FireFighter X 1.83 released

Hello @ll,
Fire Fighter X version 1.83 has been released today. Please allow for up to 48 hours until it is deployed to your account in the shop where you bought it. Uninstalling the old version is not necessary, but it doesn't hurt either.

• Starting with this version, FFX will no longer just drop retardant when you press the trigger! You have to arm the drop system first! To do that, just click on the green LED on the top left of the drop control dialog, or use the appropriate button on the gauges.
• The same is true when you want to scoop water with a skimmer aircraft or helicopter bucket. You have to arm the scooping system first (green LED on the right or buttons on the gauges)
• Please refer to the FFX user manuals for details!!

Other than that, FFX now gives you more control over AI aircraft from inside the simulator itself (menus are accessible with Shift&F9, Shift&F10). Furthermore you can trigger siren signals with Shift&F11 (drop imminent) or Shift&F12 (drop complete). Siren signals are propagated over the network too.
At the end of the users manual you will find a table listing all the simulator variables and events that FFX uses, in case you want to assign Joystick buttons or create your own gauges.
Best regards
