Reverse throttle.
« on: February 28, 2011, 22:15:13 »
When I set the throttle inn A-Stearn position on the Red Eagle, Bugsier, and maybe some other ships. Nothing happens. Why? The throttle zerolevel is at 50%, so it indicate reversed throttle.

In order to get astern power with "Bugsier 2" you must first rotate the controller 1800 and then move your mouse FORWARDS just as if you were driving her ahead. If you just try to pull the lever backwards nothing will happen. This also is required for some other vessels.

I know I can turn the stearing controller 180deg, but the red field is marked with a-stern. That is why I asked.

The Bugsier has no reverse..To go backwards you must turn the thrusters 180 degrees..
