Another little innovation for damaged plane fires
« on: May 27, 2024, 04:19:48 PM »
When a plane runs out of fuel whatever fire and smoke effects were being generated at that moment are retained. I would think that for fuel tanks, upon running dry the fire intensity should be expected to diminish.

And so I've added a new check for the fuel quantity; when reaching zero a boolean is set true. This is then used in the same manner as:

- Altitude is for activating/de-activating contrails.
- Airspeed is for changing to the ground fire/smoke effects when the speed drops below a threshold indicating the plane should be taxying or parked. (The stock scheme used speed only, but this meant ground effects would switch on when the plane stalled in a zoom climb--ugly! I've added a low altitude above ground threshold as well, which assures the ground effects will be used ONLY when the plane really is on the ground.)

Now upon a plane's fuel quantity going to zero, a heavy fire from a fuel tank will step down to a smaller fire.

Note that fuel consumption/loss is greatly increased when the damage is heavier, with the fuel running out faster. And so instances of a badly damaged plane that has no gas left yet have furious fires from the tank(s) would not be uncommon.


I'm contemplating adapting this to engine fires as well...

To give an indication of the degree of complexity I've given to Aircraft.doSetTankState, which results in a much greater variety of effects, below are the stock method and my modded method. Dare to compare! ;)

Another nice improvement, good ideas as usual!  :)

Well done!

All these enhancements are very nice, but do they work in BAT 422HF4?

I'm developing in B.A.T. 4.0, and I'm pretty confident most if not everything can be adapted to any later B.A.T. version. There is a class or two which I cannot successfully compile when I try to do so for later versions; a Java dabbler not much better than me could handle this.
