As I have been saying a hundred times before, Laser designator is the best way to solve the blance issue betwin bombers and ground forces. Ground forces has to paint the target for the flying boys otherwise it want show up in their HUD, doing that prevents the flying boys to go on their own bombing mission as lone wolfs.
What I want to have said, Is, if DC can do PRMM can do it ;D

We've had target designation working in single player, but EA seems to have completely broken the net code for it. Would be interesting to see how they're getting round that...

EA have done it again,
ruined for all the great mods.
BTW, could you upload the file for target designation in single player, would be fun to try it out. See how it works

It breaks the SIMRAD in multiplayer if you enable it in SP. Causes a CTD that we couldn't make go away.
We're working on a target designation system .. or at least have a potential idea to make one work, but we haven't yet coded it to validate if our approach is workable.

We have no plans at this point to implement it to work with planes as well. Though I imagine that would be possible down the road. At this point, Kiff is in testing with different python arrangements working with the designator and the M109 in game. There are a few different ways to accomplish what we are currently looking for, so when he finds the best route, I'm sure that's what will be put in the release to start. Whenever we have what we are looking for finished and complete, we will post it in our update section with videos.
They only use theres to spot out for arty, praticly what ares is for if you hold T and selct request arty.
DCon seem to have no intention for them to guid in any bombs or anything like that from aircraft.

well the laser desinator would be good for snipers to pair up and make it more realitic caus ethen maby you could incuirer bullet drop or wind so then the two would have to work together as a team.
