The mustache issue
 

I remember a while back during development there were several screens posted showing pilots both with and without mustaches.

However, I don't think this feature has been given the attention it deserves. I think a good feature would be to have a checkbox for "Pilot mustache" because having a mustached "self-pilot" image or that of a bogey can be essential to creating an immersive environment.

Then again, I do not always fancy mustaches in-game. Others I have talked to in the community agree. I propose that perhaps some sort of in-game mustache toggle on-off command be developed. There could also be an icon showing whether or not you have mustaches enabled near the throttle quadrant display, it could be perhaps a mustache over your engine controls, or just beside them if that is too distracting. It most certainly could be too distracting, too, because mustaches are so awesome.

But not always.

you forgot "fruit" in the middle of your nickname.


But yes, tashes are FTW

Chuck Norris. Mustache.

hahahaha :grin:

Chuck Norris who?! Oleg Maddox had moustache!! :cool:

Oleg shaved his off before release so he could deny all knowledge! ;)

I'm told that Oleg's moustache was a placeholder, for the beard he intended to grow.

Uther - while I would firmly support 3rd party modding to create the means of that end, I wouldn't endorse it for online play or inclusion in the stock game version. Some would consider it quite an unfair advantage.

Facial hair was at times paramount to determining which way an air battle might sway.

Perhaps it should be a difficulty option.

Aha the old modding argument! I will counter argue that having a full beard blowing back in your face at the wrong moment in combat would be a disadvantage!
