Hello there!
I've been following the mods' progress silently for a while and honestly, I'm way more hyped for this mod than I'm for the Apache.
But I have some questions that I need to ask because they don't let me sleep at night. Don't worry, they are not about the release date
I want to use this mod to train some friends of mine and my questions are:
1.) Will the flight instructor be able to turn off crucial systems like the HUD, HSI, Radio to simulate failures?
1.5) Do systems like TACAN, Waypoints and intercom (SRS) work?
2.) Will the backseat environment be clickable?
-I've been using the MB339 mod to teach people the basics in DCS and it bugs me that I can't really do anything back there to either help or challenge my student.
3.) Is it possible for the instructor to do the startup from the backseat? If yes, will the pilot in the front notice it due to eventual synchronization errors?
This leads me to my last question:
4.) I already know that you don't have the official SDK for multicrew and that this can result in synchronization issues.
- How bad are these issues? Can you predict them/Do you already know how often they occur? In the MB339, the gear and flaps are not synchronized. Also, you have to join the aircraft after the startup is done, because the backseat client does not recognize the pilot spooling up the plane. This is a bit unfortunate for a trainer, but it's not totally gamebreaking.
Thank you in advance and have a nice week!
PS. Is there a way to donate? I think your work should be rewarded.
