Hey Phli,

Just wanna to ask you a question, In your design of Manuver, what is the criteria for it?

Based on Historical data?
Based on Comments from [real]Pilots?
Based on own thought?



Just wonder as I see Triplane, it just like a mini version for Snipe, but the info I get from Internet can't let me think why their Manuver is designed in their way.

P.


Maneuvers were based on plane vs plane with the tripe and Camel the two base a/c. from there it was a matter of researching historical data, comments from real pilots, (the reason the Pfalz D-III has a snap turn left), and a formula I designed that I can no longer find but wish I could. It pretty accurately predicted how maneuverable an a/c would be when compared with another and was confirmed by pilot comments. Hexes aren't the best way to do and air game, but it is what we have. I always tell people that hexes are a "coarse" way to play air war games since you are limited to 60 degree turns. Since the Snipe was designed after the Tripe it is more of a super-Tripe than the other way around
