Will generators consume fuel in the DGIV ?

I believe that topic was discussed some time ago. I believe that Dan stated that the power management would be very time
consuming to program and that it would provide little value. The idea here is that he wants to keep the DG newbie -friendly.

I don't necessarily disagree that some type of generator consumption wouldn't be cool, but then you have to determine how
much fuel would be consumed based on how many devices are in use, and how much fuel would the device consume based on a
large, medium, or small trip. Big time programming.

I believe this work is almost down since we can see in realtime the energy consumption in Ampère. But if this has been
already discussed, I am not waiting for answer

when dan is still working put autoage on the DGIV ok

man I just can't wait much longer. The DG4 keeps sounding better and better. Anyone got a guess when it comes out?

Dan, did you think about my idea of vectored hovers, for extra stability in vertical phases ?
It would be nice, especially if the payload is not in line with the hovers.

Let the poor Dan recover!

Vectored hovers? Are you seriosly? Use stick to obtain optimum angles.

For the DGIII and even the DG XR1: If you ever downloaded the gimbiling mod for the DG, you may have a CTD when
you use pitch or yaw. If you need to fix this, replacing DeltaGlider.dll should do it. A full cleanup of Orbiter shouldn't be
necessary.
