Actually this was asked for at the Convention.
First Hitech got a very puzzled look on his face.
Then I explained what the problem was, and why we wanted this.
(CO daddog has terminal case of means turn left, says turn right)
HT (Along with the rest of the con goers) ended up rolling on the floor.
Final words on the subject were something like.
(If gameid = Daddog) then ?????????????? (Ht laughing so loud he wasn't coherent)
In real life minor tweaks to the controls, minor throttle changes allowed large formations to be built, stacked up vertical, etc on the way to target.
In AH we have a rather large obstacle to overcome, lag, and it is not the same for everyone. So true formation flying is virtually impossible. This would let a squadron put together a nice large formation that would be tight.
I doubt HT would actually coad this, because of possible long term large changes in gameplay.
But that is his decision to make.
This would be one small incentive to get more bombers flying in large groups hitting strategic targets.
And instead of the pilots having to sweat bullets flying manually all the way to the target just to stay inside of 2k. They could man the guns instead.
