Improve wingman realness

[Cyb0rg]

IMO this is relativity easy to implement.

 

Add the fowling wingman radio commands :

 

1 .. Lights off - Tell Tell your Wing to Turn all lights off

2 .. Say Position - Ask your wing current position

3 .. Say Damage - Ask your wing aircraft damage

4 .. Say Status - What are your wingman doing now

5 .. Say Fuel - Ask your wingman about fuel level

 

:book:

I’ve also noticed, when your wingman is totally defensive, he doesn’t call you for help. He just follows you around hoping you’ll notice.

They are going to eventually sort this out, the AI is getting a revamp, but when that happens who knows, people have been asking for this for years, myself included, especially the fuel state.

Could not agree more with Cyb0rg.

Just want to add one thing though:

 

If told to have their lights on, the wingmen should use the same light settings as the player (flight lead). That way the player could control the wingmens lights indirect

Afaik the wingmen are already supposed to replicate your exterior lighting settings. Might be bugged, though (haven't paid attention to that lately).

At least F-15C wingmen copy my current nav lights' state. Not applicable to strobe/anti-collision though. Seems ridiculous when they dogfight and flash "I'm here!"!

Status of their weapons load out would useful too, my wing man went defensive in a mission last night dropped all his stores, took me 20mins to figure out why he would not engage targets.

I was wondering why my wingman would circle around the airfield after I order him to RTB. He would circle at mach speeds, sometimes oddly with the landing gear down and crash.

 

 

 

That was very strange...
