OK, so I'm new here and maybe this has been suggested before and if so, I apologize for wasting everyone's time but I have seen a lot of posts on private dueling and the problems with outside interference. I'm by no means a computer programmer but it seams easy to me that the powers that be at HiTech could come up with a .duel command similar to the .radio where you would input each others name and enter into a private duel mode. Perhaps the icon below the aircraft could then change to indicate these aircraft were not to be engaged by others. I would also believe that it could be set up so that outsiders guns could not be used against the private duelers and vice versa. This would prevent the private duelers from racking up the kills against the others in the arena. Maybe it could even be set so that options like entering a 3 or 7 in the .command would make the dual a 2 out of 3 or best of 7 match. Others smarter than I could flesh that out. This would eliminate the need for special arenas, extra servers, etc. and hopefully let everyone have a good time without stepping on toes. I hope this helps.

Very Good idea. +1 :aok

The everyone would just change to the .duel icon so nobody would bother them :uhoh

Well you see if we made it for some time limit or haveing only 1 person at a time and the guns dont work for him or you this would solve most of the problems. But they could do .duel and run away. Making this only able to be done in the tower or hanger would solve this problem and make some more. But the general idea is good I'm sure somebody will think of something.

Something conducive to private events. (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php/topic,244440.0.html)

I will give that a 9.5/10 for a first post. :aok

It could be like a join command, you'd have to specify an enemy who was currently in flight and it would only work if they accepted - then both of you would be in duel mode.
However, I'd hate to see this in the MA. The DA is for duels. I'm not saying anything is always fair game in the MA, but IMHO if you feel the need to shut out the outside world altogether, you should be in the DA.

I just heard someone earlier say something like this in the MA, I thought it might be alil hard but would be kinda nice add on.

I guess you haven't tried to duel in the Dueling Arena.
