For the record altitude and temperature already have an effect on performance.
Temperature is according to ISA though at the moment, so the ISA deviation is zero...
And because of the decreasing density you have longer takeoff and landing distances just because you need more true airspeed and thus kinetic energy is higher
The user interface on mobile is mostly limited by space available on smaller devices, for the full realism we offer a product that runs on pc, mac or even linux, where you can connect any number of input devices and have free options to assign any slider that you want.
You can already do a lot on mobile, e.g. use the touch input to trim the aircraft. Not ideal because you need to look down. You can also just engage the copilot for a few seconds which will also trim out your aircraft.
Brakes and airbrakes are both on the slider that also controls the throttle, pull them down and you can adjust airbrakes and brakes.
Trim doesn't really need any adjustments if leave the auto-trim on. With that enabled your trim will be adjusted when you keep holding the elevator input deflected.
I still cannot find this tutorial at the wiki. Only by using the link provided can I locate it. Crazy.
It's not a tutorial in the wiki, rather on the aerofly main page.
We're all for realism which is why we want to improve on the fuel system. But there are more people than you might think that prefer to fly around in a carefree manner, e.g. full afterburner f18 to the moon and back.
Even I use the infinit fuel option in other simulators, e.g. when I do landing practices. Sure it's fun to fly a go around in a heavy with only 200 kgs of fuel left... see how far you get. But after crashing a few times and having to restart the others simulator which sometimes takes more than 5 minutes... that is a bit too much penalty for my taste and so I set airplanes to un-damageable and having infinite fuel 
https://www.aerofly.com/tutorials/copilot/
(I see I was a second too slow)
We can add that engines go out after the fuel runs out but after about a day we'll get the first requests for "infinit fuel". So unless we can offer that option we don't want to force all users to keep track of their fuel, especially since you cannot yet adjust the fuel that you start with. But once this is added the engines will probably spool down when your fuel runs out.
Again, when the time for the full fuel simulation comes including reducing the mass of the tanks then there will be options to change the fuel on board.
My current implementation of the fuel system actively vents fuel overboard when the fuel tank is full which is not ideal, I can check if that is an easy fix. Then I could increase the fuel capacity but right now we got much bigger things on the agenda.
Welcome to the world of aviation where everyone thinks their units are best and only the unit of time seems to be a commonly agreed thing.
Don't worry, once we add more advanced options for fuel or weight and balance you will probably get the option to switch to your preferred unit system.
As long as your fuel burn and your fuel amount is measure with respect to the same units you should have no issue of having a feel for when it's about to run dry since the fuel quantity divided by the fuel burn always yields time in the same unit. In pounds it just uses 2.2x as much fuel looking at each number.
If you asked a physicist they would probably change everything to kg and meter/second in an instant. And most airlines in Europe use kg exclusively, runway lengths are indeed measured in meters over here and probably almost everywhere outside the US and more and more airlines in the US are also changing over to the international standard unit of mass, which is the kilogram.
Since nowadays both the foot and the pound are defined by their SI-unit counter parts these units are mere factors that are there to confuse us
We're using SI units in Aerofly because we never want to worry about units during our calculations.
Why don't you ask the manufacturer and they couldn't stick to the international standard... he he
I guess we're stuck with altitudes in feet and speed in knots, because of the nice separation of 1000ft (305m) between aircraft, nice 250kt/10000ft speed limit (instead of 128m/s, 3048m). China and Russia are indeed using metric altitudes already.
Well we model what the Learjet we flew with had on its display, which was KGS.
But I guess this is not a Learjet specific setting that you want, right? What about the b747, a320, q400, etc? I assume you would prefer units to be in LBS there as well?
Are you using any external software that affects the weather?
What kind of assignments do you use for visibility?
Does this happen when you use aerofly in Safe-Mode?
I can't promise anything but when we do our own sound engine we sure want to make it physically accurate and that would include the sonic boom
This is on the list for when we overhaul the sound engine. With the current sound engine it is not possible to detect the angle to the camera.
Sounds like your anti-virus software is interfering.
I can confirm the DR400 does not respond to the add Pilot_Head fix
Perhaps a new aircraft converter is also needed
PilotHead not Pilot_Head
The aircraft does not need to be converted again, the human model is not part of the aircraft model.
Die Auflösung der Welt ist so gewählt, dass man aus Reiseflughöhe mit dem Airliner noch gut weltweit fliegen kann, ohne ein Loch in der Landschaft zu haben.
The removal of the graphical pilot head was intentional in preparation for features in the future.
The screenshot was taken with the advanced camera on a wide screen monitor, just tilt the head to the right and down and zoom in and it should look similar.
Changing altitudes is not yet supported but could very well be in the future.
Display MoreHi zusammen.
Ja Aerofly ist schon gut...
Aber ich habe da auch so mein Problem mit manchen Dingen.
Komme halt aus der Flusi FSX Szene, und da war vieles anderst und irgendwie einfacher.
Es gibt unzählige Plattformen, wo man sich AddOns downloaden kann, aber bei Aerofly hör ich immer nur Rechte etc. pp.
Hab ich Verständnis für, aber wenn ich etwas erstelle und dies kostenfrei der Allgemenheit zur Verfügung stelle...dann ist das doch Ok.
Das größte Problem ist die Auflösung der Ground Texturen um einen vernünftigen VFR Flug machen zu können, und die sind mit Rechten belegt.
Warum hat Aerofly nicht gleich von Anfang an die Auflösung so raus gebracht, das wir nicht alle einzeln da dran rum basteln müssen??
Grüßle ULi
Man darf nicht einfach die Daten von anderen (wie Google oder Microsoft) kostenlos weiter verteilen, das widerspricht dem Urheberrecht.
...Weil nicht jeder Nutzer 2TB übrig hat haben wir die Auflösung der Welt reduziert auf 9GB.
Steam automatically updates all your dlcs too so uninstalling and reinstalling won't change anything. You can also verify the game file integrity in steam with does a thorough check of all files.
