sthompson Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I have figured out how to use chat in MP but there is no way I'm going to be able to type messages while flying. Yet other people seem to do that routinely. How? Third hand? Assistant? voice recognition software. What do you do? Somewhat relatedly, is there a way to ID other players. Last night someone on AerobaticsOnline server kept locking me up and the tone was driving me nuts to the point where I quit flying. Seems like there should be a way to PM another player, or at least figure out who is doing it. I'm Softball on Multiplayer.

doodenkoff Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Practice trim and power settings to get to a point where you can release the stick and be confident the plane won't go bonkers. Some, like the Su-25T are stupid simple to put in straight and level autopilot. Learn how your autopilot works.

104th_Maverick Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Point it at the blue stuff then type as fast as you can :D Also, if you are flying a FC3 aircraft you can always turn your RWR volume right down to stop people annoying you with the excessive lock. The default keys are - Ralt+, for RWR Volume down Ralt+. for RWR Volume up This is always the first thing I do when a friendly starts locking me for too long. In the VA server they have external views and F-10 see all enabled (last time I checked anyway), so if someone is locking you, simply press F10 and look in the direction from your aircraft that your behind locked from, should be pretty easy to tell who it is by doing this, then you can ask them directly to cut it out! ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 104th Phoenix Wing Commander / Total Poser / Elitist / Hero / Chad www.104thPhoenix.com www.facebook.com/104thPhoenix My YouTube Channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OperatorJack Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 ;3023520'] This is always the first thing I do when a friendly starts locking me for too long. It's nice when this happens to you in the MiG 21 and renders your RWR useless /да бойз/ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
