Event 9 squadron communication

[Dentedend10]

Hi,

Upon completion of the training, I was low on fuel and wanted to refuel. I was squadron leader. I wanted to send 1 and 2 to return to base while 3 and 4 refuels.

I tried to communicate that on different frequencies but did not receive any response and 1 and 2 stayed with me. 
I wonder if I was not able to communicate with them because we were tuned to different frequencies? This was after checking out on Channel 1 and 14. 
looking at the NATOPS it says that communication within the squadron was mostly done using hand signals. I have been wondering about the logistics of communicating with wingmen. After leaving the range, what frequency would the squadron normally be tuned to to allow communication like that? Or would it be done by hand gestures?

How fun would it be if we had hand gesture communication with the pilot body imitating!

Hi! The built in comms menu doesn't work in the campaign, because the other Snipers are set up as separate groups. This is the only way I could control them in the mission editor. When refueling, all others will act automatically, without radio comms  - as if you were using hand signals.

Great to know, thank you! Looking forward to Speed and Angels
