If the devs can't provide this information I'd sugguest the ServerAddIn could read the chat log and interact with the users by chat, e.g.

Player: !airGroups
Server: JG27, 41Squadron, ...
Player: !selectGroup 41Squadron
Player !aircrafts
Server: A(SpitfireI), B(SpitfireI), ...
Player: !selectAircraft A
Player: !ready
...
Host: !fly

In which folder can I find the log.txt?

Someone asked this before but devs did not give an answer. Probably they want to include it in next patch. You can write to Geniok http://www.sukhoi.ru/forum/showthrea...3&daysprune=45
and ask him to send you small example of add-in code. He speaks English I think. If he does not, ask Small_Bee http://www.sukhoi.ru/forum/showthrea...5&daysprune=45 IIRC Small_Bee sent his example of client add-in code to Geniok initially.

No. We considered it a waste of time to wait for squadmates to join a coop session in coop menu. We preferred to wait for everyone in a dogfight session because you can practice some duels or gunnery on dogfight server while waiting for others to get online. And shooting AI is also waste of time in a squad training imho as well as flying to target in coop mode. The idea was to practice teamwork in as many dogfights as possible in a given time. 5-7 minutes per 5vs.5 dogfight was enough.

Everyone has their own preferences and training procedures of cause. Let's hope we have the interface coming in the next patch.
