salute: ...as I was staring into space I remembered another one: In some missions there will be a constant directional wind... how and where is this configured? (I'll be danged if I can find it)
 
Hi Popsaka,
aren't there specific weather xml files for some missions? You could always specify wind stuff in the weather file.

...hey, mate. That's what I would have thought too, but after flying a windy mission I looked in the weather file mentioned in the mission heading and no joy...
...plus, you know how certain clouds toss your aircraft around? Where and how would the physics be configured for that(?) -possibly its related.
 
Okay, thats got me curious. turns to 250Gb HDD backup drive and riffles through files....here's something out of a File under the Weather folder in MAW - for an Italy Tour mission....

"<Weather Name="ItalyTour Mission Weather">
<BackgroundWeather precipType="HeavyRain" skyboxCloudType="BrokenClouds" MaxAltitude="0" MinAltitude="1000" fogColor="4288332017" Windspeed="0" windDir="0">"

The last two entries are where you specify wind speed and wind direction. As you say they will be constant, unless the mission calls for one of the dynamic weather files to make things fun.

Haven't heard of any editable code for turbulence. The stuff about cloud turbulence is presumably hard coded. However I wouldn't mind betting that the turbulence effect only applies to certain cloud types (like cumulus) coz when I fly up through some cloud layers thers no turbulence effect.

So fer example (sorry couldn't resist your parlance) if a mission specified clouds of the thick and chunky type and you flew through them I assume you'd get turbulence.

...Thanx for cool response, mate. One related phenomena is what I've come to think of as the CFS3 gravity kwirk -that is things like sliding backwards rather violently or having the aircraft rest precariously on one wheel... I finally found restarting the mission gets rid of it. -tho' discovering this remedy took years! :icon_lol:
