Fc2 In-Flight Refueling In Multiplayer

FC ReadMe Notes about Refueling:

Q: Will multi-player aerial refueling be supported in Flaming Cliffs 2.0?

A: Yes, but with some limitations.

1) Player being the host of a multi-player mission and won't have any problem refueling from the tanker. Also, the player will be able to see the positioning lights (KC-10A), baskets (IL-78 ) and will be able to hear radio communication with the tanker.

2) Player connecting to a server will be able to air refuel with a few differences.

-KC-10A limitation: No radio communication, no positioning lights

-IL-78M limitation: No radio communication

3) Important note for air refueling with the F-15C, A-10A and "weather" options.

Missions creator, if you're planning to add a tanker (KC-10A) to your multi-player missions, you will need to take in consideration the wind settings (Ground, 2000m, 8000m) under the "weather" tab options. Adding wind will prevent the client aircraft from connecting normally to the tanker as the autopilot will overcompensate for the wind and will make the air refueling impossible. You need to have wind set at 0 m/s at the altitude you're placing the tanker unit.

4) External tanks won't be refueled, only the internal tanks will be.

This ought to be quite interesting.

Cue the necessary double-entendres of aerial refueling. "Plugging the basket" "smooth boom operator" "Vehicular coitus".
