New dot command
« on: May 18, 2012, 06:39:54 PM »
I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to add a .locate command to center any base (friendly or enemy) on the map, its just a pain trying to find an enemy base since you cant do the .move command like you can for friendly bases. Just a thought.

You started this thread and it was obviously about your want and desire in spite of your use of 'we' and Google.

A definite +1 to this.  Would make it easy to locate a friendly base as well when you are in flight. :aok

seriously we can't go one serious conversation with out a attack on us

and everyone has done that no matter what group your in the numbers don't always make sense where they are

and for you information DALLAS yeah hes one of our good leaders and i would take him loki dogfite gazoo razz jarbo or any other of our cammad staff running a mission than almost anyone in game shoot i'll even take some of our lower member i could honestly say that of any squad out there find one who has more people who can run a competent mission done right and that more people are willing to follow you all hate on us so much cause you know we work well together

give reaper his props on a great idea leave the v jokes out of it take them to the whinners forum (200)

Actually I'm one not for this method. I believe that you should uncover the airfields as your plane advances.

Ex. Somebody sends a plane (whatever it is) and moves into enemy territory, each sector they go through that sector is unlock and the airfields, vbases, city, or HQ becomes visible on the map.

This would make people more eager to go behind lines and stop hoarding airfields.
