    Actually on Main Arena we have our beloved map medrl2.
    It is quite big one. Distances between fields are relatively long.
    So why we have FuelDivider set to 0,9 ? It entail greater fuel consumption then last tod FuelDivider 0,6 at Med3, which is smaller and has short distances between fields.:eek: :eek: :eek: ... it makes no sense :eek: :eek: :eek:
    That's very iritating when you want make for example a long hunt sortie with 100% fuel and you fly to enemy area and you got to return after few minutes to land safely at your field. It is almost impossible to fly deeper into enemy area cause you have no chance to go back cause fuel loss.
    So is it possible to change fueldivider to 0,6 which is IMO more appropriate for bigger and with longer-between-fields-distances maps ?
    ... or is it inversely and I'm wrong
    ... Arena administrators ? Maleti ? Mixer ?

    from what I know, the higher the fueldiv setting the more fuel we have, soooo...
    why lower it?

    btw fueldiv parameter seems to be fuel consume divider (works like fuel amount multiplier)

    Division and multiplication are 6 of one and half a dozen of the other.
    And yeah, fuel does seem to get drank quickly in this whatever it is called.

    much too low, should be some 0,9 at least, or 1.0
    more fuel -> more fun -> more players online
    less fuel -> less fun -> less players online
    and low fuel lever makes quake wars between nearby aifields
    it sucks man, same as your hmack

    i just dont get it
    its old gme, but its strong side is gameplay
    why to kill gameplay
    to slaughter this game to the end?
    anyone said fuel lvl is too high?
    now its impossible to climb to 6kft
    because it takes 40% fuel
    more fuel more fun guys, set it to 0,9 and everyone will be happy

    Yeah, I don't get it. Why can't they just set it to 0.9 once and then leave the fuel settings alone, god dammit?
