Current MA/TA settings

This thread concerns current settings of MA/TA posted by MA/TA admins.

@Pilots: comments or flame should NOT be open here, please.

 

Maybe this is a good point, to put a link to the wiki of the actual arena-admins:
Arena-Overview
AWT-Settings
Discussion about AWT

at the FH-Announcement I wrote at 2006-01-30:

 

the ETO-Map is using the same values that were used last ToD at AWT.

 

Current TA settings

For the Poll about the Lethality1-Parameter, the Value is at 1.4 at the Trainingsarena.

The actual Map at the TA is med3 (see http://www.martin-struwe.de/wiki/index.php/Arena_FreeHost#Test-Arena).

Parameter-Changes at the TA are listed also at my wiki.

It seems to be useful (for Bombers and Dogfights) to have 2000 Meter Air-Starts on some fields (for example f1 and f2).

Killshooter is off (for fast Dogfights).

The Radar-Range is 20 Miles.

Every Plane is available at every Field.

 

Ground vehicle icons?

 

tanks and hmacks are allways visible like other planes:
PLANERANGELIMIT 8100 (d27)
ENAMYIDLIM 4500 (d15)

A new ToD started at 2006-02-25 again in the ETO-Arena.
We changed no settings, but we ask for a map-change.

 

Thank you for the link to the wiki.

 

Soon we will have a new Map with the same settings:

Icons are changed to d14, which is fine for me. Only one drawback: d14 is jeep range, so when you are at that distance from jeep it may be too late to evade. Pls, increase to d16. Or disable hmacks ;-P

 

You are talking about the Main-Arena?
After a ToD is starting in 1945-08 all settings are changed.
Two hours before your posting I changed all parameters back and announced it here.

 

You can find fuel consumption/expected flighttime for all planes in FHL 1.66 in the link below:

http://www.martin-struwe.de/wiki/index.php/Fuel_Consumption

The following data is indicated for FUELDIV=1.0 with 100% engine power (throttle).

Please note that current FUELDIV value at MA is set to 0.6.
If you wish to get expected flighttime at MA you have to multiply tabulated value to 0.6.

This data was kindly presented by Exec.

 

If someone got a message "Cannot connect to Host" while trying enter MA after watching the pilot list at arena, just do the following:

Run notepad or another editor and edit the file, named "hosts" (this file has no extention) which is located at:

// Windows 2000:
\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

// Windows XP:
\WINNT\system32\drivers\hosts

// Windows 98:
\WINDOWS\hosts

And remove the following string from this file:
"217.23.130.21 wb.chph.ras.ru"

Save this file and run FHL to have fun.

PS: If you are using "notepad" trying to find and edit file "hosts" over folders, you should choose file type at Notepad file open dialog as "All Files" to make file "hosts" visible.

 

there is a small change at the TA for this weekend.
gunrad 0.10 will be 0.01

2006-07-03: because of the poll, 0.01 stays for July and August.

 

GUNRAD, BULLETRADIUS value changed

The arena-admins established constant parameters at the main-arena from Feb 2006.

But because of the overwhelming voting we use two new values in the next ToD:

GUNRAD will be reduced from 0.10 to 0.01.

BULLETRADIUS will be reduced from 0.10 to 0.01.

See the parameter description.

In one week, we start a new poll to decide, if this change become permanent.

fortune at MA/TA is incurable principle.
keep shooting until vital part is destroyed.

other flames fade in the view of Aike's post.

 

The Power of the 20mm is increased: Difference
The Parameters are described at the wiki.

 

maybe, the 1.3 was a little too high.
i want to ask the other arena-admis.

because we have a new map (AWT), i changed lethality2 today to 1.15!
check ".show" to stay up to date.

 

The value of Lethality2 (weight multiplier for 20..25mm cannons) was set to 1.15 until end of TOD.

 

We will use 1.15 for the future.
At the moment, there is no Test- and no Scenario-Arena.Actiually there is no Test-Arena.
