Title: 2 wishes

1)when clicking on line and u have remember password checked u bypass the user/password screen.

2)a new autopilot feature so that u can lock on to a plane as its wing man. would work the same as the drones for the bomber formations, turn too tight and u lose the lock. the only thing that would be tied would be the flight controls, no weapons.

#2: Why?

What's the fun in formation flying if there's no challenge to keep formation? Why add a feature for something that can be done already? It just requires proper manifold/rpm setting communication, and an alert wingman.

And with #1, what about people with multiple accounts? And again, why implement a feature that saves you one click. Are you in that much of a rush to log on?

I always thought that having your password saved on login wasn't a very good idea from an account security stand point.  Sure, it's convenient but not smart if others have access to your machine.

i agree. i enjoy trying to fly close formation but when flying to a target i like to go and make a drink or have a cigarette, having the auto pilot means i woudnt have to worry about getting separated if the leader changes direction a bit.

I really like that wingman lock idea... for that very reason... Need to piss, take a phone call or go for a smoke? Too easy.
