We have updated our server and missions of our weekdays rotation because of version 1.021
Changes:
-Deleted all the town names in the map, now that they are in the regular game map (thanks Jason!) -Added SPAD 7 to most of the missions because it fits in nicely (both 150hp/180hp and both RFC and French airforce). Beware of the "kick back to main screen if you don't have the field mod for the SPAD 180hp" bug! -Added fuel lock. Most planes will have a fuel lock around 50%-60%-70% This depends a bit on the plane set and date in the mission. Only the big bombers have lower fuel loads.
Current rotation:
SYN - Battleground Verdun - Spring 1918 v2.1 SYN - Battleground Ypres - June 1917 v1.1 SYN - Battleground Albert-Bapaume - May 1918 v1.5 SYN - Battleground Arras-Bapaume - April 1917 v1.4 SYN - Battleground Peronne - Summer 1917 v2.1 SYN - Battleground Cambrai - Autumn 1918 v2.2
As always, server will restart at 14.00 UTC !!!

Really curious how it will be with the fuel locking

I actually have a concern about fuel locking, but from the other side of things. Many times I will take 100% fuel because many planes seem to handle better for me. I find shooting is a little easier without the massive pitching up of an empty fuel tank. Also, sometimes you can prevent someone from getting a cheap kill by putting one bullet in your tank, as you have enough fuel to make it home. Though there is something to be said for a "level" playing field. But of course, if you find yourself in a fair fight, you really fooked up!

that is a good point mugue, i wonder if you can have a choice of fuel loads, i.e 100%, 75% or 50%

A great option would have been to be able to set the minimum amount of fuel that one can select, so that if you wanna go with 100% (as I usually do with the SPAD XIII) you can do it, while preventing people to take off with 10%...but still, it's a step forward already.

This is only for weekdays. Even at 50% you should have 1 hr of flying time or more which is a lot more than most us manage to stay alive!

I had a blast last night. Maybe you didn't compensate but there were some interesting dogfights out there. I even battled some camels in my DXII..and didn't lose So something fits ...

I was just on the server for a few flights.. Verdun Spring 1918 came on, and while it ran there were a number of complaints about the accuracy of the AAA around the targets (specifically the southern German factory, but likely some of the others too). I said I'd pass the feedback along; there you have it.
