Hi Lopan,
Good to know that withthe bomber into the sea. I have been shooting bombers over the chanel in MP, I have to check more whether I also get credited for the kill.
Some tips in case they are of help:
"You could make an autoexec which would run at the start of every mission, then the player could set the keys to be "pressed automatically", like disabling mirror, magnetos position, fuel cock etc."
Actually your Joystick coud have such "macros" which you could write.
"When you select the comms, the screen at the top right gets all cluttered with the status messages and comms mixed, I can't read anything."
You could make more "info windows" place them at different areas of the screen and with different font color. This makes thing easier.
Keep Alt pressed and click with the mouse on the window. Right click to see the options and start experimenting. Many posibilities on the way to have a window be shown and the information that should appear in it.
Important: Learn to create a new window and practise using the new window; Leave your original window unchanged until you feel you canmaster the creating windows process well enough to make permanent changes! (many people post in the forum first time "I have lost all my information, how do I bring it back again?
)
In the hope that it may be of use.
Happy flying!
