Is there some relationship between chat and comms where I need to have some thing activated in one for the other to work?

Thanks

I'm not really sure what you are asking for mate, there is no specific "setup" for the AI Comms as such...just the default menu system.

By way of examples...using the default keys (Single player offline):

1. To order your flight to fly at a far spacing when in formation...
Press TAB which brings up the Comms menu.
Press 6 (Navigation) which brings up a new submenu
Press 2 (Spacing) whcih brings up another new submenu
Press 4 (Far) and watch your wingmen peel off and fly with a larger distance between you and them.

2. To Order your flight to attack any enemy....
Press TAB which brings up the Comms menu.
Press 5 (Air Targets)
Press 2 (All)
As I mentioned, this particular command often but not always works for me.

3. To ask Ground Control for vectors to home base (what direction do I fly to get home?)
Press TAB which brings up the Comms menu.
Press 7 (Ground Control)
Press 2 (Vector to Home Base)

I'd suggest running a quick mission and just sit in the cockpit and press all the buttons to see what commands are available...and test them in missions on the fly to see what works and when.

Cheers
