Hi,
I was wondering if there was any news that can give me hope on some issues that are still present?
1) Missing mirrors - Would it be possible to run a process that mimicks loading and closing a single mission for the first time that a multiplayer mission is started? Hide it behind a second loading screen or something? I'd be ok with an extra 30 seconds to a minute (or whatever) of loading screen (on the first instance only) rather than rage-quitting after I join a server, check loadout and skin, plan my flight, start my engines, taxi to runway,. then realise I have no mirror.
2) AI not using AttackAir after they've used it once - I've raised this before but would really like to know the official stance if possible, can TF access the code for this? Does someone have the knowledge to fix it?
3) AI jumping to last waypoint after engagement - Similar to above, can TF access this code, does someone have the knowledge to alter it?
4) Leader saying 'I can barely see you' - Can this be altered so it only operates when you are within 1km (or similar) of the leader? Do TF has access to this sort of code?
5) Can TF put user any more user-friendly triggers in the FMB? For example a 'pass into' rather than 'pass through'. I know it can be done with script but the lack of a 'making life eaiser' change like this gives the impression of not caring.
6) Draw distance for buildings - Now this may just be me being lazy and not looking properly in the options, but buildings seem to pop in very late; I mean targets, airfields, piers. I pretty much have to scan in 'lean to ginsight mode' constantly. Seeing your target is a massive part of the game, can this be improved? If it is limited for performance, can this be made an option in single player at least, especially when flying a bomber it is ALL about seeing navigation points, target and your home base.
7) Bonkers movement of ground vehicles; based on splines or whatever it is. Just makes me weep.
I realise that these points can be percieved as, or indeed are, unfair criticisms and it is never nice to have work criticised, but I stress CloD has the best flying experience, damage, engine management etc. etc. and I love simple things like the colour of the sea in Africa. No other sim that I have tried can give these elements, but the my current concern is that if these things are not being addressed, is it then that they simply cannot be addressed because the code is not accessible? So am I dreaming of miracles?
