Question - when playing MP mission - how can one enter CPG seat?

[hreich]

If i play a mission on dedicated server, after i spawn inside PLT position in my AH-64D is there a way i can switch to guner position during flight? Can i enable switching seats?

You can't currently switch positions in multiplayer (same with Mi-24P, F-14, and I believe the two-seat trainers, which I don't have so can't verify).

It has changed for the F14 and Wags confirmed it's under dev for the Apache, just wait.

Wow, I hadn’t realized this was changed in the F-14… just read the post about it in the HB/F-14 forum:

New Feature: Switching Seats in Multiplayer

This has been a long standing and frequently requested feature that we’ve wanted to introduce since before the release of the F-14. Only recently, structural changes to the DCS codebase made this actually possible for us to implement. You can now switch between pilot and RIO seat online, just as in Singleplayer!

And if this is coming in the Apache that’s great news (maybe the Hind too?).
