I only got a fuel-bar on the right side when i have a single aircraft...

Just an idea.

Status: offline 		If and when we address this need to show more than one bar as the units all have discrete fuel values. I think the challenge is real estate in the dialog. Anyways...Its on our list. We'll get to it one day.

Thanks!

Btw 9 on the numpad is switch to individual unit view mode.

Status: offline 		In addition, and possibly more so than just the fuel status, I would be very interested in being able to see the other figures such as endurance, fuel left before bingo etc. Displaying the figures for the unit in a group with the least fuel would be satisfactory (only other options are an average, which would be less useful, or displaying figures for all aircraft, which would be impractical).

Having to zoom in and toggle individual unit view on/off is a pain

Status: offline 		+1 to request. I think fuel status bar for unit with least fuel level in grup would be helpfull. For now, You have to press 9 to change group display, deselect group, and select each unit one by one to check fuel.

Enthusiastic +1 (sorry for the thread jacking). With aerial refueling resolved as it has been the need for a "master bingo override per sortie" is admittedly less needed. But, my desire to fire off one more missile happens often enough. Bingo is still the kiss of sortie death. :/

Many thanks for even giving this 1/2 a thought, devs.
