Title: /dst for pilots
Post by: Turnpike on April 07, 2013, 15:51
My suggestion is for pilots to have the ability to use the command /dst the same way truckers do. The reason i'm suggesting this is because when I am flying somewhere over a big body of water, such as Wet County to Las Venturas Island, it would be nice to know how far away the airport is, since I wouldn't be able to tell by the scenery around me. This is just a minor suggestion, I don't think it would take very long to script, and it would make pilots' jobs just a little bit easier. Please tell me what you think about this idea :D

the place where you are flying to is listed at the bottom


"flight from X airport to X airport" is on the bottom of your screen.. please read the monitor before you suggest something like this, or at least pay attention

He's not suggesting to show the location but the distance instead..

truckers dont have the "distance left," why should pilots?

they do, as far as I know when you are a trucker you can type /dst, and it will say how far your destination is from your current location

Just double checked, and yes truckers do have the ability to see how far they are from their destination. Why shouldn't pilots be able to do the same?

I never saw the distance thing in /dst until a few minutes ago, so I change my opinion, and agree with you
