Title: Renaming Squad
Post by: Mongoose on August 25, 2013, 11:19:33 PM
  Is there a way to edit the name of a squad, without disbanding the squad and reforming it?

  While I am at it, why is it that I see multiple squads with the same name?

most times the same name are "wings" of squadron...as 32 players are max in a squad...so they set up wings...

also sometimes others take a name from a squad to be a dick, and dont have anything to do with the squad they stole the name from.

and yes you can change the name without disbanding :aok

Muppets on the Wing was one of my favorite perodies, lol.

The squads are at the core tied to the CO and is where the care msut be exerted.  I believe if the CO changes his name it may disband the squad inadvertently.

Just go into O'Club on game menu, then Squads and enter the new name you want. Then , hit set.
There is also a dot command for it, which every FSO CO should have memorized.

  Ok, I found it.  I was looking for something that said "Edit", or "change", or something similar.  So I missed what was right in front of me. 

  Thanks for the help.
