How about having the option to have a time stamp in the chat window. That way you can see when you bombed a target and when it should come back up (without having to use the dot commands)

You can scroll through chat, this was added quite a few versions ago.

The buffer has a scrollbar so you can go back and look at stuff. I'd personally like a timestamp so you know how long ago someone said "CV in sector 9,2 headed East", or "Radar down at A27", and can figure the position/status based on how long ago it was called out...or how long ago someone saluted you or asked a question.

Anyway Hitech can add logging to the chat? for example it saves in a txt file

I think it does this already because if you call HTC and say "So and so said this to me" they can go look it up... or do you mean the chat as a .txt file client side?

Yes client side, with the option for people to save them to a TXT file (by date) or not just like films, being txt files they would not be very big in size.

I'd think they serve little use as evidence. If its a text file, some one can always change it.

This would be good...but wouldn't you run into the issue of who's time??? texas time isn't kiwi,newyork,japan time....unless it worked off the clock in game...but the times would change then too I suppose as down times are real times..
-
it could be done to sync with the client side local time, otherwise tower time would work too.

and mabybe a "ordinance dropped/fired (for rockets) so you can time how long it takes from drop to boom.
Then with enough practice, you will know how long it takes for the bomb to hit from 30,000/25,000 etc... So later if you have a mission and you want crap to be blown up at say 1600 on the dot, you know when you need to be over target to acheive the goal.
Seems like a lot, but its really not.

Not really as evidence, HTC and Skuzzy can review the logs if required, but for other purposes like if you were having a conversation with someone and didn't catch their email or phone number in time.
Secondly if you alter the conversation - they can simply look up their logs and compare and they would find a rat.
