Vice, Is there any way (without to much trouble) you could make it so when you click on load pilot , it shows what ship you are flying, and maybe the loadout?

It would likely require a toggle menu of some kind to replace the existing profile data with the frame and loadout info. I'll write it on my concept list and check into how feasible it is.

I like that idea. If you could show both loadout and pilot statistics, it would give a little additional flair to the pilot selection screen.

This sounds good, I have various profiles with different loadouts for different scenario's. It would assist in preventing loading on the wrong profile. At the moment I use a hand written list which is fine but not MRS CW proof. A womans need to tidy and put away can be the downfall of many men:D:P;):cool:

Ah yes! the ol', "Well, if it was important, you shouldn't have left it lying around!" scenario.
Men & women have two different ideas of what "Tidy" & "Accessible" mean.
The standard procedure in those instances is to do everything in duplicate and hide one.

Or you could get one like mine that doesn't tidy much at all unless the subject is brought up with emphasis. :D And she never does it on the computer... hence the reason we have separate computers I stay away from hers (since nothing can be located when you need it in that universe). :P

Silly you! You don't "buy" women. You just keep giving them gifts.
Buying", as everyman knows, would be cheaper, easier, more practical, and less hard on the nerves, and would then probably allow for trade-ins.
Women, have never been to keen on that particular idea.
On the other hand, when the leave, they tend to take everything you ever had with them.
Alas, I'll stick with my deaf, mute, nymphomaniac, with the bar.:P

I was referring to the fact he said they take everything with them when they leave... so if she takes the bar he goes with it if he's sitting at it.

I am sitting at the bar because I said she was a deaf, mute, nymphomaniac. I did NOT say she was good looking!:P
You can't have everything, y'know!;)

This conversation is hilarious. I'd prefer not to show my girlfriend how you guys talk about women, but alas, she was reading along. You made a pretty good example of how much a gentlemen I am compared to the average male.

(Okay, she's not looking anymore: you guys are totally right!)

I agree. This has gotten out of hand. I believe the heading for this thread is, "Ship Loadout".
I'm not entirely sure how that relates to "deaf, mute, nymphomaniacs.
But, since I am responsible for taking it this far afield, I think I'll just have another beer, put a bag over the ol' girls face and call it a night!:P

What, only one bag? What happens if it breaks? Thats why there are three types:

One bagger
Two bagger
Stumper


For explanations, please U2U!!

I assure you, sir. My ol' Lady is a "one bagger".
I am familiar with the "two bagger" phrase, but I am at a loss as to what a "stumper" is.
If it's worse than a "two bagger", then there isn't enough alcohol in the world. At least for me. I have some pride!;)
