Can someone remind me where -- under what menu(s) -- to find the on/off setting for Killshooter when setting up offline/custom arenas?
I briefly looked through the settings but couldn't seem to locate that one.
Thanks!

"Killshooter" determines whether or not you can do damage to a friendly (same country).
With Killshooter "on", as it is hard-coded into the Main Arenas, shooting a friendly does not damage the other plane and instead inflicts the damage to your own plane/vehicle -- hence, it kills the shooter.
With Killshooter "off", if you shoot a friendly they actually take the damage (so you can have friendly-fire incidents). This is usually the setting in certain historical and squad events (like FSO).
It can be turned on/off by you only in custom arenas or offline.

With killshooter on, you can't die from friendly fire. Someone firing on a teammate will only kill themselves. In a custom arena, you turn killshooter off, and you play tag. It's a good fun way to practice basic dogfighting.
