1C Team Questions and Requests (closed)

Type of improvement: Ground control (vehicles, guns, girls etc) for any player joining the server while sitting in the waiting queue.


Explanation of proposals: For servers that have a waiting queue (for whatever reason, specific game started / no free for all etc), players can use ground vehicles while they wait.

A player can joins server while a current game is in progress (and cannot allow newly joined players) and has the option to participate in ground action. When his / her place in the queue finally allows entry as a pilot, they are given the option to join in the list of pilots.


Benefits: Immersion; gives players something to do while waiting in the queue. Also players wanting to join a specific / favorite server or wait on their favorite side can do so.

Cons: possible lag if tons of players are in the queue using ground equipment, players will be given less chance to be "forced" into playing a side they normally would not play, team balancing harder due to players not forced into a side.

Type of improvement:
Search lights focusing to AA gunners target sector on the sky.

Explanation of proposals:
At 1st we need functioning search lights.
At nighttime any (man controllable) AA gun directing gun to the sky causes automated search lights start scanning the same part of the sky.

Benefits:
More immersion.
Ability to defend against night raids more effectively.

Type of improvement: Manually config the joystick output sensitiviness.

Explanation of proposals: Allow the player to build its own control response curves like in IL2 using a tool like IL2 Joy Config.

Benefits: Great for the user of low end joysticks and more precision handling the aircrafts.

Type of Improvement: Adjustment of the AI skill sliders

Explanation of proposal: Introduce a new slider, for ground attack/bombing

Benefits: Separate bombing accuracy from turret gunner accuracy, currently, the only way to get consistent hits on target from an AI bomber vs. a smaller, moving target is to have their AI Gunnery set to Veteran or above. This produces nice ground attack results, but also increases the gunners' accuracy to the point of getting 100% kills within 2 seconds of enemy aircraft entering their arc of fire, regardless of approach angle or speed.

Type of Improvement: Add in Options/Aircraft "Engine Start" assignment

Explanation of proposal: Allow user to map a key to start aircraft engine(s)

Benefits: Allows user to designate key to start engine since the "Starter" button on the panel is not clickable and no assignment in Options exists.

There is the option "Toggle engine...." which does exactly that!

I tried that, and select engine last night, and they don't work.

Did you have complex engine management turned on? This definitely works.

Which of the select/toggle engine options did you use and what key(s) did you assign?
