Preset Formations Via "Follow"

[Emmy]

I was playing in the ME today having some fun creating dissimilar aircraft formations using the "FOLLOW" tools and it struck me that it would have been so much easier if all I had to do was choose an aircraft, go to the waypoint properties and could just tell -2 to follow -1 in Echelon, or Wedge, or Trail, etc and maybe only have to set the distance (or just have WIDE / CLOSE / GROUP CLOSE like in flights) without having to deal with the height or the offset. This would be much simpler for building say, a Vic of B-1s or a "close" echelon of B-52s for a Carpet Bombing mission. It would also streamline escort duties.

 

Just thinking out loud so tuck this in a drawer somewhere for some point down the road.

 

Thanks...
