any chance on a coad for finding squad in general?
instead of typing out each players name
say .f "475th FG "Satans Angels"
showing where the squad is......just wondering

I wonder if it would be just as easy if when a Player ID was typed in...it would automatically show all the players of that squad and what arena they are in? However..if the list was 10 or more it might scroll away from yas if text is very active in the arena you are typing from. suppose you could just type it a few times to get a general count.

Id like the roster window to show the players in all 3 MAs on a single roster. Maybe color code it or something.

i still say a buddy list is the best idea. One where we could add as many people as we would like and then also talk to them by just clicking on their name no matter what arena they are in. I think HT has a lot on his plate right now, but this is a pretty important feature IMO.

How about ".f squad ********" and it pops only the online mebers and what arenas theyre in? In my case, ".f squad corkyjr", since Dan is the squad leader, and anyone in that squad whos online and in one of the MAs pops up.

Like ".f"ing the whole squad roster in one shot, but not getting the "is not online" responses- just the ones who are, and where they are.

But this way you can check any squad in one shot, not just your own.

Yes it posible.

SlapShot · « **Reply #7 on:** September 28, 2006, 10:40:41 AM »

It could be ...

".f squad" ... this would default to the squad your in ...HT knows what squad we are in.

or

".f squad xxxxx" ... to find where another squad is so you can fly with or against them.

Not sure we should have a .F command. Use a different letter or people will be using the F command by accident when they get shot down, lol

Imagine my surprise upon trying .f pyro and seeing "HTC_HUB: Pyro is in MW1.

Well, just last night I was really wishing we could see the roster and numbers in the other arenas.

Having that roster would help find folks NOT in your squad, and/or maybe you're not sure how they spell their handle.

You might not want to give up your place in a full aena just so that you could see what was happening in the others.

With the roster, you could be alerted to emergency situations or better fight opportunities, if and when they occurred, without having to walk away from your precious place in the full Late War 1 Arena.

I don't know if it's possible, but it would be cool if it was.

It would be awesome if vox channel, and private vox would go accross all three arena's, so you could talk with squadies no matter what arena they are in.

The every day comradery poking fun at each other on vox, was as much of the squad atmosphere as doing missions together. Just cause we aren't in the same arena, I don't see any harm in being able to comunicate to one another.

This could potentially cover all the requests above, in that if you wanted to know where all of the squadies were just ask them.

Just a thought.

JMFJ, we've got a discussion going in wishlist where someone suggested having channels 300-399 work across arenas the wat 200-299 work across countries.

JMFJ · « **Reply #14 on:** September 28, 2006, 04:53:57 PM »

Cool then I'm not the only one.

I don't know if the 300-399 is really necessary, I'd assume knowing the way our squad is we'd just make 399 be our new squad channel rather 199, so everyone can communicate. But I'll happily take whatever I can get.

But expanding the VOX capabilities would make it way easier to find squadies, get guys grouped up for squad night, and just general conversation.
