Although my opinion counts for little since I'm not able to influence the decision by coding :-)

Yes - if I remember right, OS' MP server has for some time now ensured that your client only gets data about other a/c if they're within a certain (20 or 30 mile?) radius. So you are encouraged to join a MP server every time you take FG for a spin - the more the merrier :-) > Speech (except pilots role in ATC) is not a real feature for me due to > my bad English knowledge. If someone asks anything and you reply 5 > minutes later, this might be a little strange :-) Ah sorry, I forgot about the language difficulty... your emails are well written but I understand that working in another language can be slow and a lot of effort. Actually, I'm constantly put to shame by the number of non-native English speakers on the IRC channel and their fluency - it's easy to forget that English is not their first language. I'm afraid in this country learning foreign languages is usually (or certainly was when I was at school, not all _that_ long ago) a very low priority. > But nice to see, observe or accompany you guys when flying MP, thank you > very much for this feature! Yes, it's nice to have "company" in the simulated skies - OS, Vivian and a few other developers have put (and are putting) a lot of work into it. Not being a C++ programmer, the best I can do is to help with testing :-| Cheers, AJ ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
