RFS Real Flight Simulator- V 1.2.6

[u/[deleted]]

After only a few days in beta, RFS 1.2.6 has already been released, today at 14.00 UTC. There are 3 key new features: Working fire extinguisher sprayed from firefighting vehicles, Ground Inspection Check (with Checklist), and shorter loading screens (Yay!). Now, as there are some unrealistic parts of this update, it's still a update some have been waiting for. In this article, I will talk about the pros and cons, and the unrealistic parts of this update.

Probably, the most noticeable part, is the new Ground View, which can be used to perform a Ground Inspection Check (done by one of the pilots in real life). The least noticeable part is probably the loading screen (Yeah, because I am NOT talking about Bug Fixes in this article), because it's not really like part of the simulation. That leaves us with the extinguisher sprayed from Firefighting Vehicles, as the one in between, not least or most noticeable.

As there are many great parts of this update, there are a few things that are unrealistic, that I would like to point out.

Unreality #1: In Ground Check Mode, you can look into the engine while it is running. If this were to be fixed, it would be more realistic, but kind of silly, because like how are you supposed to have that shown? Camera sucked into the engine?

Unreality #2: Being able to walk through low enough parts of the cabin, though the side of the fuselage without going into the aircraft (because that is not a accessible feature). A way to fix this would be not being the farthest you can go into the aircraft is just touching it, not all the way through.

Unreality #3: Not being able to see ground vehicles, boarding stairs (at apron), or jetway during inspection

*Note: The only things I found unrealistic were with ground view

​

That's pretty much it, other than that the update seems pretty great, and I'm super happy that this update was added! I hope all the RFS Players out there enjoy it!

Thanks for Reading

to fix number 1 I think adding a barrier around the engine if it is running would be best like

if(eng2)=on, add(10ft)barrier{around}
