remap the bail command keys from enter to....

shift enter

then you have to hold down shift key and press enter 3 times.

still as easy to bail but you wont bail accidentally anymore.

this has been fester's training tip for the day

Mine is set to the P key.

I rarely use it though. I prefer to ride it down into the ground. Hopefully my enemy will die before I hit the ground, but if you bail you never know.

I've gotten a few kills that way.

You can bail out?

Good idea. I just completely un-mapped mine, but I need to re-map it--just in case I need to bail out during a TOD. (then again, don't think it makes a difference during a TOD either. need to check)

Fatty knows dang well he couldn't bail if he wanted to he's jammed into the cockpit. We have to pry him out.

odd. I've never acidentally bailed out. how is that done exactly? my hand is never near the enter key much less near it 3 times.

I thought ESCAPE was the perfect place to map Bail Out. So thats where mine is.

C'mon guys, accidental bailing was a frequent and unfortunate occurrence during WWII. I thought you dweebs wanted realism.... sheesh.
