- I still have a few bitches (what else :) with the PadLok view. I tend to
- get focused on one bogie, and never see/hear his wingman until he guns me
- down from behind. What would be nice is a way of toggling between two
- targets. That way I can still track my primary target while taking a
- look at my 'six to see if any other bogie has slid in and is getting
- ready for a kill.
-
- Overall, I love the PadLok view. Maybe in Falcon 4.0 :) we could have
- the ability to configure how PadLok works on an individual basis.
