I once suggested a "camouflage" hanger option that should cost x amount of perks that could hide your icon unless firing, moving, or storch spot (but needs to be closer to spot and non observation planes even closer). after all we have the storch for a reason...

cost x perks 4 this below

Planes are already able to tell what your driving before they see your icon if the settings are right. Just takes a good eye.. So -1 unless you wanna implement something like I suggested. but its your thread.  :salute

Plus blue on blue should be a problem that attack ac have to solve..........

You are implying turning off killshooter, with all the consequences which have been discussed many times in this forum.

Icons should not show unless the vehicle is moving!
 It is easy enough to see GVs without icons as it is.

What about lowering perk loss for gvs if destroyed by bombs vs other gvs? Might disinhibit the use of tigers off pavement.

Another idea for discouraging the bomb tee's.........subtract the perk cost from the bombers' perk account.  :D :rofl :D

I don't think you will see them flying 2 sectors when ords are down.

Why do you keep ASSUMING that I am implying something I did not say..... in a scenario (IMO) it would be best if kill shooter was off....but for the MA (IMO) it would be better on (both blue on blue) ...actually the effect re attack ac being more cautious  would be incurred in both situations....(Scenario & MA)

Now please do not try to read some other agenda in that statement.

The uninitiated would be surprised where I can hide a 70 ton main battle tank.

Sorry about that, but when someone posts incomplete statements, it logically follows that the reader is forced to make assumptions as to meaning.  That was particularly true in connection with the first time that you complained about my inferences.  For this most recent case, your clarification is noted, and your idea approved of.

If you check recent "wishes", I posted a similar suggestion that no perks be lost if the GV was lost to AC.  It got many positive responses, but also a few negative ones.  The latter were generally from people who objected in principle to anything enjoyable to GVers, without thinking about the intent of my OP or about game play consequences.
