Status: offline 		I know there are probably a lot more important things to work on but could a feature be considered, when planning air-directives, for a checkbox to pause the game when that any flights relating to the AD are in progress? Then we could set an appropriate message level. Or even better have a box in the AD planning screen where we could type in a msg level if different from default - just for that AD?

You can't slow down all the air phase as it would take forever, but for some of the missions I plan I'd like to have the opportunity to set an appropriate message level and watch in more detail.

I agree though that setting this as part of AD would be nice. Then I wouldn't miss any as the message level would automatically flip for certain types. So you've got my vote.

I currently have to watch a lot of Recon missions, which takes a lot of time (at message level 2) for very little info.
