New crew position - bombardier

[TP_Silk]

Posted here to make suggestions seen in other parts of the forum an official 'Suggestion'

 

I've seen a few suggestions regarding letting a player in one of the gunner slots on a multi-crew aircraft use the bomb sight. I believe this would be a great idea although achieving it may be a technical challenge. Mostly I think that it may be necessary to allow the pilot to flag a single gunner position as the aircraft bombardier thus allowing a player that occupies that gunner position access to the bomb sight.

It would almost certainly be necessary to have this turned off by default and something that a pilot would have to actively turn on in order to help prevent misuse.

 

Please feel free to expand and discuss.
