Santa's wishlist for BMS

That makes me wonder, what is a realistic distance for lights to show up based on our eye sight?
Depends A LOT on lights intensity, weather conditions, approach geometry … I would say about 8Nm.
-
@b0bl00i As @Dee-Jay says, lots of variables. I would say one of the things that surprised me in my early days of aviation of airport lighting is how far away you can see rotating beacons. I’ve seen some 20NM+ on the right nights and altitudes. Far further than you can actually make out a smaller airport during the day.

is there any chance to improve the ejection sequence in BMS? I saw long times ago this video and it would be nice if the game has something similar .
The uploader was @Dee-Jay so maybe he knows something about it . If I remember well, The source file was downloadable sometime . This element not just eye candy because it has very big influences the campaign or dogfight outcome. I mean If the pilots survive the crash that He still counting in the statistics. so He won’t be KIA maybe only POW or MIA or they launch a rescue mission for him. And later on He can fly an another mission, -

I’ll shoot for the moon; make the Phantom and Tornado avionics, and give me a backseat to go with them.
And also, give me multicrew so I can tell the nose gunner who to shoot at while I kick back and navigate.

@Dee-Jay
Thank you for the link.But I got error during the setup

i am impressed about the f-15c ,i start to change my mind about the capability of bms and what the team can do , at the end bms
could be with the right decisions not an only an F-16 simulator,the truth is that i wait 4.38 but i welcome with all my heart the implementation of other aircrafts too with the quality and love that you show with f-16.
i would like to see f-18c also Mirage2000-5 and from the other side su-27 and mig 29 if you are able to, but from what i read in the how the BMS team works thread this might take much time or never be done , this needs ppl more ppl or the existing ones to have the desire to make it and work like crazy, so for now
i just wait 4.38 and i welcome the new direction that bms is turned to . -
i would like 2 things:
-
can the launcher update the game with one click when updates are out. how wonderful when 4.37.4 or 4.38 comes out and i can click update and not have to worry about uninstalling falcon, removing registry, reinstalling, applying update, setting up controls etc…
-
this always seemed strange to me that the landing light is a direct beam light 12 of the nose and the taxi lights were all the lights underbelly. coming from civil aviation this is exactly the opposite - is this modeled correctly in the sim? always seemed backwards to me.
-
-
Not really a wish, just thinking about that what if we have sometimes some random switches being in other state than default? It would make sense for the interior checklist.

@hiuuz
Apparently the crew that’s working on the plane sets everything up in a same, consistent way, also following checklists.But you can use this: https://forum.falcon-bms.com/topic/21008/falcon-bcc-randomize-cockpit-switches-during-a-cold-start
It’s not updated for 4.37.3 though, I have to check if there are new or changed callbacks.
-
@hiuuz This is part of the pre flight check by ground crew. So everything is set up as should be before the pilot sit in the cockpit to start.

Yes this is correctly modeled

Yes I know, but there could be days when ground crew has a bad day, as everybody else has. By the way, if the ground crew set up everything, then what is “the interior checklist” for?

Due to current work schedule I haven’t been able to fly as much as I would like too. I’m still flying 4.36 since the upgrades in 4.37 would require learning more procedures to be able to survive i.e. the jammer. I love the sim and the dedication of the dev team. Only thoughts I’ve had is the pilot profile making the trip into each upgrade. I’ve also noticed that AWACS will warn other flights in the package of enemy aircraft approaching but never contact my flight directly. I was also wondering if enemy units shouldn’t be updating on the briefing map and staying marked in their last known location.
Just a couple of thoughts I’ve had. I love this sim and this site. I always learn something new whenever I log in.

The first thing that hooked me on this sim was taxing out for takeoff at night with all the lights. Made me think bask to being at the naval air station night ops. This was Flacon Allied Force and to what this has developed into is more then I can thank you for. So not much at night for landscapes, but all the thought that you have to do so you can try one more time to make it through a mission. I feel like I have only scratched the surface.
-
@hiuuz there is not for only one crew should be bad day to forget something . I understand what you would like with it, but it is not the case in RL. the checklist is only to make sure everything in the right order to prevent something wrong in the start procedure. Only the one case where I can imagine this If the pilots managing the flight by itself at the outside from the home airport maybe on a forward operation base without ground crew . And in the game it should be remember the last mission setup when you finish the mission and maybe you don’t switch off all .
-
@repvez Yes, I got the point. I’m not crying for this, just thinking about, but I let it go

Hello Forum
In that other sim, you know that one which begins with D, Well, in that it is possible to Boresight the AGM 65……on the ground! Can Santa deliver that please?Also, in BMS now, the F15 has a version of the Link 16. Can we have that in the F16 please.
Thanks,
Merry Christmas.

Random weather would be good. Not sure how you could do it, maybe have say 50 weather maps in a folder and the game picks one at random.

F4Wx 1.05 uses real weather and you can make several days of weather and use real time or use a random one.
