Features That Need to Come ASAP!

[Parin_Patel]

Infinite Flight’s done an outstanding job making this from a game to a flight simulator! WIth Project Metal in full swing, there are some features that are needed that would be highly appreciable if they came within the next few updates:

• Auto brakes
• Taxiway lights
• More exterior lights
• Roll spoilers
• Brighter lights
• Light reflections off the ground

Feel to reply if you think anything is still needed!

There are already feature request for all of these topics in #features, feel free to Vote for them. I’m to lazy at the moment to get the links to all of those topics and put them in this comment, sorry.

To supplement @Noah_Hunt 's laziness:

Autobrake System

Autobraking System The autobrake, whose components are located on the center panel of the Main Instrument Panel, is a deceleration feature used by aircraft. It automatically applies brake pressure during landing, allowing for pilots to focus on other tasks during the landing, such as flaring and landing the aircraft, as well as engaging reverse thrust and using rudder to maintain centerline. Autobrakes function similarly to spoilers; in fact, the autobrake system kicks in after the spoilers …

Taxiway Lights

With the new update out, the minimum visibility just got even more minimum. And I love flying IFR while in solo or whenever there is minimums on the servers. And when ever I land and am at taxi speed its a bit hard to find the taxiways. My idea is that we add the neon blue taxiway lights like at the real airport so people don’t accidentally go through grass or another aircraft in live because I know for a fact that some people would.

Aircraft Taxi Lights

Once again this is being requested because posts about it have been old and closed. Taxi lights would be a great option instead of using landing lights for taxiing, because we are supposed to turn them off when exiting the runway and just use taxi lights. But without them there is no light to taxi (see picture of taxi/landing lights below). [image] This would also help with realism, using checklists and for better light when taxiing (while not blinding the pilot ahead)

Roll Spoilers

What are roll spoilers? Roll spoilers are used in flight when banking, especially during takeoff and landing. They help increase/decrease the difference in pressure on the wings to help bank the aircraft faster. Why should roll spoilers be implemented? Roll spoilers should be implemented because they would add realism, and would help give the pilot more control when on climbout or on approach. What do roll spoilers look like?

Brighter strobe lights and beacon for the planes

So I couldn’t find anything related to “brighter beacon and strobe lights” so I made this a feature it would be cool for FDS to add brighter strobe lights and beacon lights For the planes because usually you can’t see em or they are barely lit up during the day and especially during the night wouldn’t it be cool to see the lights bright and illuminating the ground and everything ? I wanted FDS to implement this feature because during the night time time there’s usually nothing to look at becau…

Landing/Taxi Lights illuminate the ground

This really bugs me because the landing lights in infinite flight are useless. Landing lights in IF would help pilots see what’s ahead as well as other pilots can see their plane. And we would also benifit from Landing Lights actual uses, illuminating the runway at poorly lit airports, and helping out with low visibility approaches. Here would be an example of landing lights illuminating the ground: [IMG_1880] credits to What is the diffference between landing lights, taxi lights and external l…
