I second an increase in squad size, and if thats not doable, then Anton's idea is a great one.

Where are the MAW's?  They have like 458 members - wouldnt they love this idea?

 But it DOES highlight....  If you're in a mission. ;)   Otherwise use the tried and true ".wingman anton"  dot command.

The real basis for this post is that my squad has exceeded AH squad size limits, causing us to split. Resulting in many of the guys in the squad are currently harder to recognize.

 The .wingman command would be sufficient if I could have more than 1. But thats not the case.  
 
 I have made several attempts to fetch a staff type answer to this topic & the perma-squelch topic, But apparently neither are topics HTC is ready to openly discuss,  Or provide a logical reason why/why not.  Both topics have been on boards for over a week with plenty of response & great input.

 So why even have the feedback forum If yer gonna pick & choose the topics you respond to?

CREATE MISSIONS!

Or did you not try this already?  Missions tune radio 5 to the mission itself.  Highlighting everyone that is in the same mission.  And they're fairly easy to create.

PLUS.... Once created and saved, MISSIONS are easy to modify on the fly (no pun intended)[/b]

Shall we discuss the many problems with mission maker?
 Maybe just the fact that its rather a detailed process, especiially accomidating everyones plane preference, armament/ fuel load. & by the time you get all the mission set up the whole strategic situation has changed.

WHY NOT JUST INCREASE SQUAD SIZE???? Or  ENABLE CH-5 HIGHLITE????????

Making a mission is not a solution to  keeping a large squad highlited, no matter how big or what color you type the suggestion in. But thanks anyway.
