Using wipers does not affect the new rain drops system

Recommended Posts

I could not find a topic where it would be reported. I understand that the system is new, but can we expect it to be repaired soon? Currently wipers, although they are turned on, do not wipe away raindrops from the glass.

Thanks for starting the thread Alienzo. I was a little disappointed that the wipers didn't wipe the rain away. It's kinda spoiling the immersion.

It's pretty cool that you are able to use the wipers, but the disapointment follows immediately when you see that the rain doesn't diappear despite the wipers swiping.

also, when you accelerate little bit, rain drops go away completely. i don't think this is realistic

Possibly , but the rotor wash is angled toward the windshield when accelerating , so it might be realistic

It varies with speed, I have noticed while accelerating in rain, you still get

little distortions on the glass that are rain drops being pushed to the sides

but once you go really fast that fades out

 

eg

No more pre-orders

i am not sure since i don't have solid prooves, but i "guess" it shouldn't be as if there is no rain at all. At least shouldn't be some sliding droplets. see the video

Wiper finction IRL

It does not disappear in real. Droplets get smeared so much you wish you never used that wiper.

 

Increasing speed helps much more. About 150-200km/h is enough to getting droplets blown away. Maybe even 120 is enough.

 

Another thing is that droplets acts as they are affected on fixed wing plane not RW. Instead reacting to rotor wash they react mainly to movement of helicopter and wind.

I can confirm that this bug (whilst not what you'd call really important), still exists.
