if player switches to external views...

[Kadin]

DCS looks amazing in 4k and therefore I would like to keep external views enabled.  However, I would like a message to go up for everybody when a player switches to external views and when back in cockpit.  Is this an even that can be handled through triggers or lua scripts?

Any feedback will be very appreciated

I don't believe there is unfortunately. If your concern is players 'cheating' by using this when they're dogfighting, a better approach I could see would be for ED to give mission writers the ability to enable and disable this feature on a per client basis than just to say whether someone has done this or not. Then through an checks could be done to see if the client is within x miles from an enemy aircraft and if so disable this option otherwise enable it.

But as for how to achieve either what you're requesting, or what I've suggested - to the extent of my knowledge I don't believe either is possible in DCS at this time sorry.

Thank you, Dangerzone.  I appreciate the reply.  Food for thought, though :)
