Regarding COOP mission transfer encryption.

IL2 had many COOP hosts before the missions were encrypted, once encrypted the dogfight numbers grew and we lost a lot of fun coop hosts.

If I'm correct the missions were encrypted due to 3rd party licence sales (addons).

Is it possible to have the host select to encrypt his missions when hosting, this way he can release a mission or protect it at his discretion, with 3rd party addons already protected.

One way a lot of people (myself included) learned the full mission builder was to look at a mission someone had just hosted and you had flown in, then see how they "made it" , this encouraged at lot of new pilots to tweak and build missions and could do the same for the new sim.

The "art" of mission building has been left to a handful of people and needs new blood in the "new sim", the ability for hosts to directly share their missions once again will encourage more COOP hosts and mission builders alike.

Cheers
