jiblet Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 I'm probably missing something really simple but in trying to build my first 2 player mission I wanted to put both players in the same flight and element so that we're each others' wingman. However, while I can set Pig 1-1 to be "Player" or "Client", I only seem to be able to set Pig 1-2 to be AI, there's no "Client" listed. Is there a way to do it that I'm missing? Or do we have to be entirely different flights - which doesn't feel all that cooperative to me!

If you want to fly as a 2 ship, fly as a 2 ship. You just set your SADL IDs, radio frequencies etc as required. The 'Flights' as set in the ME are only applicable to the AI.
Grimes Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) It would be nice to have multiple clients in the same flight... but not yet. The 'Flights' as set in the ME are only applicable to the AI. And triggers... and the ATC... and jtac ... and the tanker. Edited April 13, 2012 by Grimes The right man in the wrong place makes all the difference in the world.

jiblet Posted April 13, 2012 Author Posted April 13, 2012 And triggers... and the ATC... and jtac ... and the tanker. Yeah triggers are what made me start thinking about it. Thanks all.
Eddie Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 It would be nice to have multiple clients in the same flight... but not yet. And triggers... and the ATC... and jtac ... and the tanker. ATC, JTAC and Tanker are AI last time I checked. ;) Although, to be fair as none of them have the ability to handle multi ship flights (even 1 player + AI) in any sort of realistic manner it's still not relevant. Some trigger functions would be made a bit easier I suppose, so I'll give you that.
Grimes Posted April 13, 2012 Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah, guess you are right, AI don't bother letting ATC know they are landing...
