Nordic V2.1 bugs and issues
-
Today i found sth strange
Looks like JAS39 (both versions) are unable to finish air refueling when they are AI
Same in KTO2012. I have some suspicion - most planes have refuelRate set around 50
Grippen have 0.5. Ive chaned it for 50 also but as a result AI starts using afterburmer during refueling…
Anyway
Great work and im waiting for next update / new wersion
cheers -
Checking…
Try 5.0 instead of 50.
I just did it with 0.5 and one jet could run out of fuel before the other gets tanked up.
This is probably just a typo in fm . Change 0.5 to 5.0.
And see what happens.
Cheers

I did some tests for values from 2.5 to 500.
The problem is probably somewhere else.
It looks like the maximum limit for the collected fuel does not work.
At 500, the refueled aircraft, after a few seconds, tries to take fuel from the tanker but is too heavy and flies on the afterburner, but still loses altitude.
At 50, it takes longer but the result is the same.
At 2.5 and 5, refueling does not end (second plane ran out of fuel)
Generally, something is wrong with fuel consumption but I have no idea what. -
how about changing some parameters like this (from f18c.dat)
refuelSpeed 310
refuelAltitude 20000
refuelRate 50
AIBoomDistance 10
decelDistance 4500
desiredClosureFactor 0.40
longLeg 60
shortLeg 25
IL78Factor 28.0 -
I checked it…
Result is the same.
After some time refueling plane starts using the afterburner and is unable to finish refueling coz is to heavy…
Looks like problem is in fuel consumption and transfer rate but i have no idea how to fix it…
Anyway thx for trying -
I found there is a fuel rate mismatch…
in JAS39C/D vehicle data, fuel rate 56. in flight unit record, fuel rate 89. in squadron unit record, fuel rate 56.you may fix the fight unit-fuel rate mismatch and test again.

I give up…
Ive tried both values for fuel rate… also i copied fuel section from F18A dat and made same values on editor. Same result.
Unfortunatelly i dont konw every entire in .dat files and dont know corelation with values from editor.
I hope that the author or someone who coded FMs will be able to fix it.Greetings

I followed advice from ccc and they Refuel now.
Made a hotfix for 007.

hy i cant install this theater it say “BMS 4.33 not installed. Aborting”
im use BMS 4.33 U5
why this happen ?

I don’t know why it did, but if this happens you can use 7zip to extract “source” file.
Then do a manual install.
- Extract the “source” with 7zip and move the main folder “Add-On Nordic” into the folder …\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data. It will be exactly like this: …\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Add-On Nordic.
- Open your “Windows Explorer” and browse to this folder: …\Falcon BMS 4.33 U1\Data\Terrdata\theaterdefinition.
Inside this folder (means into “theaterdefinition”) there is a file named “theater.lst”. Right click on it and choose “Open with…” and then click on “Notepad” and to “OK”.
Now add exactly these lines as the last ones:
Add-On Nordic\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\NordicCWC.tdf
Add-On Nordic\Terrdata\theaterdefinition\Nordic.tdfFrom the menu of the “Notepad” click to “File” and then to “Save”. Then close “Notepad”.
3) You can now run the simulator and from the menu “THEATER” choose the “Nordic” or “cold war” and hit to “OK”.
Exit and restart the simulator and you are ready.
