Paint Targets for Guided Missiles.

Officers or a support class should be able to paint targets for aircraft to shoot guided missiles at. This would be awesome for team work.

I think this might be in the Already Suggested Suggestions. But just in case.

^ What he said. It's being worked on, but it difficult and quite possibly undoable.

One thing without doing much to the game to help teams coordinate air strikes is somehow make it so squad leaders can put multiple markers down for pilots on their mini map to strike key targets. Example Squad leader in 1 goes to his map selects air target map on his hud and marks a tank or bunker. The pilot class can see this just like someone with ammo or medic can see someone that is hurt. This would help me find targets and interact with teams more.

That's not possible and sounds way too complicated on the vBF2 engine. Do a search next time, you already made five different suggestion threads in a matter of minutes and they've all been suggested before.

I do not see how this is hard to do at all. Right now squads put boat markers down for rally points and for targets they want destroyed. If we could make the timer last longer that way people do not have to spam to keep marking things like this that would be nice.

its been suggested before, it can be done in singleplayer IIRC, but causes lots of lag in multiplayer.

thread locked next time please use the search function.
